New fab VRS owner

Featured Replies

Hi Peeps,

I take delivery of my new Fabia VRS Black magic next thursday :)

Got if for 10,999 from a car supermarket, sounded like a good price to me.

I already own a seat leon curpa and wanted to know a few thins with regards chipping etc..

I wanted to know what it the best way to increase the bhp of the skoda.

I already have:

REVO SPS1 for the cupra

VAGCOM and cable

KWP2000 but no map that stated VRS fabia specificly.

Was also wondering if the map on the SPS was generic enough to work on the fabia or weather i had to get it reloaded ???

Kind Regards,

Mitch.

if the leon was a PD 130 it may well work.... but isn't the cupra a PD160? if so I doubt it would work... different turbo, injectors ect.... but a revo on the fabia vRS should give about 160-180 bhp....

do a bit of a search, for things like the seat pd160 air intake mod ect... should throw a few things up for you :) rear ARB is a good one too.....

welcome to Briskoda :)

edit: if you have the map and it works, get your @ss up to the blackpool meet, and chip mine for me!

*Sharky ducks the skoda UK spies, and reminds them his is still standard........

thanks mate the seat leon cupra is a 1.8 20v turbo petrol. its just that i was lead to believe that the revo does not do a complete ecu flash, just generic value changes , ill be in touch when i get it.

Mitch.

You would need a REVO map on the ECU to sart with though.

would i ??

cus i pruchased my revo second hand from a owner who also had a 1.8 t cupra, i used it and it worked!

my cupra had not been anywhere near a revo dealer. didn't think that the command set in the SPS was unique to revo maps, but was bespoke to the ecu / engine map expected.

I always thought that the SPS switched parameters that were preloaded by REVO - Could be wrong though.

if you were correct then the revo map would not have gave the crc beep to confirm that modifications had been preformed on the non revo car, and indeed gave a big increase in power etc..

whith this in mind my question was this? is the instruction set generic enough to mean the same on a diesel ecu as a petrol.

i may ask the question to a revo dealer in the guise of "i have changed my car" etc... will let you know.
