tdi fmic

[g__humm]

i have a gt tdi which has a remap i am curently looking for a frount mout and have heard the ibiza one fits.

now my question is does it fir with out any cutting??

[pip_polo]

get the seat sport one (from the pd160 cupra) or the forge one.

neither will need crash bar to be cut but depends how you mount it.

they both fit anyway.

and welcome

What he said

With a FMIC, striaght through pipe from the CAT onwards (£30ish?) and a stage 2 remap, you should be pushing ~190 BHP.

Welcome aboard.

then when your turbo blows get a pd150 from the golf and hybrid it. 220bhp.
then water methanol and noz to 260bhp

thanks for the advice and for the welcome will get pics up soon

found this site on my internet travels and they say that it ok for my car and no cutting anyone had this before or know if it gd or not and yes i know where it is lol

[pip_polo]

correct me if i'm wrong people but that's the hard way of doing it?
you want a double pass intercooler so both the 'in' and 'out' pipes are on the left as you look at it.
but that obviously fits so it can easily be done.

like this:
FORGE:

SEAT SPORT:

another of a 'home made' one:


forgot to mention the double pass just makes it easier to get the pipes back to where they need to and will cost less as alot less piping needed.

i want one too i have the pd 100 engine tho remappd. do i jus need the seat ibiza cupra PD160 stock intercooler? or an aftermarket one that fits that. and what about the pipes. or what about a forge polo gti one? i have a 9n3 by da way

[K.I.T.T.]

Just avoid the FMICs of PD150 Golfs/Boras...not sure if they fit the Polo, but build quality is a bit pesky with plastic mountings snapping etc. One for the 9n3 GTi would probably fit, but you might have issues with the tubing. Anyway, the stock SMIC is good enough for a reliable 170ish BHP. On a PD100 I think better gains would be seen by fitting a PD130 turbo first and getting it mapped (Should see at least 160 BHP)...then you can think about PD130 injectors + FMIC. Just how I'd do it...nothing wrong with swapping out a FMIC first though, just bang/buck wise I reckon a turbo would be better.

i was looking at this one - http://www.polo9n.info/page.php?p=anlei ... upra%20TDI
its in german but gives a list of the parts etc and pictures look fairly easy to follow. there are figures floating about that for every 4 degress centigrade the air is cooled you gain 1 bhp. so the cooler the air into the engine the better!

[g__humm]

ok then new question now what is better? the forge style or the seat or the cade sport??

[pip_polo]

for a pd130 (especially if going hybrid/200bhp+) the seat sport one. the one that came standard on the pd160 ibiza cupra, it's bigger and also fits better.

people will guess what i've done soon

[zedzo]

yeah i was planning on doing the PD130 turbo and Injectors. a PD130 turbo from a VRS or a IBIZA CUPRA should fit straight on. correct?

[pip_polo]

go for a pd150 from the golf. then your ok for 200bhp.. get it hybrid if you can afford too and then you can get silly figures.

don't bother with a pd160 as they're rare and cost too much and basically same as pd150.
and you'll get bored of a pd130
