Not really a Vauxhall fan, but I have to say, it's good to see an absolute ground up build, by a lady which lets be honest is quite unusual. The fact Ash has blown it up a few times yet stuck with it and kept on going through all the stress of the problems, and made this machine which is really pushing the limits of the engine and what it is capable of. I ran a 455bhp/634nm M140i for 4 years, and appreciate the B58 is so easy to get big power from, and to get the same from the Vauxhall lump is really something. I'm not going to lie, the styling of this is absolutely not my thing, I prefer a sleeper, but each to their own and good on Ash for doing things in her unique own way.
@@Vinnievxr666 I had it like that for 4 years, but last November, after 90 mins of hooning round the countryside in traction off mode, sideways everywhere, I was coming home at normal traffic speeds, and as I accelerated away from a roundabout with about 1/2 throttle, I hit a patch of diesel and the car went sideways, which I held fine. But as I came off the slippy onto the grippy tarmac, the car spat me round 180 in a microsecond, I couldn't do a thing about it. Backwards off the road at 50mph into a tree. Car was a write off, it creased the C pillar and rippled the roof. Bit gutted, but I'm now rolling in an OG M2, which is slower in a straight line, but on another level for everything else.
@@DjNikGnashersno sorry to hear that mate I know what they are like we’ve got a E92 M3 and i love driving that lol What is yours M2 running at the moment?
@@Vinnievxr666 I got it in December last year when the insurance paid out for the M140i. It was a 1 owner from new (lady owner), with FSH, and 25,800 miles on. It is totally standard, and I think I'm going to keep it that way, as it seems too good and too original to mod, plus the N55 doesn't respond to tuning in the same way the B58 does. It needs a few little bits to get it how I want it ie absolutely mint, but it's not too far off now. i.imgur.com/oqyfw9C.jpg
The only Vauxhall I would say that’s easy to get that sort of power without forging is the Vectra VXR. Which has been proven many times to push between 600-700BHP in stock internals
You know thats the first time the wife has sat down & watched a full video on your chanel Vinnie, as she is a massive pink fan too. Well done Ash, an amazing car, I just cant imagine how much it all costs.
First of all a big thank you to the wife 🙌🏼👍🏼 and yes mate, she has done well with it I can’t imagine how much she’s put into this You can guess it’s probably a lot
@@Vinnievxr666 Im still on the stock turbo at the min the engines forged with the usual mods gonna upgrade the turbo soon either the rs unit or big turbo set up 😀
Great video once again vin! Ash seems like a nice lass that knows her stuff. Great to see. I can imagine it was funny at certain times with many innuendos being laughed about 😂 look forward to seeing this at shows
@Vinnievxr666 does make things easier to talk about doesn't it! If she hadn't got a clue, would of made it a lot harder for you. Look forward to the next installment to the series
Absolutely loved my astra and had plans to do modifications and such later on but 6 weeks ago it was written off by a land rover discovery I miss that car 😢
I am a Astra G fan.. remember when the H came out and I never really accepted the huge change. The spoielr is defo too much... BUT I respect you and your project! You went from start to the end. Sry there are ppl like us who can't shut up ;p
Hello mate, yeah that’s not a problem. Basically the top end of the engine block has got waterways where the head gasket goes, and what they do, is they get a bit of the same material as of the engine and wedge it in the waterways just to make it stronger so act as if it’s a close deck block mate
Nice build.. very similar spec/set up too mine at mo… mines running 485bhp at mo built & tuned buy giz motorsport & I love it right weapon..!! I dunno bout the coulor of hers but is a girl car & the massive wang has got to go 🤣 but each to there own fair play to her..
450 bhp very good but question how long this 2 litre 4 pot engine will last? Don't think very long and also as we know Vauxhall engine are not reliable!
@ashleighearl25 Well, you obviously love your car enough to of done all that work so fair play. I do have a soft spot for the VXR, but I'd never own one after my nightmare of a corsa 🙄 I stick with jap 😁
Yeah, now she’s got the swell pot done she should be running 500bhp very soon and sometimes you gotta go through a lot of crap to get to your happy place that’s the Z20 life 🤣
she really seems to know stuff about modifying and tuning very impressive build love the cammed tickover
Loving the car feature content Vinnie! Hats off to Ashlee for building her car the way she wants it…very cool.
Thank you so much mate really appreciate it 🙌🏼

I’m 100% behind you on that mate but still an M140i with 634nm must be still pretty insane have you still got it?

