I have a 2 Dr 2008 astra xr and I want to give it some guts. I'm looking for recommendations on motors that fit nicely and up the power with an NA motor.

Honestly the Astra is heavier than an HHR so you'd have to give it a healthy power boost to make it worthwhile

Keep it the way it is. A simple solution would be to just install a speedometer that reads faster than you are actually going.
