The power of a Skoda Fabia

You are right, I feel the same, we are all on the same forum with the same vehicles and should be working together but instead there are the few that are aggressive and are trying discredit others. I am in Shrewsbury so it might be beneficial for a trip to one of the guys you have recommended. I will try someone else who is local and who has spent a lot of money on a dyno but is not in the know of these sort of events. Let me try him and I will post the results for you guys to examine and reflect on. -

We were unable to do a before and after on the day but we did do a comparison with other vehicles and being the second highest run on the day was good but the problem is I have now learned that the guy doing the run can alter and results by the way he conducts the run. We need to start with someone we can trust -

Thanks for this, I have seen a Shark performance sticker under the bonnet of the vehicle we now own. We have just bought our Fabia from someone off the forum so we need to see what has been done and what more we can do. I am not sure what we are trying to achieve with all these dyno runs and mods, is it to finally have the most powerful Fabia or just have a vehicle that is reliable and fun to drive? It is amazing to see what a basic engine can do and it is a credit to a VAG engine that can handle such an increase in power. How many other engine manufacturers can boast a similar increase? I suppose that the challenge is on for the most reliable and powerful engine, it is our R&D for our other high performance projects that we are involved in. -

You are right as a newbie and not having the experience in reading the graphs I was taken for a ride but as a honest person myself I did not realize that a so called reputable company would pull the wool over our eyes for no real gain. At least I now know that the forum is full of experianced and helpful guys who are willing to help the newbies. I now plan to use another company for our dyno runs. -

It is very difficult to post this without being totally shot down but some of you guys were correct with regards to the figures we posted. In my defense we paid our money, along with many other enthusiasts, to get a honest dyno run, but since then we have found that the figures we were given were incorrect. We have since returned and done a rerun and found we were about 40 Bhp down. Should we ask for our money back, or realize that all dyno runs can easily be fixed. I suppose on a positive the weather was good, people were passionate and the burgers were great but the results a waste of time, we move on and soon will prove we do have a very powerful TDI -

I am new to this but compairing "apples with apples" on a rolling road day it did outrun a 3.0lt BMW and many more, Clutch has been upgraded and is doing well. -

Pleased all is well, we have moved on a lot. -
This is a run of a Skodia Fabia that has only had a turbo, injector, intercooler upgrade with a good map, the rest is totally standard and these are the results we got. 357 Bhp and 398 Nm of torque, a bit smoky but it pushes you in the seat. ?You will struggle to find an diesel engine as reliable as a Skoda
