Seat Sport FMIC or Forge FMIC

[jamie8954]

As above really ibiza mk4 pd 130 FR

which is better seat sport or forge ?

 

[.Phase]

seat sport has much better, something to do with internal design... no brainer

 

[jamie8954]

so i can get the seat sport front mount off here , and will have to buy the forge boost pipes to fit the seat sport intercooler ?

 

[seatcupramad23]

seat sport fmic you can get much cheaper

 

[jamie8954]

ye i know they are alot cheaper but are they as good ?

 

[seatcupramad23]

depends how much boost you planning to run and what power you hope to gain

 

[jamie8954]

well not sure what power, will be gettin fmic hybid turbo and remap so stage 2 ?

Seat Sport has been proven to 350bhp...so wpuld have thought it will do, besides, it's a much better fit, and the Forge pipes for it are better that the Seat ones

EXCELLENT,

So i can get the Seat Sport FMIC + brackets for £287

Then i will need the boost pipes from forge which are £220.00 plus £9.95 from Damian @ DPM Performance

Is that the cheapest available prices for them ?

Cheers

Try Dave @ Sere Motors (one of the forum sponsors) for the best price on the intercooler. DPM is probably the cheapest place for the pipework.

excellent, just 1 last question

my car is 2007 56 plate just wondering if it will fit behind the bumper and that i dont have to chop the crash bar ?

Thanks

 

[seatcupramad23]

should fit fine and you should never chop the crash bar at least so i'm told

 

[jamie8954]

Yeah which is why i dont want to do it , think with frge you have to chop it

 

[Cos]

Yes it will fit behind the bumper, although you;ll have to trim a bit of plastic off the back. And it sits snuggly behind the crash bar, no modification needed

I know the Seatsport ones are no good for a hybrid TDi

why not ?

 

[Gooner_Mike]

Boost/pressure too much for it I assume.

 

[seatcupramad23]

suprised i've seen fabia vrs mk1 running hybrid turbo with standard smic @ 266bhp but not an expert

 

[jamie8954]

Boost/pressure too much for it I assume.

i will be gettin the forge boost pipes for it not standard ?
