Gooner_Mike's Ibiza FR 20vt

How are you finding the P-Torque remap? It does not seem to offer the increases in BHP and torque that Revo and Custom Code do... but then it is cheaper!

P-torque get the thumbs up from me, good strong and smooth map

Not a bad guess

Blades are from wiperblades.co.uk! Really good in this crap weather we are having!

New LED sidelights and HID photos

Got some new LED sidelight bulbs this week and so I thought I would take some more photos of the FR, including the HID kit I fitted about 3 months ago. Enjoy...

LED sidelights from ebay, can't remember the site but will look for it now (seller called gxxled). Not impressed with the last pair I had (from a different source ) which blew quite quickly. Going for these different ones now and we shall see how they get on! Might switch back to normal bulbs if these are crap.

Only problem is bulbs don't look as good as LED next to HIDs!

Hids look great is that the hids4u pro+ kit?

Hids look great is that the hids4u pro+ kit?

Yes it is...

 

[Altech]

I've heard that with the discount code you can get that kit for £85...is that still true?

Not sure to be honest. I went down to their place in Southampton and picked mine up (for £100.) 2yr warranty is reassuring too! The light you get is amazing and I have not had one single flash from people about the glare either. A great mod and highly recommended.

 

[st10587]

do they have slim ballest or are they the usual bulky ones?

Bulky I think but they are not too bad! I have one tucked down inside the battery box (passenger side) and the other stuck to the wing (drivers side).
