Picked my car up from Star earlier this evening and my car is AWESOME, really pleased with the results! :D
This is Jim's own software and is a totally custom map to my car(mk3 Ibiza Cupra)!
It made 230 bhp @ 5480rpm flywheel
185 bhp @wheels
44.0 bhp drag
Torque was 221 lbf-ft @ 5380rpm
Boost is 1.1Bar across the rev range
The car feels awesome and pulls all the way.
Must say a big thank you to jim for putting in a lot of time and effort in getting my car just right.
Another happy customer!! :D

i had an APR chip before which i liked but it died at 4500rpm but this baby doesn't come on as strong to start with as the APR to prevent wheel spin but it's really strong at the top!
It's a nice smooth progressive map jim's given me and i'm really impressed. :worship:
The car goes like hell totally smoked a BMW 330ci last night which was fun!!!
i've done 120 miles to a tank of optimax since sunday, good fun!! :thumbup:
But the heavy right foot will have to give way to the light wallet for now tho!! :D
But having the extra power has reminded me that i need new brakes before there is a cupra sized hole in a hedge somewhere!!!
Watch out for neil's k03s slaying Clio cup. He will smoke ya. LOL.
haha, yeah and im the pope.
its his mates "nearly stock VTS" youve got to watch!
yeah baz im getting the brembos BEFORE jabba, that way i know im sorted!

yeah, its 512 inc postage mate! still a great price for a set of brembos!

How much were you charged for the K03S conversion and remap?
I'm booked in next weekend for the APR remap.

Simon i may be down if the weather is good, inbox cleared! ;)
My boost spikes at 16-17psi and holds there until 5600ish rpm very smooth.
I've got a print out i just need a scanner, will try and get it posted up later!!
The heavy foot i was talking about earlier in the thread has earned me a reckless driving and speeding charge!!!! had a little race with BradcupraT and got caught!! :censored: :censored: :mad: :mad: :banghead: :banghead: :cop: :cop: :sick:

Brads got my APR'd ecu, N75J, cat back exhaust,dynatwist, RSD T.I.P.
He wasn't to far behind but i once i got over 4krpm i started to pull away!

it's just really bad timing as my wee bro is being done for dangerous driving for racing!!! got caught last weekend!!!
so meal times in our house will be great fun!! with the old boy giving it the "you stupid ba5tards"!!!
Lol!
did brad get pulled aswell then?
how fast did they clock you?
Excuse my ignorance but what are...
N75J and RSD T.I.P?
cuprabaz
14-10-2004, 13:37
Brad got pulled aswell but he's already on 6 points!!
They've got no record of the speed other than there eyes and my statement saying i believe i may have been over the limit! Didn't think at the time!!
N75J is an uprated actuator bypass regulator valve, gives you a slightly higher boost spike and holds the boost slightly longer.
T.I.P. Turbo Intake Pipe, RSD are the company i purchased it from(top people)
Ahh, how much longer does it hold boost with that?
cuprabaz
14-10-2004, 15:08
not sure never really noticed how long it held for, but it definitly spiked higher, with the apr 1 bar program i was spiking 1.35bar and holding 1.2bar with the j on, with the j it spiked at 1bar and stayed there.
How much did it cost? where from?

Here's my plot from Star Performance. ;)
cuprabaz
15-10-2004, 13:58
just looked at the plot and the quality is pretty shit, but it looked fine before, any tips on how i can sharpen it up a bit!
not sure. can read it though. thanks for posting it.
was the power run done in 4th gear, or 3rd do you know? or werent you there at the time?
Looks good anyway, cant wait to get mine done now.
Mark
Forth gear with mine and his.
You can tell it states peak power at 114mph or something. You dont get 114 with 3rd gear.
actually, you wouldnt be far off 114mph on the redline in 3rd in a mk3 cupra. prob about 110ish!
Mark
but yeah, your right in what you say:)

