Welcome! Use the search button, there is LOADS of info on how to get more power out of these cars and they are really easy to tune. Best thing to start with would be a remap, revo is popular as is Jabba, Custom Code and a few others. Could also go for an induction kit, again loads of options. New TIP(turbo intake pipe by forge), exhaust system, new forge dump valve, loads of options.

This forum is a treasure trove of info, search and all will be revealed

Hi welcome and I completely agree with previous post.

Also, you have a 156bhp car

getting 230 out of it is very easy with the turbo you have now (a ko3 by the way) and to go a bit further and hold it, search for a k03s turbo. plenty of threads on that.

to get 230, you'd need the following (minimum)

stage 2 map, FMIC, TIP, Full exhaust (in DP) induction kit, and try and get a k03s.

May have missed something, but that's a start

also need handling mods

Thanks a mil guys yous are a big help. I dont want to sound silly but wat is FMIC and TIP.

Front Mounted InterCooler and Turbo Intake Pipe

dont get it mapped first though. make sure you have bought the other mods first, or its a waste of a map.

filter, dump valve. intercooler, tip, downpipe back exhaust, and with the standard ko3 i was told you should see around 220bhp with a stage 2 remap..

 

[Cupra_20vT]

cheers lads. as for handling does the wheel spacers make a big change?? i have coilovers in and its still bad a road holding.

 

[cus]

rear spacers are really good. usually people go for 15 to 20mm depending on the drop you have. also, ARB's and strut bars

 

[Mat]

uprated bushes also help

 

[Cupra_20vT]

will this stop the back end being light???

 

[cus]

it'll help it a lot.
basically the wheel base on the back is shorter then the front, so even jsut the spacers will help a fair bit, but if you have the cash, get some nice coilovers arbs and bushes
