Here is my car - sure you are sick of seeing it now, but I may as well put it in this section for all to see

Bought new in 2005, it has seen a couple of new engines, a few turbo's, many wheel/tyre combo's and a few choice mods along with about 4 maps.

Totally stripped of anything I don't need in it, I reckon it is 100 - 150 kg's lighter than standard.

A 2005 model Diamond Silver Metallic Skoda Fabia vRS.

The engine is now a Golf ARL 1900cc Turbodiesel.

In standard form it had 130bhp and did 0-60 in 9 seconds with a Vmax of 130 Mph.

Mine now produces 251.5 Bhp and 400 lbs/ft of torque.

Performance has been officially timed at 0-60 mph in 5.85 seconds, and a 14.3 second 1/4 mile run. Top speed is estimated at 150 mph +.

And what a car Dave

Top Car there mate, I was green with envy on monday

Wonder if they have washed the walls at Rs yet

Good figures Dave

Tis a stunning car that. Great work.

Great car, Impressive figures

Is it on fire in the first photo ........ :rofl::P:P

Good figures there I bet you have some fun with that :thumbup:

Top car mate, loving the reek coming out the back.

davy

What a map! :eek:

Bet its fecking brutal to drive, love it!!

bit slow off the start Dave and to 60 foot , tramps along very well after that

Impressive power band Dave. Richard worked his magic I see. Does the uprated injectors run better now with the map?

Must say - I'm sorry I didn't make an offer on this now when it was up for sale before. :(

Great Car - Well done

bit slow off the start Dave and to 60 foot , tramps along very well after that

The 60ft time is my 0 to 60 mate . You could go in one lane for 0 to 60 or the other for the 60 ft. I wouldnt call it a slow start. Could do better though. Im positive the car can get into the 13's. Thanks for all the comments guys :-) . Oh faboka, the map is amazing. No faults and brill mpg as well as insane power. The man is a legend.

Nice figures there, Dave! Sounds like it should be faster than the mongrel around Silverstone, as mine will not be running 100% at all. I'm going to be running with methanol all being well, and I might give the NOS a bit of a kicking too, so it could all be very experimental indeed. Should be funny to have two smoking fabias going around nose to tail.

Video!

Very nice.

So silver really is the fastest colour then !

i'd want the torque curve to look like the powre curve myself

also looking a tad smokey there too Dave! :eek:

Nice one mate. You've put a lotta effort into getting it sorted.

Just waiting to see what happens at TRAX

Bas

Nice performance.

Ive got to find a second on my quarter to keep up with that, ha.

Serious power.

Loving the reek also!

You want to see what with the map and why?

The torque "mound" at the beginning is to get the car moving.... You would have to drive it to understand really, and not be so petrol biased

More smoke = more poke. Id agree maybe its overfuelling a tad, but that will be to my advantage soon

That is a quite wonderfully offensive Skoda - love it!

Do you have any photographs with the lamp-pod attached?

i'd like to see the torque curve peak as high as it does but have the shape of the power curve so you made crazy power at 5000rpm

with those figures it'd be about 370bhp

I can't link directly in here, but...

A ride in this car convinced me to keep mine at a time when the se's future really wasn't that sure,awesome performance,and for all those looking and thinking 5.85 secs to 60 is not that fast,remember that a sprint is the cars WEAKEST discapline,the in gear shove of this vehicle has to be expierienced to be believed:D

Ahh, well thats one way of looking at it I suppose.
