AwesomeAl Posted October 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Must say Jeff has done a fantastic job of the K&N Typhoon induction kit he's knocked up for it!I won't be in work tomorrow when you pick it up, but if you speak to Andy, he'll sort you out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwesomeAl Posted October 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 (edited) yep it's my car and it was completely standard. Pick it up in the morningand can't wait to see what it's like to drive, will let you all know soon.How is it to drive mate? Didn't get a chance to road test the car myself, and wouldn't have been ideal anyway since I've never actually driven a standard one.Would love to know how you are getting on with it mate!Still looking for 1x 1.0, 1x 1.4 8v, 1x 1.4 16v (75hp) and 1x 1.4 16v (100hp) Any takers?

Its 400 pounds mate, wouldnt bother with it....

faithless Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 (edited) Right sorry not posted up sooner but wanted to do some miles in the arosawill get a pic up of the cold air induction filter 2morright.... have noticed the car is a lot more responsive and revs quicker since the remap and seem to be ever so slightly quicker. the mpg seems to have gone up a little as well, thebiggest improvement is low down from 1K to 3K seems a lot more chirpy.am well happy with it!edit: pic now added Edited October 16, 2008 by faithless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwesomeAl Posted October 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2008 Glad your enjoying it Simon!We've currently got Gibbeth's 1.4 16v 75hp and getting some good results I'll wait until he's got the car back to let people know how well it did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AwesomeAl Posted October 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Here's the results from Gibbeth's 1.4 16v 75bhp Unfortunately we didn't get a 100% standard rolling road run done, However the line with 85bhp Peak is with a K&N Pannel filter fitted and the Hot-Air feed from the Manifold Cover removed and blanked.We were quite supprised by this one! Managed a Cracking 90bhp @ the Flywheel, and 96lb/ft of Torque! Over certain areas of the power range we managed an almost 10bhp increase!Just been out on a short road test in the car and I must say I am impressed! The difference between when the car first came to us a couple of days ago and how it drives now is quite impressive! I didn't expect it to be quite as smooth as it was! Really seems to pull better in the lower gears!Anyway I will leave the rest for Gibbeth to report on :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timboc Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 sweet! thats quite impressive for the 75hp i defo want one now lol, i feel a trip to manchester coming on. so after these special ones how much we gonna be looking for the remap??

AwesomeAl Posted October 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 I'm not 100% sure at the moment. All I know is that it'll be less than the TDI's / 1.8T's etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee_ Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Looks like a healthy improvement, what results have you seen on the 1.4 TDi's?I've been driving one all week and it feels a bit asthmatic compared to the fabia VRs i ran for a year (which figures seeing as its lost a cylinder ).

Gibbeth! Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Just this minute got in, traffic was bloody hell, stupid friday traffic.Anyway, the cars much better. Once your at motorway speed, it seems to pull much better, and at roundabouts, it feels to pull much better. Ive just done motorway miles really, so cant say much around the low gears, but ill update once Ive driven it about for a few days, and ill try and work out an avergae MPG while driving carefully. That might be a couple of weeks though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LupoDan Posted October 17, 2008 Report Share Posted October 17, 2008 Still after 1.4 16V 100bhp Sports?My brother would love to get involved with his Arosa...Just got a BMC on it at the minute, but he's looking at a full exhaust system and manifold.Could rush it, get them done and then do it or do it before?What you think?

There are a lot of People on the Club Polo forum with 1.2 12v's who should be interested as it's a very popular engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
