Just wondered if any of you had seen this ?

http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthread.php?4272596-Fabia-1-8T-conversion.

does it have the same mounts then ?

Well the polo and Ibiza both have the engine in so it shouldn't be much of a issue to fit it in. It's the wiring that is the big job iirc

yep spoke to Jabba (very breifly) about doing this very thing.

As the old shape Ibiza and the Fabia are mechanically identical everything from a last run Ibiza Cupra 1.8T should port straight into the relevant places in a Fabia

Finding a nerfed Cupra is probably a bit tricky though

im not thinking of doing it,

just thought it might be of interest to some people,

looks pretty quick

oh and:

Hmm, both cars weigh about the same, and the Ferrari's gonna have a good 150bhp on even a tuned 1.8T conversion. Would like to see the pictures taken a second before and a second after the one you put up!
