No Mod Update - just posting pictures taken recently (and saving £££ to do the next mod) :)

Yes mate saw it on YouTube, was cool to see thanks

373hp Mini holy sh- that's mad haha, can only dream of even getting up to 300 currently with my Pug :') Want to get my Pug mapped with Dervtach also, but I'm a 2Hour+ drive away aha

Sounds good :) I've hit hard times financially but do hope one day to go on some track runs if I find some cheap one nearby. The photos from yours a while back were awesome, get us another good shot if you can ;)

No just cat back with the mandrel bends (no resonator but it does have a muffler at the back [didn't want it to be too loud for the neighbours]), am looking to get the rest done and sports cat, just quite pricey so a long wait if so. Don't currently have a boost gauge fitted, bought one for...

Not had it mapped after the few things added but it should be around 275/300 Nm of torque (197bhp). Which statistically sounds pretty good, but it just still feels kinda slow (at least with acceleration) when doing 40-70mph. Not sure how much HP is needed to feel more powerful but certainly more...

Was wondering if I could get some help now......... Hit a point where the next mods I was considering, are now VERY large sums of money, which is off-putting..... is there something I maybe missed, would be a good shout to get before or would help before I look into now the expensive pricey...

Forge sounds goid but yeah the remapping is unfortunate... usually a matter of time before someone cracks new ECU's so hopefully not long for you

Looks lovely mate, nice red and the Fr adds a bit of style =) Forge Motorsport do one for it I think mate, FOrge are expensive but top quality [imo] (https://www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/Induction_Kit_for_the_SEAT_Ibiza_and_Leon_VW_Polo_Skoda_Fabia_and_Audi_A1_12_TSi--product--1115.html).

Yeah with the miles EV's get you that's understandable aha

Hey welcome and well there are some cool looking Kia Soul's out there :) Remap's probably the most efficient thing we can do first thing yeah =)

I don't do tracks but that's interesting to know =)

Didn't see this until now, am considering now =)

AMG C63 That's neat! =)

UPDATE : Done a compression test (thanks for the suggestion!) and thank the heavens, all good, they checked the gasket and other things, all happy. Looks like taking my foot off the gas, pausing, and then driving smoothly and slow the rest of the journey may have saved the day, as I presume if I...

Awesome stuff, take good before and afters as you mod it out (if you do plan on doing things to it :D

Ah damn sorry to hear mate, think I've caught that or some virus (everyone seems to be catching something lately)..... hopefully it's not too bad your end.

I think the time to retire is simply the time it no longer is fun and enjoyable, if ever :P am 26 and yet to start, good lucm on the track day!

Hey hey! Awesome car wish I could affordf a Skyline aha. I always go to ForgeMotorsport (https://www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/) first to see if they have as they're a bit expensive but good quality products. Otherwise (https://www.japperformanceparts.co.uk) might have the parts you need. Although...

Sadly, there are bubbled in the coolant resevoir, and some evarporated air the first few times. Fudge if I'm unlucky this sounds like it could've gone real bad, compression test sounds good thank you I'll see if I can arrange such. But yeah it seems to have been running fine, not noticed...

So, I had my car serviced, and they flushed out all the old coolant, and were suppose to replace it with new, but later found it that did not happen. So when on the A1M my temperature speaked off red, I slowed down, then drove slower keeping it at normal, got home and realized there was ZERO...

Update! Last night fitted a Forge Turbo Blanket =) Absolute NIGHTMARE to put on with the small compact engine bays, hands bloody & cold by the end of it.

Yeah you can edit posts, should see this below ; And never seen a Pontiac in the UK, presume it's US only, got a nice shape :)

Thank you! and indeed so :) Was surprised that at 16K miles the suspension on one of the strut's had worn off, but then again Peugeot aren't know for their reliability, and a good excuse to upograde. Now saving for the next upgrades ~

Also today! Cosmetics - Sun strip + chameleonic windscreen tint & front light PPF tints for that meaner aesthetic.

Update! :D My suspension began to wear and needed replacing, so I had no choice but to obviously buy Billstein Coilovers =))) Lowered 20mm (didn't want more due to pot holes and certain parking places at large inclines here). [old standard Peugeot GTI suspension (LEFT) vs Billstein coilovers...

Thought it shouldn't do much damage but helps having a non amateur's opinion as I'm learning slowly and made my first big mistake. Thanks a bunch!

Hey! Usually the best thing for immediate BHP, is a remap :) Good BHP gains for the money spent, usually around 10-30% increase from factory depending on car. Then after that it's about modding it out to icnrease the capacity for BHP gains after further remaps =)

Hola Amigo o/ Hi

Oh wow nice! The B13's look cool don't think I've seen one here in the UK. General rule of thumb, remaps tend to add 10-30% BHP so a simple remap may do it (probably add near around 10% beign naturally aspirated). There's a pretty cool modded Sentra N16 here ;

Happy early Christmas :)

Heey! So I own a Peugeot 208 GTI & i've poured engine oil [5w30 off memory] into the coolant, realized my mistake a month or so later, and am getting it bled/washed out as we speak. Am wondering, in the technicalities......... 1) What has this done 2) What will this cause 3) What damage? My...

Britain is a difficult place to live with such aha, never driven an Abarth but for a small car with all that power it seems hella fuN! :D What's the first thing or two you plan to do to it, decided yet? :D

I'm the same as you :) Way more fun going a tad speedy on corners and country roads than fast in a stright line =) And also a Pug, 208 GTI. Best I think is tyres! Getting those Michelin sports or just better grip tyres period, lowering springs or suspension/coilovers (but super expensive, just...

Oh quality shots, found you, number 26? Have you ever considered sideskirts and a diffuser? see you've got at the front a nice looking one, from a sideways angle looks like some side ones and back may loot neat too :D

Great stuff :) good shot of your Civc too

Any nice photos from the day yet? :D Sounds grand!

To add to the list you'll need an intercooler/radiator kit with the piping and all, on top of the normal Turbo piping. Dump pipe with the blow off/diverter valve. And I think wastegate + more hopefully someone else to add. As well as the Turbo ofc, the intercoolers a pricy one ~

There's some pretty cool bodykits for those no? throw us a picture! :D

I've not done this, but changing the suspension, the springs, would create a bigger change to feeling the bumps no? Instead of lowering springs, higher ones and with more stability, over the usual lowering performance ones.
