\"Vauxhall<\/a><\/p>\n

Adam Beard built a unique Vauxhall Adam<\/a> on his channel Twin Engine Corsa<\/a>. Adam acquired the city car with a broken 1.4 L Ecotec inline-four. These engines producing approximately 86-99 hp (64-73 kW). Adam swapped the inline-four for a turbocharged 2.8 L V6 and six-speed manual transmission from a Vectra VXR using custom mounts. Adam upgraded the V6 with a Holset HX52 turbocharger and custom exhaust. Power is sent to the front wheels through custom driveshafts. EFI Parts<\/a> tuned the motor into making 431 hp (321 kW) and 365 lb-ft (494 Nm) of torque on 1 bar of boost. The next phase of the project is converting from FWD to 4WD.<\/p>\n
