New Fabia picked up yesterday. Cayenne orange yet again, full service history, two new tyres and in very clean condition. No plans as such other than a good service and the usual bushes. Needs a window reg so I’ll do that with a new ‘how to’ for the guides section I think.

Hi guys I've got a 2018 Seat Toledo 1.0tsi 110bhp with a manual gearbox and I have just had it remapped by Angus @ Kap Tuning in Folkestone. Angus has mapped 2 of my previous cars to great success so I trust him implicitly with my cars. The car has done just 7,500 miles so it's still quite low mileage, it's only ever ran on V Power so I hoped the standard power would be healthy, or at least the 110bhp from factory. On to the rollers and after some health checks Angus made a base run. It made 117.9 bhp which I was very pleased with as its completely standard. It goes to show that better fuel does yield better power. Angus studied the dyno graphs and pointed out that there was a boost drop off at 3,500rpm which was holding everything back. He spent and an hour or so re-writing the ecu and making his adjustments. After all was done he made 2 power runs. The first run yielded 140bhp, a good improvement. The second and final run made 143bhp, a significant improvement over standard. The result is a much happier car, pulling well through the rev range. It's never going to be 'fast' but now at least I have released its potential. I will post the graphs up if people are interested to see them.
