What do these weigh 1200?
how much for the car 😄
@@davecozzie1 about 1150kg or so.
@@bobbydazler3980 I doubt Rob would sell, it's his baby!
@@ryanp6138 bet it flies when it hooks up! 😂👌
Acceleration is a little bit higher than my SDI 47 kW 😂😂.
Good job.
Love hearing/seeing these PD engines man crazy the potential they have.
TriniRogue why? they dont make any noise at all 🤣🤣
@@dc3565 It s not about the noise, it s about the performance
I used to drive a 1.2 htp 12v, it made all the noise you could ever want, with none of the performance you would need
Don t get me wrong, it was pretty quick for an old stock 1.2 (3 cylinder engine)...but not worth modifying and not as fast as you would ve wanted it to be
So, if you want noise, get a new exhaust...if you want speed, work on the performance
@@Micro13bk what?
@@dc3565
"why? they dont make any noise at all" -you
my comment in a nutshell: "want loud noise, get exhaust...want vroom vroom, get upgrade"
@@Micro13bk what im saying is they barely make any noise apart from a sucking noise lmao
That's a tremendous amount of torque for a Fabia
The PD130s have insane torque from stock, mines a stock one with 310nm
Same for the pd115 @@KimiButNoDrink
I like the way GoPro wide angle makes it look like you’re going faster than you should be 😉😉😉
Nice build!
I love my Fabia VRS daily. Only upgraded the brakes, suspension and roll bars. If the engine shits I may treat it to a slightly bigger turbo and one of your heads. Don’t really want to open that can of worms though as my toy is a built G40.
Polo g40?
Where's the "Reyt then" beginning 😱
Sorry!
Had a few laps in yellow Fabia pd asz about 6 year back but was running under 300bhp and didn’t have hardly anything on it to cope with the power no LSD ,and just wanted to shred front boots ,I’m glad I’ve seen a proper tuned fabia vrs now ,just goes to show what can be achieved with the awesome 1.9PD 😊👍
Great to see some off the older stuff again , makes me want to finish my Corsa b with pd in and see what it will do once built
mg mechanic 👀
@@tuskpanther8062 hoping it shifts with it weighing under a ton
Great stuff! That's one quick diesel!
Great idea with the clutch and cruisecontrol map thingy
Well, that škoda is a pure beauty!!!
I had 1 of these with dark side bits running sensible map about 230 bhp. It was insane. Kept up to a45
Fuckoff mate no chance 😂😂
So your saying that you kept up with a car that had 200bhp more than you ? I want whatever your smoking ...
i have a A45, ready when you are
Lolololololololololololol.
@@joshstrom2791 hp is about top end, end of the rev range. The torque is acceleration and diesel torque is high. a45 loses drive train hp and once up and running a front or rear drive car running the same hp with be quicker.
So I suggest waking up a little and to not be so dismissive. 230 hp and 350lbs is not to be sniffed at in a light fr wheel drive car. Plus what a45 does he mean? Because it would keep up with an early one easy. A new one not so easy especially.
Off the line it has no chance, rolling it has plenty.
All you dismissing a 230 hp fabia VRS with 350lbs ft torque are being fools.
Miss my 2007 Fabia VRS SE. Sold it years ago and recently found it that it was written off a few weeks ago 😔
RIP
rest in peace sweet fabia 😔
Rip fabia
Always wanted one of these, the wheels suit it too 👍👍
Now that's what I like to see bit of fabia action . I've just got a hold of one on a 53 100000 miles on the clock completely untouched really cant wait to get the build started I'm wanting around 250bhp
Gr8 cars mate i got mine 97k on clock, now on 150k, ran double power than standard for 50k and still running faultless!! Gtb1756 headbolts etc, 223hp & 428nm
Give us a shout, 230 is fairly cheap!
@@ryanp6138 aye ur right sir!! Gr8 cars, 2-3k on them 100+hp over stock and still as reliable and good on the MPG
amazing!!!!!!
Love from Scotland 🏴
Best channel on TH-cam 👍🏻
Cheers
Bet that’s a fun little machine when the roads are dry!
