yeerrsssh

got my new pd150 hybrid, pro alloy fmic, decat, helix clutch and smf and 312mm brakes fitter by jabba!

took it in on tuesday and finished and back today and boy is it quick! only 200-210bhp atm but once i've been to pipewerx for a custom catback pipe will be mapped up to 240ish!

haha will get pics and a vid of the clutch sound as someone requested soon

Dont forget it needs a service

Im not even jealous tbh :(

Dont forget it needs a service

thought the cambelt was done? lol

It was, but you also need whatever milage service the car is now on. Oil, filter, pollen filter, fuel filter etc.

winner! lol you scared me for a sec there!! thought the belt wasn't done! ok well thats cool i'll take it too the stealer to get that done! i feel i've given you enough money now hahaha

god i love my fabia soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much now and the sound is immense with the hybrid whistling down the decat!! tunnels are fun haha

I really need to win the euro tonight! Im not greedy I'm not asking for the full £27million just say £5m. Although if I did win that kind of money I'm not so sure I would be driving a fabia vrs for much longer really!

i think if i won that money i'd do the cupra 20vt conversion into the fabia haha or an R32 supercharged conversion!!

as much as I 've resisted bengie's nagging, and purely out of interest how, much is a hybrid turbo...sigh

Along with a awd conversion etc

Along with a awd conversion etc

ohhhhh yersssh god that would be the ultimate fabia!!!!

well chuffed with my FMIC! it looks mean when you know its there but if you just glance at the car your more drawn to the tt comps and slammage rather than noticing the fmic and realising what power lies beneathe haha

i was lucky as i got my hybrid,pro alloy fmic and 312mm brakes with decat for £1100 off a chap on here second hand! and the helix clutch and smf was £800 from demon tweeks although the prices have gone up!

a new stage two tubby is in the region of £900-1100 i think? someone will be along soon to correct me im sure!

although i say take the plunge and do it

...must say the 312mm's are amazing! feels like im trying to left foot brake all the time compared to the 288's!

Thats certainly the most important mod for me the brakes. I'm considering disconnecting the abs too when I get the 312mm set up as I've been without abs for so long and I'm really not a fan.

im really impressed with them! i've never ever had brakes so good but then again this is the most powerful car i've had lol!!

anyone thinking of getting 312's DO ITTTTT well worth the money!

Shhh dont tell them all, its hard enough trying to get hold of a set on here as it is! Soon as a set comes up for sale they are gone in an instance! There is a guy on ebay selling them at £290 a set (around that figure anyway) but I'm a tight git and want to find a set cheaper

yer i was in contact with him! he offered me a full set for £325!! if hes doing it for £290 now i'd take them as unless you find a tt in a scrappy you wont get a decent set for less than that...oh wait i did for £100 mwahaha

Can someone tell me whats the difference between a normal turbo and a hybrid one please...

Damm it, new i sold them too cheap, still enjoy. Can wait to get mine back had a look at it friday and its nearly there.

your next spend should be the diff, makes a world of difference.

It will be interesting to see what it reaches once Michael has a play.

I'll let you know when i come to pick it up, although if your around when there test driving it i dare say one of the Jabba boys will let you ride shotgun

Can someone tell me whats the difference between a normal turbo and a hybrid one please...

nicked from the turbo technics site!

"Most hybrid turbochargers will look identical to standard units from the outside. The changes occur inside, by using different aerodynamic configurations, both in the compressor and turbine housings."

tbh i didn't know what the difference was!

i doubt i'd be around as im working a lot and i only make the trek across boro to the jabba lads when my car needs something doing!! usually we just meet up in boro when we're out to play!

im sure i'll see you at a show sometime and i can bagsy the front seat on a lap or a trip to a shop haha:thumbup:

Did you get the roof castors fitted? Sounds like you are having way too much fun mate.

i have a cunning plan! as cunning as a fox who went and got a degree in cunningness at the oxford university of cunning!!! haha it involves a roof rack and skateboards upsidedown

I thought a hybrid used a larger compressor than standard? ie the exhaust turbine remains the same but the intake side was swapped to a larger one? Or vice-versa.

I've just bought some 312mm calipers and carriers off ebay for £156 and will order some discs and pads to go with them once they've turned up so a reasonable saving off the ones for £290. And my Jabba ARB will be fitted tomorrow. Yay! Think it'll be a while before I go down the hybrid route though!
