DTUK Box - 1.6T
just wondering if anyone has the same car as me or the 180 version boxed and what kinda gains were you getting?

Im going to buy a box if I can as theres no mention of the 1.6T 200 on the site so have sent a message to see if the 180 is the same, I'm just wondering would i ten be close to the 240bhp range? And if so would this put any strain to any parts on my car? 

Also what bout a pedal box, anyone got one and think they are worth it?


Cheers

GTC 1.6t Induction kit
Evening guys, So ive been looking around for a while for an induction kit for the gtc and the only one that I have came across has been K&N typhoon filter which comes with a hefty £250 plus pricetag and even at that I have only found one for the 1.4T and to be honest its robbery for a cone filter and a pipe. If youve had a browse through my progress thread youll see ive been looking into building one from scratch and managed to get the car running good on idle. I'm curious to know if anyone else

Induction Kit for GTC 1.6T
Hi this is my first post on here,

So i've had my GTC for just over a month now and looking at some light modifications that won't destroy my warranty entirely..

I've searched the net far and wide for a prebuilt induction kit for the 1.6 and not had any luck, although K and N do one for the 1.4 it is fairly extortionate pricing for what it is.

I've noticed another old thread further down with people in the same scenario, although I am a little concerned about the induction pipe that is c

Pipercross VS K&N panel filter (Astra GTC 1.6T)
Hey guys!

Recently picked up a 2013 GTC (1.6 Turbo 180ps) and I am currently looking into smaller tuning options, at least for now anyways.

After looking at cone filters, I've pretty much ruled them out due to the limited amount of kits out there, the price of the kits available, the effort of making one myself and heatsoak issues.

So back to the question, as far as I know the Pipercross is about £15 cheaper and is a dry filter, vs the K&N which I believe is oiled.


So all I really
