Just bought JBS's octavia Vrs...

Featured Replies

WOW!

What a beast...only got it running 1.5bar at the moment..

But coming from a E8 running 355bhp...this will run circles around it...obviously not in the corners..

Even so...I'm impressed.

Amazed at the sheer brute force of the thing...

Well chuffed.

Got 2x Vrs now up the drive..

Fab Vrs and this...

Did I say I'm chuffed??!!!

    I think before bhp fly about get it on a dyno that's not been urm fiddled ;-) then we can see what it's running :-)

You must be so happy ;-) how much you pay for it ??

Hybrid gt35 one ?? Bet that spools like a bitch lol

post up some pics ;)

Yes pics please! Is this the one that was around 600bhp at one point with front wheel drive?

  • Author

Yes it's the gt35 one that kicks very hard!

Running over 600bhp without the nos,@2.2 bar.

Will get some photos up..

Here it is.

Car is in very very good condition,only done 35k.

No dinks up the side,paint is very good.

Couple of things I'm going to change cosmetically,

Remove/black the chrome..mirrors,grill,tint the headlights,move the badge on the back.

Apart from that...leave it "stealthy"

Well chuffed!

Went out in it last night..(drove steady home,long way back!)

No point in flooring it in anything below third..

Torque steers bad in first and second,revs so fast when on boost it just revs right off the rev counter..

But in 3rd...wow!

You have to keep an eye in the revs,because the power band is narrow..full boost is 5-7.5k

140 came up very very easy..on my private road..:-)

Honestly very dangerous if your not awake or inexperienced..

Wasn't sure what to replace my Evo with..

Was going to get a edition 30 golf,a k1 Leon,or a occy Vrs 170td (love them in blue),

Glad I found this..back to two black cars again..

(Had a black stage 2 LCR before the Evo)

Race ya?

You'll be wanting more one day mate,I know I will!

I bet niki at R-Tech would love to see this!

That's a bargin £7500 try buying and building a similar spec car for that money no chance,

  • Author

LoL!

Watch out...I come over Swindon way shopping at the weekends..

But just remember I have a wife and 2 kids in the car..

So don't expect me to go mad...unless I'm on my own!

Need to get it on the rollers to check everything's fine..

Haven't done any logs with vag-com yet either.

Yeh..truely shocking how much has gone into it..

I know I will get good money if I broke it..not that I would,

What a shame it would be.

How big is the nos shot?

Wonder how much a set of nice slicks would help ya ? Lol

I'm keeping mine forever mate...I owe it to the car now!

Not many/enough of these cars getting this kind of work done!

Mainly because its hugely expensive...oh the cost of trying to be different!

Niki at R-Tech does a really thorough job!

It wouldn't surprise me at all if he could make the car a lot more drivable to!

Do you have launch control or wide open throttle flat shift?

  • Author

No launch controll or NLTS..

Would be nice to have twin maps like the Evo had..

:-/

Get it down to Rtech and see what she rolls :-)

Mark your power is about perfect any more and it's waisted and you become a dyno only queen :-)

Forge fmic?

Jesus mine ran out at 300bhp!

I bet with a toyo fmic this will make good power with loads less boost!

And be less of a handful to boot!

Fast fast car

tbh I'd put another turbo on

 

GTX307xR will get close to that and reach boost 1000rpm earlier

 

Keep the GT35 for Santa pod though

 

There's loads that could be done to improve its handling too

Mines got 5 switchable map settings now!

And a valet mode so no muppets can wrap it round a tree!

I won't do anymore after my badger5 inlet.....I promise!

Snowy you don't need handling on a dyno lol

Mark you lie lol

I've said that about buying another Vrs and I'm on number 7 lol

Mines got 5 switchable map settings now!

 

Is that like Sky TV ? - lots of channels but not much to choose between them :giggle:

Ok Clive...maybe a wee shot of laughing gas with the bottle mounted on the back seat,fast and furious style!

Great car buddy, nice purchase :thumbup:

 

I remember seeing this in a article(maybe Fast car). Have that mag somewhere..

One= full power in all gears (don't use this one often,lol!)

Two= limited boost in 1st,2nd and 3rd gears with full power in 4th,5th and 6th!

Three= limited boost at 70% in all gears (for when its wet!)

Four= limited boost at 80% in all gears (for when its damp!)

Five= valet mode (for MOT time!)

I think that's it! Lol!
