Skoda Superb III 4x4 280 - A sleeper’s journey – 280ps to 560ps

[Adrian55555]

Just seen this appear on you tube

 

 

 

[spk]

Also appeared in my YouTube recommended videos today.

 

The weight of the car is impressive too, aside from all the modifications. Possibly the single best advantage over the mk2 Superb!

Hi, wanted to forge a brand new engine to ensure the block etc would be perfect and also not keep the car off the road for a long time.

So bought a new engine, forged it, swapped them in a couple of days and then sold the original one.

[toni8b]

Mind me asking the price for brand new engine?

It was a package deal with forging, apr clutch pack, bigger turbo etc. The total cost of all mods is in the Youtube video...

Had some interest and one offer but still nothing firm. 401k views for the video so should happen eventually 

[Adrian55555]

Good luck with the sale! And hopefully that video generates more interest!

Very impressive.  I have previously had cars re-mapped but decided against doing the Skoda as the wife drives it more than me.  This post might just have changed my mind.

Can I ask where you having the soundproofing done?

Last I heard Darth was up for sale, Did it go to a new home ?

Amazing car, well done on the conversion.

 

I wish I could afford this car as if I was going to upgrade I would buy a MK3 Superb

He has gone a bit mental with a Fiat 500. There is a Living Life Fast video about it on You Tube. Got about 250bhp from the 1.4Turbo Abarth engine.

[superbtte]

The Abarth video was done on the same day as the Superb video :)
