Jamee u r right matt, i had rarb on the coupe and the difference was amazing, but i like my cars lower as dont like gaps between arches lol What sites are the best to buy from these days for springs rarb etc... Daz - is removing the pre cat simalar to how we did it on the coupe, and does it make a difference?
Matt Springs and RARB would still be Courtenays. DAP are the dogs for the MK5 springs, and you can match them up with a set of VXR shocks for a very good set up.

Jamee was thinking of konis 35mm matched with vxr shocks, or if i can save some coilovers. With this one, id like to concentrate on power 1st for a change, so precat, exhaust, bigger turbo, lightened flywheel, new remap, basically stage 2 courtneys.
Jamee so can someone explain about changing the power pipe across the top of the engine, does it make a difference?...as this car got some polished pipe on the side, but normal flat pipe on top.
Daz flywheel will mean ditching the dual mass, so a new clutch will be in order aswell.... dap springs are the ones to get jam...
Daz just the word on the street jam,, dap's are the best choice..... hence why courtnay(only seller) sell out as quick as they get them in
Matt Polished pipe will just be for looks mate. The flat cross over would be replaced with the CDTI/2.2 air box conversion.
Jamee right, so do i need the polished pipe then???? just looking on ebay, does the vectra 1.9 box fit as the astra ones are bloody expensive..
Matt No, only the Astra will fit. The Vectra is totally different fitment. TBH, they aren't really worth it for under stage 3, as the cross over can flow enough for the power. For what they cost, they aren't really worth it.
