Hi all, when I see the furby I will free up some cash to inject into the Octy.

£2000-£3000 is what I'm looking at.

£2000 would probably go on a Shark for a stage 2 (http://www.sharkperformance.co.uk/brands/Skoda/Octavia%20%281Z%29%202004%20onwards/Skoda%20Octavia%20%281Z%29%202004-2009%20vRS%202.0TFSi%20200PS/)

but looking into it is this the best way for more horsey's?? +60 for a stage 2 seems abit low to me?

But what else should I do? I want to upgrad the brakes but dont really know what the best way forward is for this?

Also, I have a columbus unit which I'd like to up-grade with either tv or DAB or would like to add blue-tooth to the car.

What would anyone else do if they had the money?

What would anyone else do if they had the money?

Revo stage 1 performance mode 2 + ITG intake + save the rest of the money.

[cav-mad-gav]

what do yo umean by stage 1 mode 2 ??

[Guest]

Revo performance modes for stage 1 on the tsi are 1 to 3.

1 is for 95 ron fuel, 2 is for 98 ron, 3 is 100 ron.

I'd get a good stage 1 map and spread the rest of the money around on handling and creature comforts.

[cav-mad-gav]

what sort creature comforts?

I'm new to the octy world so dont know whats out there for it

[Nick P]

Just thinking ICE really.

Things I just couldn't do without on mine would have to be my coilovers (it looks awful without) and my short shifter (it feels like changing gear in a transit without). The diff made the car feel like a different car too - SO much more fun to drive. I'd do all these things before brakes.

Agree the above - stage 1 map, good quality coilovers, arbs,short shifter and some light wheels.

I have an OEM skoda bluetooth kit which i had installed in my previous Octavia. I had it removed when i changed my 08 octavia for a 61 plate octy with factory fitted bluetooth. I have the full kit, module, wiring loom microphone bluetooth ariel. I had the kit fitted and removed by Ben at shark performance. I'm looking for £250 for the kit. Any interest please PM me. thanks

So are we talking tsi or tfsi?

Edit: either way slap a k04 turbo on it

[FUBAR]

I would prob be considering trading the octavia in with 3K on top get a newer one possibly

[cav-mad-gav]

Trade it i!a Ive only just got this one lol

[cav-mad-gav]

why would you trade in then? mine is 08 so the earlier tfsi (belt) enginer but other than that whats the advantages or going newer?

Will look into coilovers.

Whats wrong the standard arbs then?

[Brimma]

I think a set of red 6-pot Brembos should be on the list

[cav-mad-gav]

lmao, I dont think the missus will agree with that one.

Looking around brisky and t'interweb, its bloody confused.

Modding used to be so easy but everyone is useing codes that I dont understand, RARB for example.

I think the TTS shifter is a doer,

I want a re-map but not sure on the best route or who with.

[wardth]

"Right 'ard Rear Bumper" I think

[cav-mad-gav]

i dont get it? lol
