Jesus sorry to hear that they seem a load of **** thanks for the update.

Thanks mate, what a pack of ****ers.

Bumping this are these the same dodgy ones so best avoided. m.ebay.co.uk/itm/370969705665?nav=SEARCH&sbk=1 Says 480nm!? How much will an organic one take? Only looking at 320 odd.

Yeah came as a bit of bugger will let you know how I get on, just wanting something that will drop in which the hybrid pd130 will but get little better power at same without breaking the bank. I have to say thanks to John (Fabooka) he knows his ****. It's likely a hybrid pd130 which is based on a pd170 internals will make 5 to 10 bhp more than a remapped pd150 so with a bit of luck touch 200 bhp which ain't bad for the price, the problem is now they can make more torque say 20-30 lb ft more than a well tuned pd130 setup so would be nice to take advantage of that extra little bit of torque, hence question of keeping dmf but putting different clutch plate in etc. Can't complain with turbo for the price though. Cheers

So looks like my turbo decided to **** itself didn't think it would happen to me but never mind. It's a bit bad timing and to keep costs down I'm going to go with an Xman pd130 hybrid with pd170 internals. Has anyone dynod a pd170 on 1.9? I have the standard clutch setup and looking to take advantage of more torque and keep costs down, can you retain the DMF but put a slightly better clutch plate in? Or will it destroy the DMF. Torque was around the 300 lb ft mark, and will likely raise to 320/330 lb ft so don't see the point in going for a big power clutch kit. Cheers

did this sell?

No offence taken mate It actually does feel a little better actually.

Well I changed it for an improvement of course, I read gear changes would be better etc and smoother acceleration? I must admit I've only gone up the road.

Well tbh there's ever so slightly more vibration and what am I supposed to find better? Can't tell any awful lot tbh.

Hmm thanks mate, good skills. Not sure though lol.

Cool cheers

Yeah, at the end of the day IAT logs with vcds would prove/improve this. The 1756vk puts a little more power out.

Cool, how is it to remove the metal bit in the middle, just whack it out?

Cheers mate I wouldn't know where to start!

Loads of threads mate and I can't comment Yet, depending on the shore rating gear changing and acceleration will improve well move the feel of it as it reduces engine movement however as a downside you will get increased cabin Vibrations and some folk can't stand it.

Can anyone photoshop a silver fabia vrs, lowered with front lip etc with corsa vxr wheels imposed? Cheers

Any idea ideal how I can rotate the bush? Cheers

Yes because I'm not going hybrid anymore, one person said that but a guy at work I've become friends with runs a similar one and it holds up fine with a dark side turbo kit (1756vk), I just think it's forge not liking competition etc.

Cheers mate mate thsnks for the reply.

Hi just about finished fitting a txautosports fmic in the past, it seems a bit of a bodge! Lol. Got a few questions if you could please. 1 is it normal for the bottom pipe to go diagonal from the intercooler to the bottom turbo boost pipe? It isn't symmetrical. 2. Did you need the horns out of the way or competition relocate them? 3. Did you have trim any off the bumper inside? Seems mine is fouling a plastic sort of guide where the guide for smic used to be. 4. Did you notice anymore lag or better performance (probably only at top end) ? I'm remapped. Thanks

So mine isn't pointing to the front like in the pic, the fella I bought it off said awesome GTI fitted it like that. Does it matter? Cheers

Which way is the front symbol or Grove on the bush itself supposed to point to? If you look at the link above, is it supposed to look like that? Cheers

Bugger, what we talking in the line of fabrication? cheers

Hi, Were the fronts just a direct bolt in, ie remove old seats complete with sliders/mounts and fit these? And also how were the rears fitted? Just wondering, how they were fitted? Cheers

Cool, cheers mate.
