Irmscher Opel Astra GTC Revealed

Irmscher Opel Astra GTC

The German tuners from Irmscher have decided to take the cool Opel Astra GTC and make it a little bit better. Under the hood, they took the turbocharged 1.6-liter engine and played with it for a little while and now it produces 217 hp (220 PS / 162 kW) while the peak torque has been raised to 202 lb.-ft (274 Nm). As a reminder, the standard engine generates 177 hp (180 PS / 132 kW) so you get a boost of 40 hp which isn’t half bad.

As you can see, they’ve also come up with a more aggressive body kit, installing a new front grill, a roof spoiler as well as a rear diffuser that incorporates an elliptical quad exhaust. In addition, they’ll also lower your car by 30mm by installing a suspension kit and can install 21-inch alloys that have 245-sized tires.

For the inside cabin, Irmscher adds aluminum pedals and lots of fine leather to make the cruising more comfortable.
