Hi all,

Just curious as to what performance mods were available for the 1.6t. I don't here about this engine much and modifications are even rarer.

I'm currently planning what I want done so I can start putting together an order of things to do and so far my list is:

1) Exhaust (still to decide cat back/ full system etc)
2) Intake
3) FMIC
4) Stage 2 Remap

but I was wondering if there's anything extra I can do to get a bit more out of her. Any body know of anyone fitting bigger tur

Hi,

Quick question - Should a 2013 Astra GTC 1.6t petrol have a plastic under tray? I was filling the screen wash in my car and suddenly realised I could see the ground beneath my engine.

I can't remember my last car not to have one.

Hi all,
Just bought a 2013 GTC 1.6T but the Drivers Information Centre isn't as detailed as the 1.4T I test drove previously. Are the additional features only available on the 1.4 or can they be activated on the 1.6 also.

Thanks in advance

Hope your all well and keeping busy with your Astra's, I know I am.

I'm here looking for info on the crankcase ventilation of my GTC. I have serious a vacuum in my crankcase/head causing bad whining or squealing when the car is warm.
Its definitely the vacuum causing the squealing as when I remove the dipstick or oil cap it stops dead.
I'm thinking a PCV valve is causing this but im unsure on how the system works on these cars.

Hey Forum,

I've been into modding for most of my life but more the old school way of NA (expensive way of going slow) and also turbo'ing cars that weren't turbo from factory.  More recently I've been playing around with more modern cars where software and bolton's make great gains.

After reading up on the 1.6T is seems it isn't the strongest of motor & gearbox combo's but should handle stg1 sw with relative ease.  I'm not that familiar with the UK market so have done allot of googling.  I'
