200bhp

[-cupra-cal-]

Could someone be kind enough to just make a little list of things to buy to make 200bhp safely from a cupra ?

thanks guys

stage 1 map will see you most of the way. then also a turbo back exhaust, fmic, turbo intake pipe and an air filter will see you 200 bhp

cheers gaz, you seemto be the only person that replies to my threads so I really appreciate it, should be getting the cupra friday now, goodbye golf hello Ibiza, I'll be starting a (slow) progress thread and pictures when I get the car so hopefully that should be interesting

 

[-cupra-cal-]

also, what brands would you use? samco for the turbo intake? not sure if I want to splash out so much for a forge FMIC unless I can pick one up a bit cheaper, what do you think gaz?

most people who dont have money go for the universal kit off ebay but you do have to either get stronger clips or bead the pipework to stop the hoses blowing off.
so many choices out there most of us use forge, some samco, some autobahn 88 all up to price and what you want to pay.

also get a forge 007p dump valve will help keep the boost up as standard dv's allow blow by after a while

mines running claimed 220bhp, revo stage 1, fmic, milltek cat back, carbonio cold air induction, 007p dv, n279 by pass. get a boost guage installed and youll know where your boosting now and then you should boost around 18psi when all mapped

thanks dude first things first I'll get the car put through a good service, the start looking at the mods, but I'd like to see the better side of 200 bhp by the end of the year, what sort of price is a REVO stage 1 map? i looked on the site but it didnt state prices..

thanks again

k03s and stage 2 will get you around 240bhp ish

 

[-cupra-cal-]

that would be cool, the ko3s is pretty exspensive so would be a project for next year I think, what was the price on the stage 1 remap?

 

[chris_200120vt]

revo stage 1 £350 till 8th may
custom code stage 1 £300 + vat

 

[-cupra-cal-]

okay thanks dude,

so the list so far looks like this...

Revo stage 1 remap £350
FMIC £225
Forge Turbo intake (if im looking at the right one) £120
007p DV £106
Miltek cat back exhaust...ideas on prices?

shaping up to be a good progress list

 

[andy1010]

have a look in the traders section on here im sure bager5 does the 007p for about £82 could be wrong

aldo have a look on ebay and pistonheads you might get some bargins off there

 

[-cupra-cal-]

Okay thanks andy, Friday can't actually come quick enough, as I said I'll post some pics and start a progress thread when I make a start on it

as you're in suffolk how about chatting to jabbasport
and ebay can be a friend and an enemy! to collect parts

Mine is running 201bhp with a turbo back exhaust, Forge turbo intake pipe, jetec air filter Forge FMIC (forge hose kit) and a revo stage 2.

Currently searching for a k03s turbo to match the power of my old cupra

 

[-cupra-cal-]

Just had a look on jabbasport might go with the stage 1 remap, milltek cat back, forge 007p, forge turbo intake, fmic, and induction kit

 

[cupra-gaz]

edition38 is also a good site to pick up some second hand bargins

 

[cupraajy]

Just had a look on jabbasport might go with the stage 1 remap, milltek cat back, forge 007p, forge turbo intake, fmic, and induction kit

Would really consider looking into getting a turbo back exhaust...the standard downpipe + CAT is very restrictive

 

[tom w]

I'm running thier custom ko3s map

 

[-cupra-cal-]

Okay dude thanks for that info, so with the stuff I listed that will run safely? Nothing else I need to looking into?

Alot of folk with 1.8T engines are running those mods safely, regular services and good maintance and it should be sweet. Reaching above the 240-250bhp mark you might want to "consider" internal work.
