    TX Autosports...

    So I am new to all this tuning business but over the last few months of watching and researching I think I am finally getting to grips with some of it Click here to enlarge

    The big boys in Opel / Vauxhall tuning seem to be Courteney's and Regal, however I have noticed a few other companies who specialise in this as well...

    Which brings me onto TX Autosports... They seem to be very reasonably priced, a lot cheaper than some of the other companies for most things... Question is, are they any good?

    Be nice, I am a n00b Click here to enlarge

    Some of their things are good, have heard bad things about one or two of their items in the past

    pretty cheap, quality is kind of reflected in that.
    I decided against their FMIC kit due to potential issues with the fan setup, spent the couple of hundred extra on a courtenay one...

    Probably grab one of their airbox kits though as its a relatively simple item.

    I have sourced the vast majority of my parts from Courtenay Sport. They are a quality outfit and provide excellent advice - talk to Mark Watts. I've used Regal once and had an unhappy experience. That said, others on here use Regal and may wish to comment.

    So I presume it would be similar to the other cdti kits that are going around just way cheaper right? Do you know anybody that has one fitted?

    I just found this whilst having a browse on VXRonline...

    Roose Motorsport CDTi airbox conversion kit...

    Would this have the 80mm outlet or 70mm? Doesn't give much info on the page (and hopefully somebody on here is familiar with them or psychic he he Click here to enlarge)
