This is my other project

It's a 2005 05 Fabia VRS in silver (can't mind it's exact name haha)

Bought it in August 2009 and since then it's changed quite alot. It's roughly around 190bhp 315lb ft torque but need to get it on the rollers soon

Current mods

BMC CDA
Angel Tuning custom remap
Allard EGR Delete Pipe
De Cat Straight through exhaust system
Cupra Console Bushes
Boost Guage
Coil Overs
LCR Splitter
Crank Case vented to atmosphere
Tinted Windows
Carbon wrapped B Pillars

So from this




To this

Does the pipe from the crankcase just go down the engine bay then? And dribble onto the floor/undertray?

I've routed the pipe down behind my brake pipes in the engine bay and down to just on top of and past my arb bush holder and it dribbles onto the ground. Doesn't touch the bush at all it's just a hand bit for it to pass over and get support from

Mattk you an angel tunining customer aswell?

It's supposed to be getting rolling roaded soon but not sure when yet.

Tints I had done as I have two kids and my one year old nephew is in the car alot too so it's better for them and keeps the car cool

Suspension I love being that low, any higher it'd look silly. It had plain plates on it but I got bored of them

It is indeed my private reg mate, names Paul M Ford so PM04 ORD

I want spacers for the rear wheels but they aren't cheap lol even second hand

The car can go lower if i removed the helper springs and rear adjuster cups but it'd be un useaale that low as entering my estate theirs speedbumps

You can get spacers for about £50-60 quid from ebay, proper hubcentric bolt on jobbies

Tbh I dunno where I'm going with it next performance wise. Turbos just go over my head tbh, was thinking pd150 turbo but I'm not sure. Shall seek advice from Paul at Angel and see what he suggests when I have money

For a hybrid turbo you will need a FMIC, hard pipe boost pipe kit, the turbo and custom mapping so you are looking at about 2k or so, but its worth it having driven a hybrid Ibiza

I have a FMIC to go on from a Focus ST and have it arranged with my exhaust guy to do my boost piping, replacing all the plastic stuff with stainless and silicone piping anyways

Custom mapping isn't an issue either as Paul at Angel will do it for a good deal

At the moment i'm just focusing more on aesthetics and getting the car sorted as it needs new dials and the bodywork tidied up as it's not been polished since i got it 10 months ago! lol

How much is your exhaust guy charging?

Spitfire performance do a hardpipe kit for the Ibiza, but I think its also been used on a fabia, well made piece of kit!

Not actually discussed pricing yet as it needs the bumper modified aswell so it's not gonna b cheap. Need to decide whether it's worth fitting or whether I'd be better going for one specific to the car

If I go specific I need to go open mouth and both me and my fiancée don't like that look which is why I like the focus ST as it sits nicely behind the lower grille part