I think you'd be in the high nineties.... you've got shorter gearing than on my car, and I have a higher rev limit (just) and that' 97 for me.
I think you'd be in the high nineties.... you've got shorter gearing than on my car, and I have a higher rev limit (just) and that' 97 for me.
It depends on so many factors. At 5900 rpm it would be extremely unlikely that it is 3rd. But if Mk4Polo has an overzealous speedo 10% out etc, he could easily read 110mph at 6000 odd rpm etc.
Tire size, speedo accuracy, gear ratios etc. Can affect what speed you are and think you are doing in all your gears.
The rollers will state an accurate 114mph but the speedo could have been reading 124mph for example.
I can get an 'indicated' speed of well over 100mph in 3rd without hitting the rev limiter on my mk3 Ibiza. Not sure what the real speed would be though.
Cheers
Ben
My rev limit is 7200rpm so i am sure i can go 110+ in 3rd if pushed to the redline.

Thats a lot of power to loose through transmission isn't it?
Power seems good, maybe ask for a bigger peak to up that mid range torque... i reckon 250 lb/ft on 1.35 bar. I'm getting my Golf 1.8t AGU with ko3's mapped up soon so its good to see someones opinion that hasn't used jabba!
Nice to know it pulls harder!
EDIT: Also just noticed that your peak torque is at 5300k :-o thats gotta be some smoooooooth boost delivery to peak so high bet it drives very nice!

it feels strong to start with and it just keeps getting stronger! :D
so how is life with more power mate?
had any run ins with any quick cars?
Mark:)
Why is peak torque so high up the rev range? , especially with a K03s?
I guess the lower the boost you use the higher up the rev range you can have your peak torque. I made 254lbs ft at 4450rpm but that was at 1.5 bar 21 psi.
madmile, how much quicker is the ko3s'd ibiza than say, a CTR (driven well) and how dows it do against something like a boxter, or BMW z4?

Mark
Personally I beat the regular boxters really easy, the boxter S I just have the edge, CTR its easy to get away due to the huge torque
Also had a Blast with a m Reg Porsche 911 Carrera, Either he was a Sh1t driver or his car wasnt that quick mid range
K03s from a 30mph rolling start will pull a gap of about 15 car lengths on a Jabba'd ko3 Ibiza over a 1 mile straight. Its quite a big gap, a ko3s will beat a 3.0l z4 because i have already done one. I have beaten a boxster s and so has custardcupra. K03s is very similar to an Evo6 through the gears, or a P1 scoob. It will beat a wrx with PPP (toonman) and it will beat a M3 new one to 120mph by a car length, but after 120mph the Bmw starts to pull away, by 150mph it was about 5 cars ahead of me. Ordinary Boxsters are easy, K03s is slighlty quicker than a Revo'd Lcr. Ctr's and Cups are left very badly about the same as a chipped Ibiza. I also beat a 2wd stage1 saph cossie 280bhp Ish. He went on the Rs owners saying i had 270bhp, but i was running stnd dp, stnd cat and intercooler at the time so it was 233bhp 244lbs ft 18psi. I told him it was only 233bhp but he said the 270 figure so his car did not look so bad.
http://bbs.rsownersclub.co.uk/showthread.php?s=&threadid=59859&highlight=jabbasport
Myself and Custardcupra have had quite a few run ins with the Scooby boys, and have chatted with them on scoobynet. You will also see off RS focus boys. Custardcupra drove stealthboys jabba'd Ibiza recently and said it was very slow and had no top end like his car. I have loads of vid fottage of diff encounters but i only have 56k and downloads and upload times are silly. I think i still have the k03s vs k03 vid and like i said its very diff in terms of speed. Ctr's and cups will not bother you with k03s. Forget what Neil was saying, if i use 4th to go from 80-110mph it only takes 7 secs, if i use 3rd its 9 secs. No lighly modded vts, cup, ctr, pug 180gti is going to get close.
I'll let u know how much faster IHI stage3 is than k03s in the next few weeks, cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

Lol, the IHI will be silly quick over the KO3s, i would imagine its a car you could never get bored of driving!

