Newbie saying Hi!

[shanky77]

Hi all,

I'm Shane. Been the very proud owner of my Astra VXR for about 2 months now and what more can I say than WOW! Coming from a Honda background (CTR with 200whp and ITR DC2) I now appreciate the benefit of torque!!! Just miss the awesome handling and feedback from the DC2 and the LSD!

Will be looking into stage 1 over the next few months once I've got used to the car a bit more!

Gonna have a bit more of a search to get more at home on what looks to be a really good forum!

Thanks for the warm welcome and yeah its nice having power on tap without having to wait until 6k before anything happens! Took some getting used to though as the Teg revvvvveeeeeedddd to 9k, spent the first week or so bouncing off the limiter! Its also nice not feeling like you're wringing every last bit of power/torque out of the engine to get it to perform!!!
