theres a good variety of cars going to this as well, so its not just the usual repeated same car same figures jobbie either.  

quite a few tuned mk1 vRS 1.8T coming, tuned Fab vRS, quite a few mk2 octavias with various remaps and stages of tune.

think ian there is only 2 k04 cars going at the moment.

should be a good day, hoping to make it

Just because mine made 20bhp more then yours at the same stage of tune  :P.

My prediction 295bhp. If it drives great then i dont wanna stress the car too much more.
If i go with new software, i will then need Brakes to stop it, intake to improve pickup, fuel pump so it doesnt starve to death, and an Insurance that does charge £25 each time i add something!!!!.

Too much ££££.

My money is now aiming for more Cosmetic mods next month :wink:

Phil and I are probably going to meet up at Sainsbury's J7/M27 (or is it still A27 there?). It's not far from there to JKM - Half-an-hour max IIRC.

Anyone else want to join us if it's on your way?

I think it will be just us Robin, as hedge typically likes to squash wildlife on the A32 to portsmouth. Im sure others that are attending are coming in from sussex direction.

Going to jkm tommorow at 4pm to have Downpipe installed on phylis :pomppomp:

On jkms rollers, they are notoriously accurate mean :wink:

Put it this way, if i hit 300, ill be happy as a sand boy, but my prediction is 295bhp, so on Surreys RR setup, would be 3??.
They run in 4th at jkm and not 3rd like Surrey did,

See you 8am ish then. Sainsburys have a cafe so from 7.45 ill be there for Black pudding :laugh:

Well, yet another enjoyable day. Managed to see a nice improvement to Phylis's performance. Horsepower up to 285bhp with peak torque at 305lb ft at 3700rpm.
Great to see everyone, DomT, Hedge, RedRobin, Chris (Thor), and a few other familiar faces.

Got a comparison graph for Torque only from my previous run with just the cat back illistrated by the Red line, and the Blueline for the Downpipe and cat installed.

Post by: Phil Mcavity on February 20, 2010, 06:15:11 pm
At the present time, im very happy with the way the cars going ben.Against Hedges car today i was only around 10bhp down to his stage 2 Bluefin and even ahead on torque(but thats another story).
The issue that jim from jkm had with my car was he struggled to get heat into the tyres as mine was suffering with tyre slipping as for some reason, my vredesteins take a while to get heat into them so it wasnt gripping the rollers as good as it could do.
Now if i go to stage 2, not only will i suffer with huge traction issues, it would then spoil the fact the car wont get the power down the the tarmac, and be pointless unless i get some stickier Rubber on spend stacks on doing other road handling mods which i dont want to do to change the GTi's characteristics.
As Chris found out today driving my car on the specially reserved runway, a full exhaust and stage 1 map, is plenty fast enough.Driveablitly i feel will be lost if i do more on current factory suspention,ride height and most importantly Brakes!!.

Im no where near needing to change my tyres to deal with coping with the extra grunt.The vreddesteins have been a revelation compared to the Dunlops fitted previous.The current traction i get is just enough to get me down the Pod in decent time. :wink:
Title: Re: Briskoda RR day @ JKM - Sat 20th Feb
Post by: Sunglasses Ron on February 20, 2010, 06:22:33 pm
I understand what you are saying mate, but loading on the Stage 2 file is hardly going to be a huge amount different with regards to traction.  :driver:I can understand if we were talking about the HPFP and Stage 2+, but if you already have the hardware then it seems for the extra £50 (or whatever BF is) you may as well (IMO of course). But if you're happy, then that's fair enough.
But if the promises you have made in the past regarding going to the next step are anything to go by, stage 2 won't be far away..  :signLOL:

Post by: Phil Mcavity on February 20, 2010, 06:30:40 pm
The other Point Ben thats making me think twice about straining the car nearer its Build limits. After speaking to several people, im being very cautious about putting more Torque via my gearbox especially.

For the sake of a few extra horsepower, its not worth it mate imo.

.
Only thing on my "must list" is the reverse camera modification :happy2:

....Indeed I am! Very happy. I was only expecting about 255 max. It was a good dyno day with cold crisp air to help. It's the whole package though: power, suspension, diff, brakes, all add up to great taut and tactile driveability. Also 14.07 at Santa Pod in the capable hands of JonnyC. I think my next mod will be an intercooler just to better manage things and then stop modding - I don't need any more out of my car than I'm already getting.

Although from what you describe I reckon you still need a better quality tyre  :drinking:


....An interesting comment about the Vredesteins. They have received excellent reviews. As I also run asymmetric tyres (Goodyear) and using a TyreSure monitor, yes they do take time to warm up but I don't know how their warmup compares with other tyres. My car sat for several hours parked before going on the rollers and grip wasn't an issue and I'm down to 4mm tread.

Difference in rubbers?

Or does MrMacavity need some further mods to get his power down more directly?  :evilgrin: :evilgrin: :evilgrin: :evilgrin:

how did you fare at JKM then.

lets be fair even with the intake off, itaint going to be slow, so it doesnt matter a thing if your not after peak power.  I now regret getting my cat back, i prefered it when mine wasnt so loud with just the 3"DP.  
  i think if i wasnt selloing up i would have reverted back to stock or maybe got an extra silencer fitted in you never now really until you try these things

oh sorry, there were 2 yellow mk2 octys there. Didnt see him, but 266 bhp was the highest skoda.So less then that figure

Erm unless a car snuck on the rollers i didn't see the Highest Skoda was mine at 263bhp  :P :P :P

Chris Ellis then got 261bhp which was the Yellow one.

Muckipup got iirc 245ishbhp

and the rest followed on behind.

There was only yours and Hedge's Golf's i think which got Higher. But Numbers are for Pub talk  :smiley: :smiley:

I think i am going to just give up chasing what the problem is now. I know it's got way more power than what it produces on the rollers and Chris Ellis had a drive and said it felt exactly like Steve Makers Stage 2+ car which had iirc 285bhp and 340lb/ft.

Plus i get comparable in gear times to other Stage 2+ cars.

K04 is going on next which should give me around 320bhp & 300lb/ft BUT the torque will be across a wider band. Or knowing my luck i will get 230bhp and 220lb/ft  :grin: :grin: :grin:

I'm with you on this one Hedge. As much as I like the sound of the open cone Intakes like EVOMS, to live with everyday I think it would get on my tits with the amount of mileage I normally do. If you are wanting a intake, but not the loud noise, the Dbilas intake is a great compromise, as my mate has found with his S3.

It's not on my mates S3  :confused:. Sure you can notice a difference compared to the stock intake, but there is certainly no Darth Vader noise and massive waste gate chatter..

I love that sound!!

I tend to try and do it deliberately just to hear it :evilgrin: ...and scare old people :evilgrin:

I was wondering if a carbonio could be modded to house the filter on an intake? The bsh filter for example looks to sit where the carbonio sits, I'd have no issues chopping the back of it to house the filter and still get the oem air supply :drool: :drool:

Thoughts, could it be done  :jumping:

No!  The Carbonio doesn't have enough volume inside to swallow up the sizeable filters that come with the EVOM's ITG etc. :sad1:
