Totally? Gosh, I would hate to think really..

I have been very lucky and have always had some special prices from dealers / shops etc..

But never really worked out..

Interior was reasonable compared to other quotes and the work is outstanding...

Also the quality of the leather hide is unmatched!! Grade A german leather... not ya cheap £500 retrim from imported singapore hides...

Proper alcantara too

Oh and think im nearlyish done now!

I WILL YES I WILL

finish the stereo somtime this year and towards the end of the year start doing a few bits to the engine,

After speaking to regal and courtny at the show they both advised me against the Dbilas turbo kit...

I think I am just going to go for

Dbilas Inlet system
Dbilas cams
Dbilas remap
Dbilas air instake
Lexmaul Exhuast manifold
Bastuck centre section

That should see me to around 170-175bhp I should think... That will be plenty for the car without pushing the engine to hard...

I would be worried with the turbo kit on reliability

PainZ,

I was thinking about getting the Dbilas upgrade for my Corsa 1.8. Its about £2,000 for the full upgrade isn't it ?

What sort of performance increases do you think you would see ?

Thanks,

What sort of effect would it have on torque, would you see much of an increase ?

How do you think it would affect 0 - 60 times etc ?

Sorry for all the questions.

Love your car BTW.

Ok mate!

Dont think I could sell yet mind... I spent alot on it recently LOL

My friends dad has an arden blue GSi which he is going to be selling soon.. I could be tempted into that... Not sure..

Insurance would be quie a bit mind i expect..

Think i may wait until sept time, test an astra VXR and if i wanan change buy one of them!

Cool, i don't blame u really LOL

Alot of ppl seem to be selling them as an upgrade to the VXR, Is a top car but depreciation is too much for me to spend £19k on one.

Anyway when is the install going in mate?
