looking great mate , keep us posted of bhp fiqures, i've spoke to kev at revo (great advice as usual) , the apx code engine in mine is built like the early golf 1.8t aum/agu (can't member which one he said now ;() so can can put eliminator kit on and mapped to around 320-330bhp with no issues

Lovin the Ibiza mate looks awesome. Tell me, why the heat wrap on the downpipe before the flex? Does it give any benefit?
Just being nosey mate I have the same DP and Decat.

It's heat wrapped pretty much all the way if it's wrapped it keeps the heat in an lets the gasses out faster.i had Spare heat wrap an thought I may as well use it. Little bit of noise difference to

I'll be getting some stopping power when I find a set of good brakes.
Spoke to alex at forge an we sorting out a day on a RR were the forge cars get done I know the dyno will be good an not make **** number like I no most places do.

the fun began this weekend when i went to work in my car an my exhaust was blowing like a back street hooker!! car home an up on a jack to find out were not exhaust joins... was the MANIFOLDan pulled of from the weight of the turbo an then damaged the manifold cousing it to crack an also shake my bolts out holding my pipe to my turbo on!!


i had my manifold from THS as i used my ATP manifold when i fitted my turbo so i had to swap it all over, bracket my turbo to my engine an stop bolts undoing this is how it went!!
