Anyways just thought id say hello so...... HI! :)

[chrissn89]

Hello Jen welcome to Opelaus, nice little turbo you have there. Plenty of helpful info on here, search away. If you cant find what your after just ask :)

Have you done any performance mods??


Chris,

[JEN704]

No, haven't had any mods. Boyfriend wants me to he also wants to put a rocket switch in... lol

[btm]

hey jen and welcome to the site

another black G SRiT to add to the list...

[chrissn89]

Best bang for your bucks would be the Re-map. Adds more power :)

[Neeko]

[JEN704]

What's involved in re-mapping??

[Neeko]

What's involved in re-mapping??

taking your astra to the nearest person on opelaus thats does the re-mapping. takes about 15 minutes hand him $400 and off you go again. its so incredibly simple.

where abouts are you located?

[JEN704]

Gold Coast :)

[Neeko]

Gold Coast :)

oh how simple the world can be :) um send auzvectra a pm. He's at Logan i believe. Just ask him for a re-map.

[JEN704]

Cool thanks :)

[Neeko]

Cool thanks :)

[JEN704]

[JEN704]

can I just keep replying to myself?

[btm]

i think you just answered your own question :)

[JEN704]

two more.... lol

[JEN704]

one more.... :cool:

[JEN704]

YAY! 10 haha.. the fun is over.

[btm]

how long have you owned the car for?

[JEN704]

how long have you owned the car for?

Had it for about year and a half...

All i've done is tinted the windows and put mags on it.
Ive got a turbo timer and blowoff valve but need to get them installed.

Do you know if they are both easy to install?

[Neeko]

YAY! 10 haha.. the fun is over.

lol there ya go. now you can see what we drive :cool:

if i were you i wouldnt put the blow off valve on. I'd just stick a pod filter on and you'll get the blow off valve sound :) The stock airbox silences all noises that come from the engine so the stock blow off sound will never be heard.

Chris that posted in here before only has a pod filter and it makes the loudest "hatchu" noises. We also disconnected a tiny breather hose so now it has turbo flutter. Sounds soo hot

well... :p I should have came on here before i spent money on a blow off valve :rolleyes:

BOV will need to be twin piston in order to work on a astra.

I have one and yes you get the noise by adding a pod filter but a BOV simply doubles that sound;)

What BOV do you have? Should only take 10 minutes if you have all the hardware.

I don't know the brand :)..... but I got it from autobarn

[CNBLU]

haha ok. Should have a label on the box? Probably better off taking it back and buying a pod filter.

I can't find it atm.... It must be in my car. The turbo timer is greddy .... only remember that because i opened the box and saw the instructions were all in japanese or chinese.

[CNBLU]

Thats the same as mine. Got mine installed at Autobarn for $60.

[JEN704]
