Abit of a silly question really but my friend has just bought an astra turbo and it doesnt have a dv and it sounds epic! Could i run the octy in the same way or would i upset it?

No problem. Thanks very much. I might be better off buying 1 off ebay fir the car and just coding it in.

Mine and the 4x4 is an auq and the audi is apy. Are the 4x4's 180bhp?

Hi all any help would be much appreciated. It would seem my ecu has packed up. Now i have a couple of options. The first and favoured one is an audi s3 ecu that i have. Can it be coded to my car?? Also i can get hold of an ecu from an octy 4x4? Same engine. I take it it wont be a problem coding that one in.

Yes i am going to upgrade both y pipe and s pipe with silicone ones. Thanks

Just a quick question. Would split breather pipes give any boost issues? Thanks for any help.

They dont have centre caps. I dont like them but they are yours if you want them.

heres one of the octy. i really want some spiders for it. heres the toy. and heres the project

I am sure i rang about this car when looking for mine. Its been on gumtree. He had no v5, wouldnt give a reciept and wouldnt let me go to him he wanted to meet half way

Yeah other than de cat and map its totally standard. Just been and got a map sensor but my missus needs the car for work so i will have to fit it tomorrow.

I am thinking to flash stock map back in and see if i can sort it from there. But then on the other hand it was doing exactly the same with stock map so would i really gain anything?

does anybody think removing n249,sai etc could cure this? the thing i cant get my head around if i remove the n75 there is no surging at all but it goes into limp mode as as it hits 12psi

No codes at all. It had maximum boost exceeded and brake light switch but both are sorted.

No it was mapped with manual boost control in. But it was doing the same with standard map. Without n75 it runs really well for a while then goes into overboost. But with the n75 in its all over the place.

Some may remember i had boost surge when i bought my octavia. after checking a few things i thought i had narrowed it down to the map. I had a standard map put in and it was exactly the same so the afm was changed and the n75 disconnected and manual boost put in. It ran perfect. But with manual boost control it kept going into over boost protection at 12psi so today i have put another new n75 in and its back to surging. It has forge 007. de cat & n249 bypass (makes no difference to the surging). here is a couple of videos of the boost gauge. If anybody can give me anymore clues i would be very grateful. i love this car when it runs right but cant live with it like this. If it doesnt get sorted this time i will break it. This is going through the gears. This is from 50mph in 5th gear with foot flat to the floor.
