Cheers mate the 110 isnt a pd engine, so is that little more harder to get as much power like the pd130/150 etc, but atm, i hope rekon im putting out around 175bhp-180bhp and 270-280ftlb, hopefully a little more once ive installed the fmic Get one, you wont regret

I'd be more than happy with 175bhp lol....love to show the usual 17 year old lads gary boy Corsa's/Clio's up with a diesel.

Stage 1 AMD re-map will be first on my list. Should get 140-145bhp straight away?

Any tips on how to make it sound less "diesely"? lol

Finding a good second hand one is hard though. All done starship miles in my budget.

140 easy with a map, and a few little mods like modded airbox etc, oh, if you want it less diesely, get a milltek decat downpipe with either a straight through cat back with no silencers etc, or get a milltek non resonated cat back, hope that helps mate

 

[Crossy20]

Ahh nice one, cheers for the help mate.

I see you use Jabba. Recommend them? I see they're only in Peterborough, nice and near to me and their stage 2 custom re-map looks very tempting lol; they also stock the Milltek non-resonated cat exhaust

 

[brightsideteeem]

Mine is clattery as **** on idle, makes it even funnier when you show someone up at the lights
cant wait to see your build progress on the FMIC brad. Oh yeah found out what the clicking was, 2 little bends on the pads had bent and snapped off, so i need a new pair now. Lol

I use AmD in essex mate, they stock milltek range too and have very good maps aswell

Ahh sorry my bad, on the first page you said you were considering a Jabba re-map. So i assumed.......lol

I was, but in the end decided on AmD

 

[brad1]

Well my new intercooler pipes turned up today

Ive got loads of pipe, so got rid of my "scaffold boost pipe" and redone it with the new intercooler pipe its weighs a third of what it did before

And ive made up the bottom intercooler pipe already You can see the blue silicone joined will attach to the pancake pipe then the angled pipe with join the 76-63mm reducer off of the intercooler

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

Looks good so far mate, not sure I'd trust those jubilee clips with your boost tho? or have you beaded the pipes?

 

[brad1]

Cheers mate, the pipes have been roughed up, didnt come with beading, and these jubilee clips have been fine so far on all my boost pipes though im getting some stronger and better ones from the jubilee clip centre near me The ones behind the bumper i will be doubling up for peace of mind

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

The T bolt ones off ebay are very good, cost quite a bit but 15 times more claming pressure than a jubilee [so it says]

I've not beaded mine either but I'm going to soon

 

[jonjay]

Which ones are these Adam? Looking for nice new clips for mine.