Oh yes.....bet it's a little fucker in the wet tho !! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Great fun in the wet. TC off and high speed under steer
@@JG-tk7ov 🤦🏽♂️
You guys are completely insane, in a good way.. 😂
I swear when he does the second pull he just rinsed some poor lads st 😂
Gregor lad 😂😭 the poor boys just had his blowoff valve put on and his pop and bang map 😂
Mason Mackenzie 😂😂
Yes it's up for grabs
These vrs are amazing, especially when they're modded! But, this car drinks diesel and coolant like a thirsty dog when you keep it in boost all the way through
Seems like a slight upgrade on the 60hp Fabia they give me when mines in for a service
Ikr. Recently sold my 64hp 1.2 shitter and got a vRS, got to say they're as smooth as the 1.2s but fuckin hell they're like shit off a shovel
@@xJackkHD Don t hate on the 1.2 64hp, it is a great cheap beginner car...plenty of speed for that price if you just got your licence
@@Micro13bk in no way am I hating on it. It was a fun little first car if I'm honest. The engine was smooth if not a bit rattly at idle, the gearbox was one of the nicest I've ever felt. That's the reason I got a mk1 vrs, because I loved the 1.2
@@xJackkHD oh, sorry about that then, just thought you were cause you said "shitter"
loved the gearbox, could ve changed gears at the snap of a finger
went to a MK2 1.4 TDi Sport, I really miss it sometimes, there was something pleasant about it despite the internal noise and lack of power or comfort
guess I just got a bit sentimental haha
@@Micro13bk no worries! Yeah, the lack of power compared to the noise it made is something I don't think I'll miss though hahaha. I'll always remember having to thrash the knackers out of it though to overtake someone, all you never forget your first car
I want one. I'm buying one. These old fabias are so cool
That is one cool car awesome sleeper material 👍🏻👍🏻that will without doubt upset a lot of cars
Boys, we have ourselves a rippa
I wish when you do the drivability videos you'd put a camera on the back so we can see how clean or Smokey it is for the different tunes
the haters would hate on a car like this but will bear in mind for our CR builds!
I have a question. The 2260 gets full boost 36PSI at 2800 RPM, the 2872 gets full boost 40PSI at 3600 RPM, so I'm wondering dose the 2872 preform like the 2260 and get around 36PSI at around 2800 RPM or is it a bit laggyer and by how much
@@OGBK99 its hard to tell much difference between them on the road as the 28 builds boost pretty quickly low down but takes longer to reach its peak. Maybe we should graph it rather than the table format its in now!
Great idea
you can see the smoke through the rear window, its not good,
Officer: iS iT sToCK
Me: Just an air filter
I had that conversation in this very car when the coppers tugged me with a cloud of smoke behind!
My polo sport line has the same motor in South Africa.. Best cars ever!!! Done 120000km and I still can't let go. Stock standard with stage 1 file.. :D
120k isn’t a lot. I had a mk3 golf gti I spent wedge on to 362 000 klm.
Had one, apparently one of the rarest. A red 07. Red was the least they made in 07. So I was told. Spent a fortune on it and 4 months after I sold it, it was up for sale as spares or repair. Sad. Fully poly bushed, coilovers, front and rear brake upgrade and just shy of 200bhp. Was a great wee car. Miss it.
I have a 2004 B5 passat tdi sport 6 speed 130bhp standard, got stage 1 few months ago bringing it upto 189bhp.. love these guys to bring mine upto this sort BHP 😳
Happy dyno at 189😂? 175max
thats a dream car right there
Brutal... Great work
They should definitely chop them 2 roundabarts off end of that road and name it grimey pod way better use for it
Look at the rear mirror 3:54, "it's not really too smokey"
Could you do a video on your view of PD engines, and what you prefer to work with and why like a review / history of the engines that you have worked with other the time and weather you prefer 1.9 or 2.0 personally I think the 1.9 is the best one
He's spoken before on the issue, but they prefer the 2.0 TDI. Think it was in one of the engine build videos for the Golf MK 5.5
@@BkSMedia i think the new mk7 GTD engines are awful they couldn't get one to make 300hp it was a real struggle, a old PD b laughing at those figures
vw has pumped a ton of money in r&d for direct injection diesel they had a mk1 golf direct inector prototype . it was ferdinand piech we have to thank for the pd. Redhead zilinderkopf technick germany called the pd tdi vag the last bullet proof diesel .
watching the mpg go down brings tears to my eye's lol
Absalute wizards this company wish I had the money when I had my ibiza fr only company that should tune diesle darkside all the way 100%
Was that lit at 80 on the intro WTF.
Awesome sleeper 😎
Y'all are pioneering the TDI scene. Kerma don't have shit on y'all. Great work!
