It's because it's remapped and chipped Si, simples

oh rite get ya

is it even a vRS? looks like a classic with a bad body kit bolted on - mind you, i do think this guy is trustworthy (wink wink)

just sent him a message lmao

i was a bit blunt ha ha

Going to ask him if he has the dyno print out

wow i feel very silly now why do we go to all this trouble with hybrid turbos when a chip and remap gets us 300 hp !!!

Hmm, dodgy.

Illegally spaced plate.

Was ESP available on that age vRS?

Checked the reg and it is an RS at least!

i was a bit blunt ha ha

now why does'nt that suprise me

i was a bit blunt ha ha

Thats not like you Clive

I got a reply "its got remapped ecu..and then have chipped fitted..and dont need hydrid turbos to make nearly 300 bhp..mate"

Oh well, just confirms what we already thought....

mailed too...........what a chump

just had a reply saying

he has spent loads about 2 k ( loads lol he hasnt started yet lmao)

he says it has a special chip in the ecu and he had the injectors changed and its really fast

chump of the highest order

Maybe someone should point out to him that if he manages to sell it and someone rolling roads it then ebay could make him give the buyer a partial refund for "Item not as described"

ha ha....

you crazy kids

Must be some chip

I had a whole bag of chips in the car the other day, and it didn't go *any* faster on the way home.

It does state down the thread that a previous owner fitted another turbo, Maybe that is true or not???

So maybe the car was or is running 280 and this owner does not know or has not been told what has been changed to get the BHP.

Blimey you lot are so judgemental

mmm,

Its not got a bigger turbo on by the looks as its still running the std MAF, as the Ebay CAI jkit like mine is too small diamiter for the S3 maf lol. Looks too std.

Why would you advertise it as having that power anyway? like someone will but it for the power. everyone knows they were 180 std. thats a mahoosive leap to get that magic number lol. wish I knew what he had done for 2k, he prob had a 1l micra before lol, thats why it seems to go so fast?

Good luck to him tho.....

sounds like he will need it.

Just read the update and he really needs to stop digging lol

Gone back to the standard exhaust by the looks of it too.

I quite like the body coloured rubbing strips though

Edited 16 August, 201015 yr by chicken_eyebrow

hmmm?

so its 300bhp? so lets say, now on standard exhauat cos it was too loud, now on a stock intercooler cos it was fudged,

mine was 500bhp, i took off the turbo cos i couldnt afford it

i took off the injectors cos i couldnt afford them

all the internals were removed because i couldnt afford them

the uprated clutch and my nice quaiffe dif i had took off because i couldnt afford them

and my 6pot 350mm disc i also had removed because..... i couldnt afford them too :clap:

my golly we are a mean bunch when provoked

Edited 16 August, 201015 yr by Lloyd55vrs

apparently, it has a big turbo....but he doesnt know what it is...and it used to have an intercooler.!

i feel it is our duty as we know he is a fecking blagger to all email him as many times as possible asking stupid....but kind of credible questions as if we are interested...

at the end of the day, he is being dishonest and it could be a forum member that ends up buying a lemon......

whos in?

i have already started by the way!!!

if it was a bigger turbo why or how is it still running a standard intake and standard maf etc etc can go on the guy hasnt a fecking clue

its still a k03s and prob has 210bhp at most lol

i think he maybe trying to climb out of his hole lol

maybe its voodoo or some other black magic
