Difference between 2006 Cupra and 2006 FR 1.9TDI

[mds1256]

Firstly, are the clutches the same in these 2 cars?

then, what are the differences between these cars mechanical wise e.g. uprated turbo ect or is it just ECU software tweak.

reason why i am asking is that when remap a fr they say dont remap too much because of clutch slip, am i was wondering if u remap the 130pd to cupra specs will the clucth handle it.

Only difference is turbo and intercooler and software on ecu, engine gearbox and clutch all the same.

Gearbox isn't the same

Is one 5, and the other 6 speed?

T

 

[Ibiza Evo 2]

Both 6-speed.
The FR has the same gear ratio's as the sport tdi130 but only the 4,5 & 6th gear are shorter.
The cupra D has other ratio's all the way

What is it that makes the difference power wise between remapping the diesel FR and Cupra. If you stuck an FMIC on is it just the turbo?
