What Mods have you done?

[Mr Cellotape]

As above really, what mods have you already done to your MK5 Ibiza?

 

[ibizasc-chris]

im not really into modifing that much, plus i like the way the car is standard.
might do a couple subtle mods later.

what kind of thoughts are there on power for the new mk5's?

 

[Mat]

i'd be guessing similar power as the mk2 leons if they drop a 2.0 tfsi lump in em (with some tunage)

And thanks to the likes of Rash, T. Spark (with his DERV), DPJ, H17oc, Badger Bill. It's been proven that anything is possible when it comes to tweaking the engine a little

the 1.4 tsi cupra will remap to about 210hp.

They really need to make a model with the leon FR engine in it.

 

[mixupz]

it'l hgave the same engine found in the golf 1.4 twin turbo supercharged iirc..

 

[kennyrlc]

I was thinkinking about mod's but I don't want to void the warranty. I'm told that even putting a sticker on the bumper might void it...

 

[googies]

It might void the paint work on the bumper! But rest of car is ok on warranty front! bit silly if you ask me.

 

[kennyrlc]

So what if I add a sub or something like that?

sub wont void the warranty.

First thing I did was change the horn. I would be too embarrased to use the pathetic stock one

I got some compact airhorns from Halfords. The went in roughly the same place as the original, but I had to bend the bracket. I didnt use the relay as the original had a 20A fuse rating. The connector needs to be cut off & replaced with a couple of spades.

Ive tinted the windows on mine. I had a problem aswell with all my speakers they distorted at a low volume regardless of the bass. So under the warranty they changed all six speakers to JBLs hehe.

Hey michael,

What engine did you get to 104.5bhp with?

-Cyph

 

[googies]

states the spec in his signature!

 

[Leonidas]

the 1.4 tsi cupra will remap to about 210hp.

They really need to make a model with the leon FR engine in it.

Iv read somewhere that it'll go way higher than that.....

 

[Leonidas]

''The 1.4 liter TFSI with 150 standard hp and 240 Nm also gets a B&B boost, taking that diminutive power plant to up to 220 hp and 330 Nm of cranking power''

If the 150 goes that high, the 180 will hav to go higher again.........