I'm not sure all i know is that Jim gave me a safe progressive map, 1.1Bar as i've still got the smic! He did say when i get the FMIC he could play with it again! but using the smic things would get very hot very quickly and have a fairly negative effect. I'm really happy with it, i've only had a couple races(all wins) chipped ibiza,330CI BMW and the best one was a 300 bhp WRX, he wanted to race off the lights but i managed to convince him a rolling start would be fairer!! beat him to 70mph by a car length!! :thumbup:
He was not a happy bunny and tried to use every excuse under the sun so we raced again and again=same result!! :roflmao:
Not many people want to race anymore since they got wiped before when i was just chipped!! great fun!! :thumbup:

cuprabaz: when u get better cooling it will make a big Difference as u can run much higher boost.
My new toy seems to be progressing a little (K04-23q) by mixing alod of parts as cheaply as poss, So hopefully it will pan out to a viable upgrade. Injectors/pump and lines are on their way also.
On another note anyone interested in a new S3 pump???
I dont know what to do for remap, Jabba or Star as Star seem to be a good up and coming tuner

Shock_Xe
26-10-2004, 11:58
for me, it may be a conflict of interest for them if The K04-23 works out as it could potentially be similar power to their stage 1 kit at half the cost, However it is totally different charecteristics and I have sent them alot of business through k03s turbos which they know of too!!!
if you think about it youve actually given star & jabba alot of business (mapping)
you should ask for discount!

i'm still really enjoying the car and progressive map i've got although later this year i will be getting the A&M FMIC and another remap to increase boost etc and hopefully see around 250bhp & 250-260 lbf-ft mark. :thumbup:

Stealth have been doing a 1.8T recently an dits not as easy as I imagined.. (ibiza base car and all that, but it is different and more awkward)
You would need to speak with JBS on price if you were thinking them to do this.
Sell the Polo Gti and buy an Ibiza Cupra.. easier and cheaper guaranteed.

Bill, Didgy has the GRS modified Single pass we origninally had Graham to do.
Didgy, The Large 17core is a limited production only due to partly special request by Bill and for ourselves (as the alu originally started, damn u Bill putting ideas in our heads :p ) The reason it remanis limited is cause the bumper requires further trimming and u have to 'Dress' the Slam Panel (OK u have to hack it but Dress sounds nicer) plus u have to remove the supports and make something up to replace as Bill did in his thread. Due to the work we are not inytending to release it and the 10core is more than ample for most applications as the 17core is overkill for most people
Didgy if u need a core, shouldnt be a problem, drop me a mail with info and we can discuss, p.s. who's conner?

Larger core is a significant improvement over the 10 core, and by more than the extra cores alone. Airflow and distribution thru the core looks to be flowing very well. It was worth insisting on a bigger core with better end tank designs & diffuser. It works very well.
As said, its a bit hardcore and not for the faint hearted as trimming is req'd to make it fit. but make it fit I did. and it was worth it.
my opinion and own tests is the regular AM FMIC is spot on size wise for K0x type turbos and rechips, but big turbo installs will want more cooling, which could be supplemented by water injection like i run, but is not req'd with the new core.
my logs show induction temps to not exceed 30'C on the dyno on 25psi IHI boost, where previously it could see >45'C on the old core. Interestingly aquamist added nothing on latest runs, as I believe there was no additional cooling benefit to be had.

ahh, Cool, Glad to see its working well, (especially considering u run higher boost than normal IHI) Aquamist may still come in useful in summer track use tho???
Like you said 10core is ideal for K0x equipped vehicles, May consider as u recomend slightly larger end tanks of the 10 core to help with dwell etc....
All good. MAy consider large core production upon request as long as people know the hassle it takes to fit it. (which im sure u could educate people on)

