vRSAlex's Octavia vRS Estate - New Mods On
vRSAlex:
Little update. Finally got round to fitting my Defi boost gauge. Took me ages to work out where was best for the contoller, but it ended up in the armrest. Pain to get all the wires to it, but worth it in the end as I can use it while driving if needed. I have mounted the gauge on the dash for now until I can workout somewhere better. I usually manage to install gauges in a stealth location, but the octavia has got the better of me. Trouble is its a 60mm gauge so a no no in the air vent. I think I will buy an a pillar trim and make a housing on the trim.
Peak boost on the Revo 2+ is just under 1.8 bar.
I fitted an Audi S-Line gear knob a while back too:
My Blueflame came without any tailpipe as per my request as they only do a 6x4 oval. So I got my weld on and made my own:
If anyone is wondering about Blueflame at the moment, they have closed the business and are reopening soon as 'Tube Technologies' but keeing the Blueflame name too. Hopefully they will get their act together too! :evilgrin:

Can you not get a pod mount that fits behind the steering wheel and is a replacement for the trim?
Cupra R:
Alex.
Bit off topic so sorry for this.
But, do you know if Blueflame are still going to honour any warranties on systems they have already made?
I would of thought (hope) so, but just wanted to ask the question.

There's actually not a huge difference between the 2 engines. Crankshaft is the same. The conrods are actually the same thickness except the hole is bigger where it connects to the slightly lower compression pistons 19mm vs 21mm. I have a spare ko4 engine and i don't think it's worth the hassle of swapping it over, handy incase of emergency though :jumping:
