Am i right in saying it seems more power can be squeezed out of the Mk3 than the Mk4? There's definitely a lot more higher powered Mk3's than 4's. But is seems Dan Cupra and Rashcupra are out to even out the numbers a bit....

I would be surprised of your standard ecu doesnt have an egt sensor rash. me7.5 does which is 2001 onward mk4 golf etc etc. I cant see one reason you need standalone. Your standard ecu can be mapped to run whatever with the right hardware.

Mk4 ibiza 1.8T can be tuned just as much as any other 1.8T be it in mk3 ibiza, leon, golf, tt, a3 etc etc

So how does it drive on the 19's?

Do you still put your foot down every now and again in the car?

Rash's is 18's iirc....

 

[Poverty]

Oh yeah dozy me. Hows it on the 18's!

He would have alot of trouble fitting 19's lol.

 

[rashcupra]

pj1985 i dont run a egt sensor honestly! and im going to be using the stadard ecu again just remapped just been speaking to jabba its going in for work on saturday should be getting it back the following weekend id imagine see how it goes!

the 18s are good actually looks mucho better but handling has been lost slightly

 

[mixupz]

Well you know there would be some kind of trade off...ahh well at least you got all that power to make you smile again

Rash I am pretty sure you car runs an me7.5 ecu as it is a later 1.8t. If it does then it has an egt sensor as standard. You dont have a gauge or anything to read it from but the ecu gets told what the temp is and can adjust fuelling accordingly and jabba do this according to stewbies previous thread with his visit to them.

It is an ibiza so maybe seat junked it but the leons with me7.5 deffo have it.

 

[rashcupra]

where does the egt sensor fit to on the leon for example?

 

[h17och]

in the turbo which is a k04 so i guess it was junked as k03s dont have it

 

[pj1985]

Later mk4 golfs have it and they are k03s. You should have it on me7.5. JBS may have disconnected it or something but it should be there I think.

 

[IbizaAlex]

So where on a K03 does the EGT go?? I was only aware of it being fitted to later K04 cars with VVT and wideband lambdas with a 1mb ecu file. All K03 cars have a 500kb file.

 

[rashcupra]

pretty sure my ihi doesnt have one built in as jbs would have said! jabba are going to be fitting it into the d.p apparantly.

Hope they can sort it out properly for you mate, been dying for a ride in it since last year!
