remap

[vtxracer]

When the tsi ibizas came out i was searching some info and i read somewhere that the intercooler on the mk5 Fr-Cupra is twice as powerfull (and lighter) as the mk4 cupras intercooler. With just a remap i dont think there will be any problems.

The intercooler is tiny running along the lower edge of the bumper, it is also pretty heavily blocked up. Interestingly enough ETKA shows it as a full height intercooler which is isnt. There is no way that has anyway near the capacity of the FMIC from the MK4 Cupra. When Forge first looked at mine the head engineer chap laughed at the standard effort.

 

[swampy06]

ouch now that sounds alot diff, lol, techie me bein thick wats the bov spacer doo pal

 

[techie]

Makes a noise.

 

[swampy06]

just like dump valve yeh ?

 

[techie]

Yeah..lol

The BOV (Blow Off Valve) is audible with the spacer.

so what your trying to say then techie?? it isnt worth having a map without changing the intercooler??

does make you wander what they were thinking when they rolled these off the factory lines!! lol

I dont know, I would assume Revo have mapped looking at inlet temps although I havent seen any data. Would love to do some data logs on Pauls car on a track day.

i think i will let there be a little more light shed on this before i go for my remap ill stick to the simple stuff 1st, exhaust and other breathing mods.

That'll probably put you in the 205bhp region anyway bud. Remaps are certainly an interest to me but I'm holding fire for more people to have tried them. Also call me tight but I don't fancy paying full retail for a bit of software, I'll wait until there is an offer on.
