Pretty impressive... :wink:
Have you run your Astra on the 1/4? I'd be curious to know how it runs...haven't heard or seen of too many modded turbos out there.
Went cruising in Perth on Friday night... good results...
Went up against an '02 WRX STi and beat him twice! Was well chuffed. He was stock and not getting good starts... I realise that, but impressed none-the-less.
Then had a rolling run with another of the same build but modded (low 12s for the 1/4).
Here's what he had to say...
Go the Astra!The Astra went hard....definitely the most responsive turbo car I've seen in a long time!!
Going up to Pinnaroo Point, the Astra was next to me and Ryan nailed it, and I nailed it also....by the time my turbo spooled up, the Astra was already in front of me in my lane!!! I'm sure I would have probably caught it when the turbo came on full boost, but hey, too little too late.
I've replaced intake and exhaust, installed GReddy EBC - so don't try that stock!
- 215HP at the boots -
