Like i am also european i also talk from flywheel/bhp.

If you max out the injectors and want kind of clean combustion and revving not to high, you will end up with 215hp @ about 4500-4700revs.

You can get a slight gain from using custom cam to about 225hp but thats it then.

These numbers are calculated and tested on different dynos.

There is a member on here (sooty22)aswell as a former member, T.spark) who has 230bhp from a hybrid on a pd130 with standard injectors without smoke. So it is possible.

Im with Mike on this one, the issue has since been resolved with Ash and Will and tbh this is just digging up old news.

I have total faith in Will as person and his mapping skills and knowlege. I have had 3 cars mapped by him and a few other people I know. Im more than happy with his work.

Hey everybody is human and makes mistakes, be it Will or any other parties involved. Give the poor chap a brake;)

By the way, the Seat Sport FMIC works much better than the one from Forge.

Greets, Alex

It does!

Yerp. Chris's is a right animal! :drool:

This is a Readers Rides thread. Deep debates on fault/blame have no place here. :)

It's your rules and your forum, but this is my mods thread and I certainly don't mind deep debates happening on here. I personally think it's the only way you can learn but each to their own!

Seems my thread has been quite eventful while I've been at work! Luckily I got it all in email notifications! :D

what torque figures are you running out of intrest sooty22??

He's running 377ft/lb if I remember correctly!

I have spoke to will before and had my Ibiza’s exhaust fitted through Will and always found him helpful, and a friend of myn has had his car mapped through Will and the service was second to non - and he had good results. I can understand people wanting to know what the service is like, however when people who haven’t dealt with P-torque before start attacking the business I believe it to be unfair as they simply don’t know so should not comment, what happened with Ash was unfortunate but I don’t believe it is P-torques fault just crossing of wires between two companies. The only person in this thread who can comment on this experience is Ash, and if he and P-torque have come to an agreement it is between them.

I understand what people are saying and to that end, I will be directing my business elsewhere. I can not risk being another Ash.:(

Im not sticking up for the turbo company, but do you really think they'd mess turbo's up? Just a question!

Yes I am the only person on here that knows what truly happened, apart from P-torque. But even I don't know a definitative answer. Hence why I am doing some research and finding out for myself what acutally DID happen. Not to point fingers, but to wonder why I was kept awake at nights, carless, had no social life and couldn't go anywhere while my car was away! I just want to know what really happened!

If ANY of the companies involved read this, I dont want you to email me/call me etc. I just want to find out what happened by myself, for myself so I can finally tie it all up and let it rest!

Thats your choice at the end of the day fella. I can see where you're coming from, but there has also been a lot of good feedback about the company. I'm not going to sway your decision at the end of the day, it's your car, your problem. :lol:

I can understand your point, and as i have never dealt with the turbo company i am not in a position to comment, i hope you do get to the bottom of the problem for yourself. The only point i was trying to make is that people cannot comment on a company if they havent dealt with them before. (hence why i cannot comment on the turbo company).

I hope you have better luck going hybrid this time, as the car looks very nice and it would be a shame for you to give up.

Thats a fair comment to make! And thank you for your support. :)

I understand that Ash. My concerns are that a turbo was sourced FOR you, sent off for conversion and fitted by PT who didnt know it was the wrong one. Surley the invoice will say what it is???? This is what corncerns me!
Then whilst custom mapping, not notice that the car is "overboosting" and going into limp home mode???
If the car was tested on completion this would have been apparent!
