i have a mk4 astra 1.6 8v
Would i benifit from a air box de-ristriction,i have a k&n panel filter?
Is there any way to give it a bit more power low end,as it is slow at pulling off? cheers steve

...in the nicest possible way.

It's a 1.6 8V Astra - no matter what you do to it, with the possible exception of strapping a rocket to it it going to have any NOTICABLE effect...except maybe as a placebo / make it sound noisier.

You COULD spend silly money and do all sorts of expensive proper mods to gain some power - but k&n filters, panels or cones won't do much.

i could sell you my ride on mower,it's got a lot more tuneing potential
pretty weak engine you could go for an engine swap or save your penny's and get a faster car
