Latest mod pictures...my hybrid Ibiza - now sold!
- Thread starter Ibiza 130 tdi
- Start date
You've put me off the headlining now!lol I'm just obsessed with everything being black like you seems to be now! Might see how much a pro re trimming the headlining will cost can't be as much as the cupra one surely!? Wheels look nice by the way and you know you will sell the vRS ones in a shot!
I'm not obsessed. You can have too much black.
And yes it can be easily more expensive than the Cupra. Cupra headlining is £190. I've already spent £100 trying to get the headlining right now! So it WILL cost me more, well, got a guy that might be giving it a go... so it might not be.
It looks AMAZING on the flat bits, but the corners aren't good.
We'll see. Cupra sunvisors, seat belt trims ordered so they'll go in when the headlining gets done.....if it ever gets done.
Should look great when done, yeh I guess after buying the fabric then paying the labour and materials cost to fit could be more that £190 I guess.
Like i say, the flat looks great now anyway!
Cupra bits ordered but now on backorder. So it's gonna be about an month until i get my interior back!
Well guys....
Going to pick up a nice PD150 turbo from Birmingham tomorrow then taking to Will at Performance Torque for him to hybrid it! So if any of you will be at the rolling road day tomorrow, I'll be making a guest appearance later in the day!
Will be booking my car in tomorrow with Will for hybrid turbo fitting/mapping and pimping! Hopefully will be running 230+ bhp in a month or two! Good times!

Nice one mate. Look forward to seeing the results
You know what it'll be like fella! Should be the same as Chris'. He should never have let me drive his.....
Just can't wait to chase and beat Evo's and Scoobs!
Will be a right laugh! HAHA! And I will do Aimez - if I remember. Might just be too excited.
One step ahead of me now then. Just got my clutch and flywheel in. Will be having turbo back system next month hopefully. Then i'll be joining you in the hybrid club 
I was in Chris' car last weekend and I'd say its on par with mine
He said that yours was better at top end..... To be honest the torque on the hybrid dervs will be MUCH better than yours but you've got more BHP....
It'll be good to see what results I get! I've heard of a turbo dynamics Ibiza getting 275bhp and 400ft/lb of torque! Not hoping for QUITE that much as that's just expensive!

Yeh....it had to be done! Tbh it wasn't all THAT planned. I just thought one day, "Done the intake, done panel filter, done exhaust, done clutch, done FMIC......it'd be rude not to do the turbo!"
Then this one came up nice and cheap! Off a car that's only done 22k miles so should be in good nick! Get it hybrid and slap it on! Just hope my clutch and flywheel will take it..... Your clutch setup....you must be happy with it? Apart from the noise it's incredible. So strong isn't it?
Yea, by 13* I was still pulling strong and started pulling away from him.
I thought Chris' felt just like a petrol but with the rev range of a derv

That's the thing, you can hold it for longer.....
It's like my sis, she's just got a Cooper S with about 180bhp. Mine is 186 now. But mine is a totally different sort of power. Mine's bottom end and her is top end.
It'll be good! I can't wait to give Impreza's a run. The best bit IS that it is a derv! Cos then it makes the Evo owners etc more embarrassed.

Where have you heard of a TD2 making 275bhp?
There supposedly only good for 260bhp.
I know paul at RS tuning did a TD2 not so long ago, that made 400ft/lbs but nothing like 275bhp. Think it was more along the lines of 240-250bhp.
Just out of interest, do you know who's rollers those results were on?
As for clutch setup......
It is incredible. So strong and gear changes are so fast now. Just feels so much better than the standard unit.As you said the only downside is the noise as it is quite noisy.
As for the evo's and impreza's. Try it on with an impreza wrx (non-sti) from rolling. You'll be pleasantly supprised

That was from Turbo Dynamics themselves! It was a guy in northern Ireland appaerently.
The clutch is very noisy yes!
I had that setup for a month or two....like you say it's amazing. Totally indestructable.....but I had my foot on the clucth ALL the time unless I was sat next to a lorry at traffic lights. And I try it on with everything as it is even now fella! Haha! Gotta do it for the crack!
Had a race with a bike the other day....beat **** outta him! Either he didn't know how to ride or he had a poop bike. It was only the straight. He kept up pretty well but gave up.
Stange. See with 400ft/lbs it shouldnt be making that sort of bhp going by what other have made.
Maybe slightly upwards of 250 but very little more if anything. To be fair having been in a hybrid pd130, I think no matter what the results, if its over 220bhp its going to be MEGA quick.
