Thanks, I'll get some pictures up soon hopefully! This is very useful info, I'll have to look into this then. Do you have any experience with changing side to front mount inter cooler, I'm keen to do this for the performance and aesthetics.
I typically log block 01 (rpm, IQ, pump voltage, coolant temp), block 04 (rpm, requested injection timing, actual injection timing, n75 duty cycle) and block 010 (MAF, ambient air pressure, MAP pressure, engine load).
To do a log enter the measuring blocks module in engine, select the blocks you want to log and then click the log button at the bottom. By default it saves it in C-Ross Tech-Logs. If you want to email me some logs I could graph some values if you like and in future you could just copy and paste in new values and it'd update the graphs automatically
Well the smic hasn't been removed from my old asv more or less fully stripped engine bay now though. A friend fitted it for me before going to attempt it my self since this past week I have done lots I thought I would never be able to do . Pretty confident I'll be able to do it I'll take pictures and let you know how I get on.
And Lee I paid £400 sterling for it lad wanted a lot more but the car wasn't working correctly and the suspension was ropey to say the least, was pretty much a lemon until it received some much needed TLC.
Hosed out all the head today and flushed coolant system completely, full of rust clearly not been looked after. Replaced thermostat guessing from the rusty water I suspected it wouldn't be in the best condition best to change it for the price.
And the power is unbelievable Mate not sure what it's running at the minute but I'm pretty sure it's over the 110 mark I'm going to fit the smic, air filter, .216 injector nozzles then take it for a dyno and maybe a remap if necessary I'll let you know what it's putting out. Won't be for a couple of weeks now still using my golf PD at the minute to get about (hate it ) lol couple of weeks I'll put her on road permanently .
The mods so far are full Ss cobra exhaust with back box and decat from turbo, whistles beautifully and I haven't deleted the egr yet .
All in all I'm really happy got a bargain as I had my dead car and a dying car now I have a Phoenix haha and cost is minimal as most the work I am doing my self .
Not sure if this is allowed but I am breaking this car and anything I don't need I would happily donate to someone in need
Yes! 110s everywhere, glad I'm not the only one.
I bought my '03 110 SE on 72000 now about 95000 and loving it.
No mods as yet but I'm collecting bits, so far I've only got:
Cupra R front+ rear bumpers - with inserts etc
Guides/brackets for fitting
But I plan to fit a front mount at the same time as the bumper swap. I have been thinking about EGR delete but I'm still not 100% sure about it, any advice greatly received .
I see! Excellent explanation d.mccarth16 as I have been struggling for info on the subject. I'll flush it out then, I had noticed the oily pipes and inter cooler 'dripping'. I'll have to have a look for a catch can guide then.
Well as I plan to fit the LCR bumpers I've bought I might aswell do an exhaust upgrade too. Am I right in thinking a straight through won't be horrifically noisy and fail an MOT?
Ah okay then, I'll have to find a straight through! I've seen some on the dreaded eBay but I'd question the quality!
I'm surprised to hear of the lack of 'car love' over there!! It's bad news, it does mean we get good cars here though
I said I wouldn't go for a FMIC unless running high boost, a stage 2 tune would be high boost so I'd definitely recommend it for that! For what they are the intercoolers work very well, same with the standard air intake which is good up to 200 bhp if I remember correctly. It's great that there are so many VE Seats on here and nice clean examples too! Here in Ireland their aren't that many and most of them are wrecked! I spent about 3 months looking for the right Toledo and in the end had to travel 3 hours to Northern Ireland to buy it and it's originally an English car! The paintwork on English cars is always so well kept! It's such a shame that people don't have the same attitude to looking after their cars here.
@Lee
Thanks aha, I'll get some more soon for when I do the bumper swap. It needs a darn good clean though.
I was pretty lucky as I got both for £75!!! It's not an oem set, but I'm totally cool with that as it was so cheap. There are sets on eBay from Poland which look like the same ones
I have two questions though:
1)Oil catch can - 15mm inlet/outlet holes will be fine won't they?
2)My key fob no longer remotely unlocks the car. If I manually unlock then hit lock button windows come down all round, so I guess it's still connected? Really baffled by it.
Maybe rubbish map but a few people also mention that it could also likely be the internals of the car too that have restricted it from anything higher?
Yes, the clutch kit comes with a flat flywheel.
.216 nozzles on a stock engine see 120bhp but up to 155bhp when mapped. Stock clutch won't handle that. Bigger turbo needed to go higher.
Mailed the guys at REVO and they said their stage 1 map starts at 125bhp & 203lb/ft so shouldn't be concerned. Also said all these mappers quoting 145bhp are talking rubbish
