Considering a remap for my 130 TDi

[knight85]

i just wished id bought 100 of them one a few yrs ago when they were £35!
ebay ones were selling for approx £50 plus delivery when i looked. probably better getting one from the forums.

hahaha your'll be lucky to get one on ebay for under 70! last two i saw went for about that price.

keep checking on forums, when people sell their cars and return to standard, its often the first thing to go as its easy to install etc..

Mapped my FR to 176bhp and 300lbft, clutch slip if you floor it under 2.5k rpm but after that its fine.

i got an 05 version....i have the green cotton air filter and pd160 air intake but have an st3 box which allows you to remap your car when you like with 3 different maps. i have the original/eco/fast on mine. pm if you want more details!!

edit: realised you cant pm me because of the rules, if you have any questions i can answer them here

Digby can you give us more info. on the st3 box???

hi guys, im guna custom code my fr. i've read about this 160pd intake pipe and air box. does this mean i'll need a 160 air mass meter to???

i had mine mapped and had turbo back 2 and a half inch pipe no cat or back box.
2 weeks ago it made 189.4 bhp and 312lbft on the rollers still on standard clutch and had it mapped 5 months ago so i have been lucky.
does any one no if i will get any gains from the 160 pd air intake pipe.
and saving for the pd 160 front mount intercooler as been proven to be beter than alard and forge

you will not see vast gains with the pd160 intake, not worth the money if buying it brand new as the gains given are not worth 75 quid

yea 75 pound thats why i was asking not cheap for a bit of plastic what about a seat sport front mount

I got my PD160 intake on Monday from my local dealers for £55 all in.

 

[Dan_Biza_Boi]

did you find a diff in temp or power

 

[teepee4bh]

i don't see the point......

especially if you still have std side mount intercooler....

a good re-map is about £300 i can reccomend somebody i've used several times

 

[philc]

55 seems very good...

Liverpool Seat quoted £76 for mine??

i dont think 189bhp and 312 aint to bad seeing as my car done 135000 miles and i have map and and straight threw pipe and everything else is standard but hoping for a little more with front mount then its all done for stage 2 hybrid
