Thought I'd make a thread up of my fabia journey seeing as I have done a fair bit to it now and slowly getting to know other fabia owners so time to get to know more of you . I wont bore with a long detailed story of whats already been done as the pictures will do most the talking for me

 

I went from owning a seat leon cupra running 270bhp 285ft/lb with launch control to the fabia vrs. I bought this car back in February 2014 with 118,500miles pretty much standard other than fk coilovers, 17" spider alloys and the roof, wing mirrors and door centres painted black. since then I have added my own touches to make it my own.

Since owning I have;

• fitted black depo headlights
• changed to 16" fox 006 alloys
• got it remapped 168bhp 265ft/lb to try to shrink the power difference I was previously use to
• changed to staggard 17" xxr530 wheels 8.25j front, 9.5j rear with 205/40 stretched tyres
• fitted 312mm front brakes off octavia vrs
• fitted 6000k hid kit as the standard bulbs wernt much cop when dark and raining hard
• fitted a miltek turbo 2.5" back exhaust from awesome gti
• changed to s2000 air filter when service was due
• got a 51mm egr delete of a group buy on here
• added a bit of colour to the bay with red top silicone boost pipes to side mount
• went for the wide mouth front bumper look with a sticker number plate
• got the seat sport front mount intercooler off a forum member and bought the 57mm egr delete, and 57mm silicone hoses to go with it
• remapped to 185bhp 285ft/lb at cc tuning
• changed to the darkside hard pipe kit as I kept blowing hoses off at most inconvenient times
• got the door bump strips painted gloss black 
• made a bracket and fitted omp bucket seats and harnesses

Yet to be done/plans;

 

• fitting pd150 headbolts (fitting tomorrow)
• fit a gtb17/60vk hybrid turbo from xman turbo's
• remapped yet again
• finish drivers vent boost gauge pod
• get a rear anti roll bar
• fit quick release bumper ties
• possibly lsd depending how the car drives after the remap
• full re-spray eventually 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Looking good mate. I'd recommend fitting an LSD

Cheers yeah i probably will get one be interesting to see the comparison between having one and not fitted the pd150 headbolts today so one step closer to having more power just need a day to fit the turbo and get it remapped the same day
