Hey guys im a friend of Dzign's (Kits).

Im from a place called Widnes and im 23, i've had about a million cars but heres a small list of what i have owned..

Mk2 Ibiza Cupra Gti,

Starlet GT Turbo,

200 SX S14a,

R33 Skyline GTST,

Civic VTI,

FTO GPX.

Thinking about getting an Octavia VRS in April when i get my Tax rebate money! Joined the forum to gain some knowledge and see if its worth me buying a Skudmissile or get another 200 or skyline.

Few Questions..

Whats the handling like on them being FWD and not having IRS?

Whats the attainable Torque&Bhp without spending stupid amounts on having the engine rebuilt with forged pistons? (Uprated turbo available on standard engine???)

Cheers guys!!

Assuming you mean a Mk1... and the handling is very nose-lead and understeery from the box, although a rear-ARB transforms the car, if you believe the many many people with one :)

It's all available here if you search, but you're looking at 230-240-ish on the standard turbo, and I believe the internals are good for 350-ish (IIRC).

Hey, thanks for the response.

I have heard a rear-ARB does wonders.

Do you have any idea what turbo can be used as a direct replacement for the KO3s to flow around 300bhp?

welcome

Gave Neal a spin in my octy and he seem'ed impressed ;) Good luck in your search mate, hope you get one!

Hello and welcome.
