Introduction
Here is my GP Sporting 1.9 m-jet. Bought it last month last month to replace my Astra SRi 2.2. Miss her like mad but needed something less heavy on the wallet, but something with a bit of poke
I was initially amazed by the diesel engine (wheelspin in 3rd!) but now I'm used to it I'm wanting a bit more Mpg isnt as good as I imagined when driving sensibly, 40-42 average, but get a bit more (45ish) when doing longer runs. Maybe just needs a good service.
Had a few niggles so far but I'm working my way through them (slowly lol), and hoping to do a few mods...
So far I've added heko wind deflectors (although one flew off), footwell led's, new pollen filter, new discs and pads on the rears and currently got a cone induction kit on, as I had one in the garage thought I'd give it a try whilst its cold out. Must say I love the whine and tssshh noise but I think the best bet is a decent panel filter for overall performance?
Plans?
Got some pressed plates to go on and a set of fitted mats and mudguards in the post (the photo shows how badly theyre needed!)
Then hopefully:
Remap
Lower
Abarth headlights
Blank egr (or at least clean)
Cupra splitter
Debadged grill
Debadge 'punto' and remove the smiley face
And then clean lol.
Will update with some better pics once she's clean.