Ford guy here, can someone tell me what unwedged is please

@Vinnievxr666 ohhh okay so it's like when focus st get a blockmod and they put shims between the liners to stop them from cracking
@@Focusstmk2.5 yeah mate that’s exactly that 👍🏼
@@Focusstmk2.5 what bhp is yours run? And whereabouts are you located mate
@Vinnievxr666 I've not got a vxr mate I have a focus
Mad build 👌 also whats the tune at 1:05? Please
Hello mate, I’m not too sure the name of it I’ve got it from Epidemic Sound trying to find out for you
I absolutely hate how cheesy the love heart exhaust is but fairplay for being different lol
Yeah but for a girls Car it’s is a wicked touch and thanks mate 👍🏼
Deffo give it a go!
So sick
Yes mate she has done well with it 👌🏼
Mint😊
Love to see the 8000watts of audio in the car 😜
So she's had a few heads,and like a stiff ride...top build girl 😜🤟
Let’s keep this respectable for the lady. Please 🙏🏼👍🏼
@Vinnievxr666 Okay apologies 🙏
@@RCTurbo79 no, that’s absolutely cool mate it’s all good 👍🏼
Nice motor be better without the wing tho
love the car hate the spoiler
Where’s the big wing from 👀
Hello mate, I’m not too sure who it’s from, but there is a guy on Vxr Owners Club who makes them
She seems a lovely lady. And a great build. But Pink 😆 🤣 😂 I can't take it. But good luck to her

Like she said 6 rebuilds already
@@christaylor1753probably 66 rebuilds
Proper girls toy that vinnie
Yes It is and I know it sounds funny and I’m very happy with my sexuality but I do like it 👍🏼
Definitely built not brought this motor nice one Vinnie
Yeah, definitely a good build mate we need to get yours on the channel if you’re up for it 🙏🏼
@Vinnievxr666 definitely up for it, mate, but you know how it is always something going on. I'll let you know when's a good time asap
@@vxr_greenmachine yeah I fully understand mate and please do I’m ready when you are 💯🔥
What does wedging mean
It’s where they put a metal material between the water jackets to stop the piston slave from breaking mate
She likes it stiff....all jokes aside beautiful car, beautiful owner
Dont know who more sexyer the car or Ash
Nice girl.))
When it build by a garage 😂😂
poor clutch tho man XD
It's a 6 paddle clutch and ttv solid flywheel. It's built to be driven 😅
Check out my 320bhp vectra 👀
Hot OPC Girl❤️😍
If it's blown 6 times, doesn't that tell you something? 😂
Yeah it had a fuel pump issue several years ago. Went undiagnosed until a decent mapper diagnosed it
@ashleighearl25 Well, you obviously love your car enough to of done all that work so fair play. I do have a soft spot for the VXR, but I'd never own one after my nightmare of a corsa 🙄 I stick with jap 😁
Hard to stay professional around a bird like that who says she prefers it stiff 👀👀
Probably really fun to drive but all that & still not 500bhp & blown up 6 times Facking hell. 😳😂
Yeah, now she’s got the swell pot done she should be running 500bhp very soon and sometimes you gotta go through a lot of crap to get to your happy place that’s the Z20 life 🤣
Sorry but I couldn’t ignore the I like the ride quite stiff!!! Lol sorry 😜🤷♂️
Gone though 6 engines in 10 years😂😂, what clowns are building them or mapping them?!? Not even crazy power ffs lol
One hell of a car but not near fully built if you full build be around 950hp but it's too expensive to push that far
