We take a peek at Insignia tuning and outline the optimum modifications. Vauxhall Insignias are good project cars and with the right performance upgrades you can substantially maximise your driving enjoyment.
You can do a lot to improve the performance of your Insignia with our step by step tuning tips. Sit down first and research Insignia tuning to avoid making the usual expensive slip ups we see.
Performance gains are possible with the addition of bonnet vents.
Warm air really does kill performance. This is due to the air intake temperatures being hot and air at high temperatures carries less oxygen.
When driving an engine hard the under bonnet temperatures quickly build up and the engine has no choice but to suck this air in reducing your power.
