Interesting Astra J on ebay.......... - andy2174 - 14:th-Oct-2016

Stumbled across this just now, 240bhp and over 400lbft ! I imagine it will break gearboxes pretty swiftly with all that torque

No mention of how it has the extra power and torque

About the cheapest bi-turbo I have ever seen too

Sounds very dodgy to me, too cheap and odd power,

As a private sale it will be cheaper than the dealers trade in for that is £8500 just type his reg into we buy any car etc but the bhp does seem over the top even if mapped but i am sure 220 is possible

220 is possible as that's what I am running in my Bi-Turbo,, was running 240 but it to much for the DPF it blocks up and you go into limp mode..(the seller may have had the DPF removed then 240 would be possible) But there are only a few company's which do the bi-turbo...

I think its the torque figure, 400lbft thats more shocking than the bhp, that torque is 50lbft over the gearbox rating
