I warned you of this well before you sunk yourself young chap!!! Take heed Steven and Kyle!!!
As for the diff-i didnt see it in action but id say it is a fine piece of kit!! Understeer is terrible, but you can definately get a good bit of lift off oversteer on the oul Ibiza!!

Hi stoneyfordni can you please give the part number off the clutch plate if you kept it off the box cheers
thought id update this thread instead of starting a new one , despite saying id let my credit card recover after the remap , the extra power has shown 288mm stoppers are not up to task and also the rear wiper cant remove soot so ........
wat we have is galfer 312mm discs and 1055 pads courtesy of quattroman, a polo wiper courtesy of ebay and as a wee treat to myself a stealth key from the ebay as well, just waiting now on calipers and carriers coming from 247 spares ( 82 quid , steal of the century) and a new blade for the key , then it'll be time for my next trick------quiet kyle

hi stoney,,,
how do you put the original keyblade into the switchblade thing?
just an idea that will happen within a month ,
there is a small pin inside the key that holds the blade in , u punch the pin out , remove blade , and repeat the process , and local VW place said a good reputable locksmith can cut the blade , and then vagcom to recode the key/immobiliser
good to hear from u carlo

I understood the pin bit but I don't get when the locksmith cutting thing comes in,,,
I mean, you punch the pin out, remove the blade, punch then the blade into the switchblade thing, and you're done, not?
Can't wait to see this new trick myself - better not be one of my ideas
On a side note....started work on some under bonnet bling, added another roll of Dynamat to the boot (rattle now you fooker), finished my smooth fuel cap ready for paint, and wait for it...................Made new drawings for my final ever boot build-ready for completion at the end of June!!

Cant wait to see the gauges mate, should look really good!
I also had the pleasure of driving this beast today and it fcukin amazing!
the clutch, so sharp and not to heavy! The power is unreal and never stops! Reving the whole way to about 5000rpm
and still pulling strong with more to go!
Didnt really try putting it hard into a corner as I didnt want to end up in a hedge or ontop of a roundabout!

Now you wont go lightly on them brakes will you steven? use them like i did i gave mine the blast of its life yesterday on the way back from sheffield 4500 rpm in 5th at 120mph she was begging for mercy but that was an accurate 120 as indicated by the roadangel. The mpg was at 18.9 with foot to the floor. My poor baby
