Pro,
Cheap ish to get.
Changing the ecu to the red box (iirc) to get 185ish brake.
Con,
Only 185brake with remap ecu (lets start at over 200)
Finding a full pressure turbo is getting harder. (most are light pressure so worth less)
After seeing a mk3 astra at PV at the weekend we reckon it wont physically fit due to the size of the exhaust manifold and turbo and how far out it sticks, ade might get one in the puntova but thats about it lol
