My mate has a 1.8 Coupe, it seems to do pretty well. Can't quite keep up with the Corsa though
He says that he's looked on the Astra clubs and whenever someone on there with a 1.8 asks about tuning they're always told to sell it and get a turbo.
This post may or may not be any help at all

I've never driven a 2.0 or 2.2 Astra G so I can't comment on their handling but this 1.8 I got is like on rails, so yeah small block ftw
