mate give regal or courtney a call stage 2 will make it much faster!

 

[Alex888]

Ive got to do something I think. Aaron said to me I should get a induction kit and a cat by-pass....That should wipe the smile off his face.

Stage 2 sounds cool, how much do you think?

hi i was very into vauxhall tuning last year somtime and i was looking at some of the prices was very £££! i know most car tuning is alot of money but it was alot for bits. also try PVD NET they are good just vauxhall,

i know this is not vauxhall but in my 172 cup i wiped the smile of a guy in his 200SX! was funny when i took him (on a private road!lol)

Try MIG m8, i used to use it when i had a GTE.

Ahh just seen this post.

Yeah it was good fun indeed. As i said Alex, an ecu remap should do the trick, and also a new turbo.

 

[Alex888]

Yes a new turbo is needed. I went to a friends garage today and he informed me that my turbo in knackered. This will be the second time this has happened in 6 months. Ive got white smoke coming out the back every now and then. Can I add that this white smoke had been puffin out before I raced aaron thus meaning my 888 wasnt driving to its full potential on sunday

But if your up for another blast this weekend aaron let me know, I will bring the digy camera out.

 

[aaronc]

When you getting it done? I bet Frosts are happy!

So thats maybe why there was such a big difference, get the turbo done and ill up for another blast this weekend!

 

[Alex888]

Frosts are doing it tomorrow morning. Ive been in there so many times they knew who I was when I said "Hi ive got a 888 and I believe that the turbo has gone again" "Ahhh is that Mr Osborne, bring it in tomorrow".

Yep, well up for a blast. Hopefully it will be a bit closer this time maybe even beat you. HA HA HA!

p.s. can you sort out flash for us please mate

 

[aaronc]

lol bet they know you buy now. Should be much closer this time round with the new turbo on.

Get a panel filter for now, then research the ECU remap option as it will defo be benficial especially for the cost compared to my clio!

Ill have a look for Flash this week.

 

[Alex888]

Cool, cool. I will see you at the works sometime.

Happy days

[Mondial172]

Is it now basically the same engine as the new VXRs?

Cant you up it to silly power with it being a turbo charged engine? Like the 1.8t vag engine - 150bhp > 200bhp with a remap

If not new Vauxhalls are a waste of space!

 

[Jay@auto-mods]

if you need turbo upgrades just let me know as i get very good prices on them! just PM me it will be much much cheaoer an better than other vauxhall tuning...
