Thanx guys!!
At the moment I'm running 0.7 Bar which is not much for this motor. Will be upping the boost to over a Bar on the new turbo setup.
I'm shooting more for reliability then out right power. While the engine is out I want to change the gearbox as well, cause it's running 175Km/h @ revlimiter. It is still the standard box which I think is a F17. Do any of you guys know what gearbox options I have, I do not know opel gearbox's very well? I've heard the 1.7 diesel gearbox will fit with minor mods. A guy told me a diesel and petrol has the same 1,2,3 gear except for gear No. 4 and 5 which is longer.

I don't know whether it's an easy fit, but the F23 found in the Coupe is a sweet box. Nice long gears, which is a lot of fun with a turbo.

Bit the bullet and got me a 1.7tdi gearbox. Got it for a steal so it's worth a shot.
