i found that the astra coupe pistons drop the compression really well too.

Hi Guys, its been a while. Has anybody got a ph2 or ph3 firmware map for me please. Thanks a mill once again.

managed to break a valve, half through the head, other half into the piston.

Thanks, have to show what 8v power can do.

Current Build I Cant wait to boost this one.

Current Motor in Astra

lol, will post some pics after this weekend

After doing just about all i can to 160 estate Normally aspirated (95kw) i have decided to go 1 step further, Almost finished my 2 lit 8v Gsi Motor, Will be bolting the turbo kit on as soon as i have run it in (1st 1000 km) Will be posting pics soon,

im dropping a 2lit gsi into my astra 160i. it has a f15 garebox but want to keep the same box, how can i modify the 2lit flywheel to take the 1.6 clutch kit, Cant put the 2lit clutch kit because the F15 bell housing is to small, Thanks a mill.

i have a Astra 160ie and i'm in the process of turbo charging it, it currently has a 270Deg cam in it, is it ok for me to keep that cam in or will i need to get a standard cam, 270 is a very mild cam so i'm not sure if i will get overlap or not with it. Thanks a mill.

hi Guys, I'm wanting to turbo charge my astra 1.6 8v (it has the c16se motor). i want to boost between .5 and .7 bar, would putting 2 head gaskets be good enough or will i need a space plate as well. Thanks a mill,

Hi Guys, i got an astra estate 1.6 with a c16se motor in it, i want to put a .5 - .7 bar turbo onto it, i'm just a little concerned about the con rod's, i will raise the head to drop the compression but will the standard con rods be okay, and how much should i lift the head. Thanks a mill

that i can see, i have so much to learn.
