you may well have done mate. it was up there a few weeks back. but as of a week a go the car is no longer mine. i have sold the car and its going to its new owner in a few weeks. but i now own a Fiesta ST! such a great car, but i will stay on the forum for anyone that needs any advice and help!

Hey bud, the Skoda VCDs machine isn't able to enable needle sweep as I've tried with my friend. but there are some apps that you can get on your phone and get the dongle to go with that you can enable it.. as i am yet to do it. but i had the auto locking doors, seat belt warning taken off and the alarm bleep enabled.

Yeah I had to change the hubs mate. Mine were 256 standard.

As Richard92 said, 312's ☺️☺️

I am now declared with LV! They're surprisingly really good

My Monte has changed a bit recently! At Tunerfest (Brands Hatch) a few weeks back. Had a new exhaust made! Wheel Refurb

Holds boost all the way through mate

I believe it would be the same height bud. But it would help the handling.

Its running 0.8 Bar of boost, which is around 12PSI

Do it! Deffiently worth the money, it's transforms the whole car, overtaking is so much easier, it picks up so much quicker also! Fuel consumption is dependent on how you drive. I did a short motorway journey today doing between 60/70 and I was averaging 50mpg.

Where did you get your exhaust parts from buddy?

I've been told so many different things about fitting these. I have got myself some 312mm brakes. With carriers the lot. I understand I need to change my hubs? I thought that the hubs off of a MK4 1.8 or GTi Golf would fit? Or the MK1 Octavia This is for my Monte 1.2Tsi

I haven't notified them about the remap, I'm going to change insurance soon so I'll put it on then as I'll go onto a modified insurance.

Thank you, like I've said its personal preference, some people don't like it some people do.. It's good to be honest, yeah I've put a lot of time in to everything I've done!

Not always to everyone's taste, I just thought I'd try things and see how it goes. Everything I've done can be put back to standard.. But thank you mate, just thought I'd make a thread and see what happened

you got a video mate?

check my project thread.. http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/344800-jays-fabia-monte-carlo/

Although i don't class my car as a project, i thought id make a project thread and put everything into it.. that i could remember anyway. taken me ages to do but its done! Go check it out guys! http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/344800-jays-fabia-monte-carlo/

My next Biggest thing was the Remap, i had it Revo'd Stage 1! At Auto Specialist in Essex. My god it was worth it. It cost me £350 due to it being a christmas sale. And has put me from 86Bhp to 132Bhp at the wheels! and the Torque figure is at 165lb. The gain is amazing. It is defiantly worth doing and most certainly worth the money. Only problem is, with Revo... they use a bluefin and tweak the map. which means that if your battery is disconnected then you lose the stage one part of the map. But they will put this back on for free if it was to happen. My turbo is producing around 12Psi after this remap. Print Out, From AMD Essex On the Rolls! A Video of it on the Rolls! i think thats about it really, I'm sure there is more that I've forgotten, but ill leave it at that for now. ill just put some more photos up of what it looks like now.

I decided to make the engine bay look 'Pretty' so i added some red hoses, just little covers that go over your existing hoses. i believe they were about £12 from eBay or something, not expensive. Ignore the painted engine covers, the paint i used was not right and the heat has just ruined it. i need to have the professionally done. This photo is to show the Air filter i have, this again is from halfords... just purely for the sound. i like the let of noise it makes, which you can hear in the videos above of my exhaust. when i put this on i also took the little restrictor out of the induction hose. to make it a little louder and to allow more airflow. I will eventually buy the Forge induction kit which will replace the hose with a red silicone one and i will also buy the forge blow of valve.

DeBadged the Back! Before: Skoda is gone: All gone:

Also i have meshed my fogs, which i really like. its a cheap little thing that any one can do. How to get the fogs out! No Fogs! Before- After- Side By Side- Cant really see it in this photo, Bright White DRLS- Closer on the DRLS- Daylight Photo- Closer in Daylight-

I did at one stage have coilovers, and i loved it! but i had to take them of for insurance reasons. but i put the photos and stuff up anyway. Coilovers- Coilovers in- Wheel on- Sitting low- These Photos are with the adjusters in, i then went on to take them out! Possibly the best photo i have of my car: But i have taken them off and I'm now on 40mm Springs. These coilovers are FK Streets (i believe) The coilovers were not the best in the world, due to being cheap. if you just want the "low" look then yeah they are worth it. but otherwise spend the money and get a decent set that the ride will be good. these did handle really well though! great round corners!

Now onto the under car Leds; These are what i used: http://www.ebay.co.u...=STRK:MEBIDX:IT The Specification of the LEDs are 2 x 48" (120cm) Neon LED strips ( 72 LED ) 2 x 36" (90cm) Neon LED strips ( 54 LED ) and the cable is about 250cm, on all 4. i also put the negative for both the under car leds and the interior onto the spare point in the ground cable on the battery- Inline fuse- The Passenger lights and the front strips i have brought the cables up and through the arch liners and into the engine bay, also if you see the big red cable cover, this is where i have hidden the majority of the wires, as there is quite a lot left over from the one in the engine bay, and power cables etc. - And the same with the other side- also when doing this i have hidden most of the cables in the red tubing i have all other the engine bay. i brought the drivers side wire over the front of the top of the grille and i have mounted the box there with a cable tie- This is where i have put the under car lights, there is a gap just big enough for them on the underside on the under panel? i can't remember the name of it. i used double sided tape (3M) and i used cable ties at regular intervals. This is where it goes up and into the arch liner and into the engine bay- i put this one in the engine bay due to not being able to get in onto the rear bumper because i have had the exhaust cut in and it is to big to go on and would look silly. the way I'm going to get around this is by just using red strips that i can cut and ill put them around the bumper and put them onto the wiring with the LEDs atm with a switch. The outcome- After fitting these, i Put led strips in the grills and the bonnet (underside) These ones run off of the same power source and fuse, but they go onto a switch inside the car, which also when the switch is on gives power to the under car ones.

I then went on to having a universal exhaust fitted, which i done in two stages. The first was this: I just had it fitted, so it sat under the bumper. sounded okay, it does drown. but that is due to it being universal. A little video of it: I then went on to having the centre silencer removed, and having the bumper cut and the exhaust raised. And a Video: My Under car LEDs and boost Gauge; When fitting the Boost gauge to the 1.2Tsi you will need a Forge adaptor, for the vacuum hose to go onto which is £40 from forge. http://www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/Boost_Gauge_Adaptor_for_Audi_VW_SEAT_and_Skoda--product--1062.html
