Looks like you had fun, just be careful not to fall into the trap so many corsa owner your age has Sad

Check exit pipe diameters, 4 inch is big, not the biggest, but it's big, mine's 3 inch and that's pushing it :/

Your spinning and lack of expected responsiveness is down to suspension and the fact it's a heavy car, a lot of first timers are surprised by how much steering work is required if you're pushing it hard and how heavy road cars feel.
That doesn't mean try and lighten it, i'm talking a rock hard suspension race car with nothing in it, waste of time for the road.

Your non working 4WS will not be helping as you've basically just driven a car harder than it'll get 98% of the time with an actual fault light on the dash because the system is disabled and set to a mode to let you get to a garage.

Straight through exhausts are *waaay* too loud for the road, trust me Wink

Yes as Madmaxx has said, on a na engine a 4 inch backbox won't give you any more of a power gain than a 2.5-3 inch exhaust and will infact lose you power. That's unless you're just doing it for the looks and not performance. On a forced induction engine then a 4-5 inch would give a performance benefit.

2.5" diamter pipe is good. Don't think a 4" back box exit will be much of a problem.
