beatiful, trying to convince my cousin to get a 4d,put a 6 gear setup from the chevy onix and mod it with the astra mk4 8v head (the 140hp one) and some cam + itbs, with a fueltech and ethanol id bet it would be around 215ish hp little screamer, cus iv seen some dudes down here bore a mk4 astra gsi to 2.4 16v with 204hp on the engine.

Fucking hell thats brilliant power for just over a bar of boost 😮

[@DKBSOB]

Thanks buddy! Yea really shows what a tight build, ported head and a set of cams can do to a turbo engine!

[@andybrooks7908]

@@DKBSOB yea 100% , definitely built well I've seen others making that sort of power but spiking 30+psi and having to hold 28 so good job

[@Rotterdam93]

Wowww spectacular Astra

[@Jockyboy91]

I’m buying a vxr next week to start the conversion on my mk3 Gsi. What gearbox is this running? Surely the F20 isn’t cutting it?

[@DKBSOB]

HI, thanks for the comment! I am running the f28 calibra turbo 6 speed box with quaife diff. You use a mk5 flywheel with a mk4 clutch to make this fit

[@Jockyboy91]

@@DKBSOB Aye, I did see that online. F28 box’s are few and far between these days I’ll need to keep my eyes peeled. I’ve just had mine resprayed and all exterior work complete, I was going to keep it mainly original but I’ve completely changed my mind. If it turns out anything like yours il be delighted 🚗💨🔥

[@prisk862]

that's awesome mate! How hard was the conversion?

[@DKBSOB]

Hi, thanks for the comment! Fitting the engine is dead easy, uses all the mk3 mount which fit onto the mk5 block! I'm running omex as when I did the conversion 10 years ago and it was the easist way
