So you mean "bore on that turbo" then, surely?

Anyway, back on track - the Bora looks awesome Neil! How much better is the Fabia now too?

UPDATE:

8th December 2008

The Fabia runs











The new Turbo is already feeling very Torquey although im only being careful with part throttle until the boost has been turned down. Also its made the induction kit much louder which is nice!

Its booked in over Christmas with JP Exhausts then it'll be time for another remap and see how she does....

Its getting there mate... Won't really know till its re-mapped but should be a sizeable increase in power and torque across the rev range hopefully

Yes mate! One of if not THE best Mk4 ever modified in my opinion... He's been responsable for spraying my cars for years. He's finished the Porker now... His latest toy is an A4 Avant on his old 19" Carlson rims Will get a picture next time im there.

UPDATE:

24th December 2008

The Fabia went up to JP Exhausts yesterday to have its Milltek Large Bore De-CAT fitted and also a Custom 2.5" System to be made up.

Here's the results













Wish I hadn't of brought the Miltek De-CAT though Fitment was terrible and the Bore coming out of the Turbo was only 2" before it flared to 2.5 whereas JP reckon they could of done a 2.25" (Same as the Turbo exhaust outlet) to a 2.5" And it wouldn't be banging against the bodywork as it did when they fitted the Milltek. Oh well

Time for all the Mods to come together next month when the car is Re-Mapped

UPDATE:

25th December 2008

A couple of bits turned up in the post yesterday and i've finally brought something for the Corsa

A small £10 Fuel pressure Reg for the Corsa



And a SPA Gauge for the Fabia displaying Boost Pressure & Oil Temp for piece of mind now i've spent a lot of money on it.



I've also removed the Airvent





And have sent it away to a company that'll do this to it so I can fit my new gauge