Pulls like a train
"No smoke no poke"
NICE NICE NICE!
I bought my ASZ Ibiza new. It drank coolant from day one. At 180 000 km the head was skimmed. The problem stayed the same.
This is awesome 👏🏼! Question I'm new to the to fabia vRS gang, previous car I built a c20let F28 nova very different 😂 your clocks look different to mine are they standard? They look more "model" than mine 🤔. Love the switchable maps!
These are just stock early ones!
Brilliant 👍🏻
I had a fabia vrs a couple of years ago, it was on on 06 plate. I don't know if it had been played with but it was rapid
I got told it had the BLT engine and they had more power standard than the ASZ.
I bet you guys would know that if it's true lol
Dan23 7 bacon lettuce and tomato ?😹😹
TuSK Panther Yeah mate couldn't believe it when I opened the bonnet 😂
How much does that cost then to take a standard fabia vrs diesel to 320 bhp ??
Bit late but on DD site all the engine upgrades will set you back around 10k. Reyt price for a 400bhp fabia
'on a private road' wink wink nudge nudge
Awesome.
Out of interest, How do you get these through an MOT when they smoke like that.
Friendly tester
This passes the opacity test
Very nice , what turbo is on there ? Just ordered 100% injectors from you guys
GTD2872 :)
Hi Darkside, always on point and brilliant R&D, i have a PD160 Cupra 6L, i want to order yalls SeatSport Darkside Intercooler as mine is leaking and will want to do a OEM kinda swop, i wanted to know if yall tested differences with the SeatSport Cooler and the Darkside SeatSport Cooler also when installing it into a Cupra 6L , is there any need to fabrication or is it direct swop without any cutting etc ?
Stock SS leak a lot, cooling is a lot better, it was years ago when we tested!
@@DarksideDevelopments regard fitting ... straight fit without problems with radiator and reinforcement bar ?
I cringed when I seen it's only got 312's on the front, but love the switchable maps that's ace.
It has 4 pots now, they didn't fit under the wheels at the time
Hello mate love the channel and all the good work you do..I’m building a TTRS on my channel..do you only work on diesel cars
Diesel only, good luck with the build!
Darkside Developments thanks mate appreciate it.
Mpg -- 😂😂😂 love it
Is this car from Southampton way? I’m 99% sure this thing spanked me in my 3.0tdi v6 Audi A5 a couple of months back.
He has been involved in chip tuning for a few years, I have a car with such a 1.9 Tdi ASZ engine, but lumber for about 200HP. I am curious how the engine map looks at such powers just like in the movie. Does anyone have a batch of edc15p with such power?
If i bought you guys a vrs how much would it cost me to get you guys to do that for me ?
£10k
Hi, great your fabia !! have you modified your shock absorbers? if so, what did you choose? Thank you for your answer and again bravo for this crazy fabia !!
Hi, this car runs KW Variant 3 Fully Adjustable Coilovers (Y)
more or lees how much money you need to do it at the 1.9 tai ASZ?, my one it's in stage 1 naw with 175 hp turbo pressure 1,5 bar, and all in stock. 315.000 km naw and is vw mk4.
looking at buying a used Octavia TDI with some intent on tuning, however I have concerns about emissions (passing MOT etc.) so I want to keep the stock down-pipe (and dpf if i go for a newer car) so I am looking at just upgrading the turbo (and injectors, if it would help) is this a realistic expectation, if so what would be best out of a 1.9-PD105, 2.0-PD140 2.0-CR140 or the CR150 from the mk7 platform? any advice would be welcome
Goes like shit off a shovel. Crazy.
This thing is 90hp stock, btw
I got a a6 1.9 tdi 130hp and I'm getting ideas watching these videos 😂
1.9TDI on the platform A6 c5 is the most basic engine on that platform which for me isnt worth it but modding a 2.5tdi yeah that is worth
@@DD-ow4or yes but as a daily work car it's good for 200HP whilst maintaining great MPG :)
@@nathanielc6286 reasonable but still opting for 2.5TDI is better or switch to A4 1.9TDi has better compatibility
What’s the what the US version of the fabia?
There is none
@@DarksideDevelopments damn :( almost looks like a Volkswagen/Honda cross.
Best Turbo recommended for an upgrade to my Pd130/200+ have straight through, intercooler, cone filter, egr deleted, bigger brakes on front, stage 2 but turbo is defo going so rather go for a better turbo that isnt being pushed to its limits
Drop us an email with the reg / VIN and we can go over some options
Thanks
when i see this i become thinking about to build my 6y5 something like this....
