I know this has probably been asked before but i cant find a good answer in the search.
So as i'm new here and to astra turbo's any help on whats better for a coupe turbo would be good.
Cheers
I would also be instrested on this subject.
I take it Induction kits such as, BMC, Viper, etc are not even worth considering?

these do more harm than good
the dbilas is expensive for the gain you get go for a 1.9 it is a neater fit with the afm and pipe work and regal fit them on high bhp cars

I have just gone 1.9 TDi too.

That does look nice and tidy. Where did you get your silicone hose's from for it?
And your boost pipe?

regal i would say :)
They are just 2 silicon hoses from www.raldes.co.uk
I used a 90 degree and a 45 degree but would have been better to use 2 90 degree ones.
And yes its a Regal boost pipe

70mm Bore 45° Elbow BUT get a 70mm Bore 90° Elbow as it will fit beter
