This thread is about as useless as a chocolate teapot, unless all cars were tested on the same dyno at the same time.

That is quite true, but it will still give some kind of indication. Superchips oftern result in being the most safe option with a more mild increase.

What about other mods which might allow greater power?

pd130, vt2 hybrid, FMIC, green filter, cupra intake, Exhaust = one pipe...

Jabbasport: 221bhp, 360 lb/ft

What size turbo does the 160 Cupra Tdi run?

What size turbo does the 160 Cupra Tdi run?

same as yours.

 

[Georgel]

same as yours.

So PD130 and 160 have the same blower? What other differences are there then?

Opps know, the 150 & 160 have the same vnt1749b turbo.
The 130 is a vnt1749a.

Slightly different. The B will do 1.8-1.9 bar without too much problem, the a will get you about 1.7 max.

Nice one cheers bud. I am looking to replace my Tdi sport with a 160 next year if the prices drop a touch.

 

[devonutopia]

Think the 10bhp on the 160 is achieved through the FMIC and a more aggressive map.

Its agood idea - FREDS TDI Club have this system and works quite well - if your trueful!! pehaps the web designers can come up with something that we can upload/download etc.??

would be good, I'm looking at having my Fr 130 re-mapped but with so many companies to choose from - how do you pick?

Agreed this thread ain't much use, figures from rolling road days are better (all done on the same day and same machine)

You can't choose on BHP figures because rolling roads;-
- Can be fiddled
- Have poor operators
- Are calibrated differently
- Are made by different companies to different designs, software etc

I have seen 30bhp difference between to Rolling Roads....then again it could have been the car....which is part of the problem.

DYNO's are a Lottery.

You choose on the tangible area;-
- Test Drive or Passenger Ride(perhaps another forum member at a meet)
- Customer Service - If the dealer is 300 miles away and you have a problem is that a issue for you?
- Cost
- Other Benefits - Is the code switchable back to stock? handy if it's under warranty and needs a service
- Free Trial with some codes
- Size of Tuner - If R&D into their product is important
- Personal Taste (smooth delivery or with a wallop etc)

So yours is like 215 plus at the fly on a standard map???

It would be roughly - maybe 210. Mine's 181 @ the wheels and 221 at the fly.

 

[Georgel]

Do all the Curpa 160 TDi's mate 210 - 215 standard??

 

[prc]

In all honesty the numbers seem a bit optimistic to me. There's usually a 25-30hp loss on the beezas.

 

[devonutopia]

Yeah, and mine has hit 190 at the wheels at another rollers, so its hard to tell true figures, as usual. Going to see what interpro at Bristol makes of it next at the end of April.

 

[prc]

Personally I don't worry about the numbers to much just the curves....
