Lovely motors mate

!! I'm not sure how easy it is to get the evo multiair turbo upto that power but it can't be much different to a t-jet mod wise, the good thing you have you won't have to upgrade your turbo

, do some research see how you get on

!

To be honest, if 165 isnt hard to reach (a tuning box) then a full exhaust system, turbo back style will get to roughly 172-175

Modify the intake with larger intercooler and panel filter. Upto roughly 180

Tom 91 · Feb 27, 2012

Yeah should be no problem then

! I uploaded a few videos of my exhaust on my thread, take a look see what you think??

TJ07 · Feb 28, 2012

Warning!! If you ordered the genuine Fiat mudflaps beware... as most folk (including myself) found them a b*tch to fit!
They look good once they’re on though

scoop987 · Feb 28, 2012

As per usual with standard fit items... Got a ticket from royal mail (My bulbs) and one from DHL... I wonder what it could be :devil:

Welcome :wave:

Nice choice! I also went from vauxhall to Fiat.
i had a Corsa SRI it too turned into a money pit as its first MOT commenced...
Good choice there, think they look great in red!!

scoop987 · Mar 3, 2012

Gaz, I've been on here for years??? Had 2 puntos prior to the astra...

Anyway, Got my mudflaps, needing fitted though and got my "tuning e stile" powerbox fitted

Got MTEC T20 superwhite DRL's and fitted.

I didnt realise how much a difference the box would make but by christ...........

Next on the list is a FMIC (Forge seems to be looking good) and clear rear foglight unit. Was considering an abarth badge grill but had a closer look and it wont fit

Custom exhaust will be priced later on and induction kit of some sort (K&N i57 I think @ £95) after the scottish italian car day.

Is there really anything else worth doing?

TJ07 · Mar 3, 2012

Box fitted

:devil:
I have just finished another little touch tonight.
I colour coded (in pearlescent white) the blue&me control button surrounds on the steering wheel… in my opinion well worth doing.

Would look nice in white as the ambient lighting, inside door handle and that silly white accent, but to be fair, I have too much going out for the next two weeks so nothing is being fitted until atleast april when I have some money spare again.

But the forge intercooler is the only one on the market thats a direct fit (£330), I've never fitted an intercooler yet but my mates got an astra coupe turbo thats going to phase 3.5 or something so got injectors, AFM, intercooler and the pipe work to play with.

Ive got them, fitting this weekend along with timing belt, service and brake pad change on a golf iv...

JockyEvo · Mar 7, 2012

sounds top drawer! i'd love to be able to do the same to my sporting!

scoop987 · Mar 8, 2012

What im doing to mine is actually basic, only difficult thing is fitting the exhaust when i get it...

scoop987 · Mar 12, 2012

Well, mudflaps fitted but now shes in the dealership getting plugged in... No idea but I think its a sensor for either turbo, boost or MAP since the car runs but no throttle

scoop987 · Mar 31, 2012

No new pics yet as she's dirtier than a tipper (Truck)

New plans though are as follows:

Garrett GT1446 if i can get a hold of one
Gloss black vinyl'd roof, not keep on matt
200 Cell sports cat
Titanium catback (If I can afford it, if not custom stainless catback)
Maybe a slight drop aswell (20-30mm)
CC'd crome thingy on front bumper
Box has been removed as thats what caused my ECU to fry, in process of getting money back for it
FMIC somewhere down the line aswell

Nice - long old Wish list there.
Did you fit the K&N induction kit in the end? Want to fit something but don't want any turbo chatter as a result. They are the only ones that seem to do a kit specifically for the Evo Turbo.
Cheers J

Doesn't matter what kit you use you'll hear turbo chatter, only way you wont is to stick to an ungraded panel filter.

scoop987 · Apr 1, 2012

Well, Vinyl'd roof, CC'd chome thingy and full exhaust will be done this year sometime but not sure when though.

Im thinking of just getting the K&N panel filter. Its £50 cheaper and does the same thing but without the noise. Just take the airbox intake pipe off the box and attach a pipe to it as where its located doesn't help the cars breathing at all.

scoop987 · Sep 1, 2012

Heres my new exhaust

not finished yet, need to find a 18MM thread boss for 2nd sensor on decat pipe and a emulator.

Custom built 2 1/4 inch (About 57mm) with center box removed. Standard Cat and flexi pipe. £400 for it so can't complain

Any comments welcome
