good buy for anyone with a 2.0 engine, someone should snap it up. I highly recommend them a pedal box


Pedal box - Rusty2009 - 26:th-Dec-2014

I thought these were specifically set up for each car?


Pedal box - Rusty2009 - 26:th-Dec-2014

Not as far as I know.

A tuning box is but this just increases throttle response.

nope they fit all astra J and H engine types
and the size of the engine has no effect on the box
one box for all

no problem they fit all


Pedal box - pope30 - 14:th-Jan-2015

Thanks guys, he is letting me have it for £70, if it increses my insurance loads I will be selling it on after I have had a play with it!


Pedal box - tucpal - 14:th-Jan-2015

you will be fine mate there is no need to tell them you have it
it just plugs in and can be removed in seconds if needed
they also would not have a clue what it was and there is no way
to tell it has ever been fitted


Pedal box - Rusty2009 - 14:th-Jan-2015

As Tucpal has said they won't know it's on there, that is a good buy mate.


Pedal box - Lewis6317 - 14:th-Jan-2015

Yeah i have to say its a very good by. I cant wait to put mine back in, once i know my fuel is back to how it was. Then its going straight back in..

Thanks mate, £17 to put it on my insurance so I will add it on as I know that they will do anything to not pay out! Great spot on Ebay btw! Hopefully a leather interior will come up at some point!!


Pedal box - tucpal - 15:th-Jan-2015

Looks great but too much for me unfortunately.

Got my pedalbox today and I am pretty sure it has made no difference :( any tips?


Pedal box - Rusty2009 - 16:th-Jan-2015

What setting have you got it on I have mine on the sport stage 3

I have had a go with them all. I saw a video where someone installed one and he held is foot on 2000 RPM and as he went through the different settings the RPM changes without changing the throttle position.

Is that correct?


Pedal box - Rusty2009 - 16:th-Jan-2015

The book says not to change settings while using the accelerator or cruise control. TBH I didn't think it made a difference until I turned it off after a week then you notice it.

Does yours act like this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvkieB5V-Ek


Pedal box - Rusty2009 - 16:th-Jan-2015

I've never changed settings while using the accelerator so I wouldn't know mate.


Pedal box - tucpal - 16:th-Jan-2015

i have the old one that is only Manuel adjustable
but i find when you find the setting you like
you tend to just keep it there anyway

but yes that is how it works
sport plus two is the most favored

Ok, I will try it for a week as you suggested and then try it without.