Baz what times you been running at Crail then?

best so far @ crail was 14.67 sec, 99.8mph, 60ft 2.579sec, 0.511 sec RT, that was in feb.
I got a 14.660 sec @ 94mph at edzel last year with the old turbo but my 60ft times were much better there. I think i was over cooking the starts at crail!! oops.
good fun though. :D
you need downpipe,cat and fmic i think :p :p :)

Do you get a commission from AM????? You cheeky bas!
Defo getting the FMIC in summer, maybe get AM's downpipe and cat instead of the miltek and also the CAI.
The snowboarding in france is going to put a dent in the parts £££ pot.
Just ordered a dieselgeek Ultra quick shift kit aswell.
lol no,i wish i did though.
i know of 4 ko3s sales (whole kit) theyve made from the fact people saw my car in action since it was done!! shocking...
anyway, on a serious not, there is no reason you cant do sub 14s, can only think its cooling and downpipe.
got a link to the quickshift? does downpipe need to be removed to fit it?!

I think it's the low torque that may be the problem and my bad habit of trying to strip the tyres of rubber at the start lol, aswell as the temps!! finacial blackhole!!
Here's a link: http://www.dieselgeek.com/A4NB_SS.php
My shopping list for this year is getting bigger every time i come on here :help:
Evogasket
LSD
Clutch
Flywheel
Another Downpipe and Cat
FMIC
AM CAI
Slicks
Bill and mike have a lot to answer for! lol :roflmao:
Lol thats some serious money!
im going to go for evosheild, cheap mod and seeem to be worth it. Ill do the clucth when it goes, or is going, i cant see it lasting forever to be honest.
i dunno about your 1/4 mile time, i think its top end....
post your 1/4 time of your best run, im sure i looked at yours, and the 60ft times were the same, well almost, so its further up th e revs, say top of 2nd and 3rd gear you could be loosing out. at a guess i would say that is due to cooling mainly, heat from turbo vs heat from my turbo must be quite high i rekon. Also, the flowingness (is that a word!?) of the dp and cat. Madmile and custard cupra couldnt belive the differnce the am dp and cat made, said it was amazing (when they did e05, not ihi)
my time; 13.81
60ft - 2.255
330ft - 5.971
1/8ET - 9.024
1/8MPH - 81.23
1000'ET - 11.539
1/4ET - 13.819
1/4MPH - 101.81

right here's my numbers.
Best with KO3 @ Edzel
1/4 mile - 14.660sec
60ft - 2.309sec
TV - 94.7mph
Best with KO3S @Crail
1/4 mile - 14.674sec
60ft - 2.579sec
TV - 99.8 mph
Looks like you were better off the line at Edzell, but slower once moving. The opposite at Crail.

Think that's just the poor track at crail. but the extra mph due to the turbo.
Hoping for a good set of numbers!!
Going by those numbers i'm predicting you run a 14.2
low 14s sould be achievalbe with 230bhp (ko3s) - 2 people i went to santapod with this weekend proved that

Just fitted the Dieselgeek Ultra short shift kit to my car, feels great much shorter, firmer and more precise than standard.
worth while i'd say!! :D
did you have to remove the downpipe and fit it from underneath?
cuprabaz
30-03-2005, 19:07
Nope i removed the dynatwist so i could get to the linkages and that was it. 1.5hrs tops!
Did you not check the link i gave you a few weeks ago :rolleyes: :bleh:
http://www.dieselgeek.com/A4NB_SS.php that's the baby.
cheers, good stuff.
the only thing that has been holding me back it the thought of dropping downpipe off like you usally have to do!!
thanks!

Yes mark. If you have any questions the guy Jim is very helpful.
I printed off all the Instructions along with all the pics think it was 40 pages?(courtesy of my work) so if you like i'll send a copy down to you if you get one.
yep definatly wouldnt mind getting one. 2 of my mates have fitted them to various crap cars in the past and the difference was impressive!
