Went in my mates MkI couple weekends ago, his is the pd130, thought it was a bit slow imo, but that might be because I'm used to mine? But would like to go head to head once it's all done.

Motor looks great. Wouldn't be fitting 18's though, would go 16 inch to retain and improve the handling! Also wouldn't go black, to much black there

You will need to serious £££ for 300bhp, think the most you'll get from the PD160 turbo is around 230bhp. Mine is 212bhp, 345lb/ft, just an exhaust and map though (It's a PD160 anyway).
This has over 300bhp:

Well had the fabia on the rollers at wallace performance on saterday morning and quite pleased with the results
It managed 204.2bhp and 303.9 ftlbs at the flywheel.
Trial fitted the 3sdm's aswell n they fit BUT think im goin to go for smaller tyres n more strech as wasnt happy with the height of it

How much were you for a rolling road run at wallace? Think I'll get mine on again, its had a few changes since it was run over a year ago, see if there's any changes.

New wheels look amazing although I'm not a fan of black on black. What make are they?
