Chino's Ibiza FR 20VT - 7.5 years on...

[Chino_UK]

Well, this is my trusty steed for the next few days whilst doing some running around for work...will appreciate the Ibiza when I get back behind the wheel I think, I'm not a van driver normally and this thing is a shock to the system...

have to get your power graph up mate and then get the stage 2 mapped one up after

 

[Chino_UK]

I'm going to scan it shortly mate

Picked one of these up Saturda, on your recommendation

Should be in one day this week for a map

How much mate..

Nice smooth curve

 

[Chino_UK]

Was £30something off the top of my head.
Yeah, the car drives well, trouble is I've tasted a remapped one now...just been to the bank sorting money out. Might call in to Awesome for some Stage 2 hijinks tomorow.

 

[Damoegan]

Did you get the gasket from Awsome? As the web price on them is like £45....

 

[Chino_UK]

If you speak nicely to them they may do you a deal...

 

[Gooner_Mike]

Silly question: What does a power gasket do that a normal one doesn't?

Hmmm.... Runs off to the Awsome section

 

[Chino_UK]

It's an insulated version of the normal one...stops heat transferring form the block to the inlet manifold. So in theory it should lower intake temps.

Cool... cheers mate! Happy with your RR graph from the weekend? How are Stage 2 plans coming along?

 

[Chino_UK]

Yeah, pretty much the figures I was expecting. I'm hoping I'll get chance to take an extended lunch tomorrow then head to Awesome for it. Will get it RR'd again afterwards.

 

[Chino_UK]

Just nipped over to Awesome, car is now running an APR Stage 2 map....wow it pulls!

Any figures/videos?

 

[Chino_UK]

No RR as yet, was told best to do it about a week after when it settles down. I'm back at Awesome for new ARB bushes next week so will have it put on the rollers

 

[Damoegan]

They do pull realy well, dont they

What exhaust you running mate?
