hi guys i'v just got my o3 pd tdi 130bhp ibiza last week and iv just had the revo remap done and it kicks ass but what else can i get done as the guys who did the remap said i shouldn't get an air induction kit as it cause's to many problems with the air reader is this true and can anyone help me on what safe mods i can do cheers???

hi mate get a pd160 intake and a green cotton filter i have been running that setup since i got my car and have never had a problem also i would say get a miltek exhaust sounds nice and helps engine breath a bit better, other than that next mod is big turbo!! well worth it mate!!

 

[Evzyboy]

If you dont mind me asking how much was the revo remap? What figures are you pushing out now? bhp? torque?

 

[Nath.]

watch your clutch now that you have more power and torque, they can start to slip and can be expensive to replace

 

[AndyHazza]

Air flow meters are one of the most common problems with any VAG engine, standard or mapped, standard filter or after market. I'd definately recommend at least doing a replacement panel filter to allow for a lot better air flow.

hi guys the revo cost me £468.53 inc vat and it's putting ot 168bhp and 280lb ft of tourqe thats what theguys who set it all up told me but when i get a chance to im gonna put it on the dyno and get the prober readings.

so asking the same question again what engine mods can i get for 130 tdi 2003 reg ibiza which wont **** my engine up? also do anyone know where i can get a real cupra r body kit and the wheels?

does anyone know where i can get a good miltek exhaust boughht and fitted close to norwich?

what kind of panel filter should i get?
sorry about all the questions but i would rather do this right then do it wrong and screw me car up

Get the PD160 air intake and a green cotton filter

JBS Auto design can sort you out with these. They are in the sponsors section I think.

this helps the turbo spool up faster and generally helps the car breath better

Hi mate, has the remap transformed the performance a lot?? What was your mpg before and after th remap??

 

[the bear1986]

how much is the filter mate?

yeah the performance is much better i can do 130 and it still stays just under the 3000rpm so the turbo keeps kicking in and the mpg has only changed a little bit but not much unless i thrash it and then yes the mpg is rubbish. have you had the remap done or thinking about it getting it done

When I got the filter and intake I think it was about £70 all in.

Dead easy to fit. just need a philips screwdriver.

10 mins job max. (including making a cuppa tea)

[the bear1986]

what's the intake as i'v found the filter it might sound dumb asking this qustion

 

[MTIbiza]

The PD160 intake is just the intake from a cupra. it is a bit wider thus allows more air through.

You could buy one from the dealership - it comes in 2 parts.

I don't have a pic of it unfortunately.

Its rubbish?? What sort of figures are you getting?? I should be getting a sport 130 tdi in a few months just seeing what mods are gonna be best!

 

[the bear1986]

well when i was thrashing the car on the dual carriage way and the mpg went down to 32.6mpg so it's not bad but wheni drove it normal i can get 49 - 51 mpg doing 65 - 70mph it just depends on how hard you drive mate.

what year is yours mate? and i don't have any mods thats the problem i'v been told not to get any as this is as good as it can get. i didn't believe them so thats why im asking for help on here.
