Opel Astra GTC by Irmscher


German tuner Irmscher has announced a tuning kit for the Opel Astra GTC.

First up is the engine tuning, whereby Irmscher dials output up on the 1.6 liter turbocharged unit to 220 PS (162 kW / 217 bhp) and 274 Nm (202 lb-ft) of torque from the series 180 PS (132 kW / 177 bhp).

Next is the body kit which sees the tuner add its own grille to the GTC, as well a full aerodynamic kit including front spoiler with lip, roof spoiler and a rear diffuser housing the elliptical quad exhaust (fitted by Irmscher).

For the ride is a 30 mm suspension lowering and 21-inch wheels wrapped in 245-sized tires.

The inside gets a finish in fine leather and aluminum pedals.
