This is beautiful I have this car in black! engine is in the process of being forged with pec H beam con rods, arp bolts, wossner pistons, mahle bearings new timing chain. After seeing this I need to get in touch for a re-Map soon.
i have a similar induction kit from RSS, and a hose/intercooler kit from Airtec, plus de-cat and 76mm exhaust only with final exhaust, it's too loud lol. Coldstarts are nightmare for neighbors
Hi Guys so when a AIRTECK induction kit is fitted.. Does it have to get a new remap.. Even though it has VXR mode . As I've been told it will break the engine.. If it's remapped without being FORGED 1st.. Pls can y help me out on this 1 lads ta :)

Hi mate did you end up forging the engine? If so, how has it been performing? Looking to do the same 👍🏽
Sounds very good
Thanks 4 the chat earlier Fab.. Hope I get 2 the bottom of it in the end!?
I’m a few years late to the party but how much would this full upgrade run? I’m looking to do the same on mine.
I've read reports of the pistons breaking on this model of VXR, have you come across this and is only happening on modified engines?
not on these models, the cars 1.6 suffer with piston 4 issues.
i had an arden blue gsi turbo and i had to go the miltek way and they r the best by miles
All that work done how much would all that cost not got Astra vxr yet but thinking of getting one lol

does the astra still have issues with piston 4 like the corsa ?
Nope
How would you get heat soak?? Does the air no flow straight into a red hot turbo?
its to keep intake temps cool matey, colder air is better for the turbo
Heat from the engine, need to have a heat shield, to stop the intake taking in hot air as it ruins the fuel air mixture, you will loose power
Mate I have a groaning coming from my steering any ideas what it could be it's going in for a fluid flush

@Ross McKnight I changed the gearbox oil and it mostly went away,, it's The dif making the noise so a specialist told me
@Ross McKnight haha no worries pal do the gearbox oil with Fuchs Titan race it should sort the groaning out pal,,
@Ross McKnight yes do mate I know the groaning is really annoying but it will be better but unfortunately the diffs are harsh on these astras,,
@@paulbennett6379hi what kind of symptoms do you get with the diff playing up? Feel like I could be getting this on mine…

Loud 😂😂 next joke my farts are louder then that 😂😂
bloody hell, I wouldn't get a job as a stand up comedian any time soon chap ! haha
The shortest way to kill the engine of this lovely car. The air filter sucking loads of scorching air from under the bonnet? It must finish badly.
that why the heat shield is there buddy to stop heat soak