Excluding the price of the car how much cost wise am I looking for this set up ?
Please email us for a quote - sales@darksidedevelopments.co.uk
These little cars seem so versitile
Is 155k too high a mileage on these to tune it to 230bhp reliably? Runs like new but dunno how itll behave if it gets 2 bar pushed through it😂
155k is barely broken in.
We have tuned 250k cars past that!
Got my vrs standard 97k, within 2 months tuned with larger turbo, darkside decat &darkside frontmount etc & currently on 223 & 428nm and been like that until now 147k!! Reliable as ever running 1.7bar!! Smoke free tune & I service every 4k miles too
@@toyotaturbo504 Hi mate! I want to do the same around 250 bhp and 450 nm and no black smoke at all if possible for a stock seat leon fr 1.9 pd 150 ,could you give more info please? Olso a price guide will pe helpfull,cheers!
i found a Skoda Fabia VRS 1,9 TDI with 171.000 km asking 1800 euros, should i go for it?
Do it
@@DarksideDevelopments thanks for the advice, i think is a great deal,i know the this engine is extremely robust and can be tuned pretty easily
They rev well when you have had them eh 😂
I miss mine. If I didn't get a 60 day speeding ban last year for racing an unmarked copper in it @ 120mph on the M6 one evening then I might have kept it.
They wouldn't have caught you in this one... ;)
Don't let him sit in your car next time :-) of course he catches you if he is in it at ANY speed :-))
Which fmic is used? I assume the biggest one.... What intake temps are being shown ?
Here's the full spec - www.darksidedevelopments.co.uk/skoda-fabia-vrs-1-9-8v-asz-3/
I saw that but there are three different sizes of that fmic. I am asking which size you fit so I can do that to my car too. I also have a fabia vrs.
We fitted the largest, 230mm one
What do think of 4 motion ? and is it worth getting a 4 motion model to help put the power down or isit a waste of money ? What are the pros and cons that you know of
They never did a 4-Motion Fabia VRS but this could be done with parts from other models. Its a lot of work, adds weight and can take the fun out of a FWD but it will help put the power down for sure.
Insane performance ! I guess the price too...?
From what I have seen about, there is no such thing as cheap tuning...
i got the asz in my bora sport also
I run 1 of your FMIC on my mk4 golf, for the life of me i can't stop the silicone connectors blowing out oil residue which i assume is from the cam cover vented into the intake. Fix?
Catch can, maybe?
@@halvdan7978 had contemplated one, odd connectors on VW
Two clamps or use a ratchet for the clamps I'd you where using a screw driver before
@@ikebuttle360 Got T-Bolt clamps on, although they're not the most uniform in shape when tightened. May swap them out for legit Jubilee clamps.
@@dinxsy8069 I had the same issue I swaped the t bolt clamps supplied with there fmic kit for high torque jubilee clamps and never had an issue since.
My cuzen got one like yours he remapd it know its 642hp swear
Hey guys, what dogbone mounts are used on builds like these on polo/fabia/ibiza with 400-500 NM of torque, but teeth friendly at idle? Powerflex yellow?
EDIT: i see on most of the projects you used vibratech mounts but as far as i've read on forums those rattle your brains out eh?
If you fit all Vibra mounts its better but they are still not as good as stock for NVH as expected.
Power without control is pointless are fly wheel figures !
I had fun once, it was awful.. 👆
Why do we go on fly hp when it should be taken from the wheels??
A debate as old as time
Whp changes if you change the tyres so how can you compare 2 different cars?
But wheel hp is the true hp your car is putting on the road right??
@@lukecowell7516 not really. Roads are not perfectly round rollers
Are y'all experimenting with propane? I ran it on my BEW for awhile. It worked great.
Whats a realistic price ‘all in’ for a reliable 325 hp fabia vrs (2005).
The whole spec.
10k
@@DarksideDevelopments you would have to love that skoda ;)
Maybe too much love, haha
@@DarksideDevelopments I have spent over 10k on my TTS though. But 5k was on the inside....it owes me plenty and it had money spent when I bought it lol.
@@DarksideDevelopments and .... Ive actually got a fabia VRS run around (2005) that I will be booking in and spending a few bags on. Ive been emailing the info and prices etc - egr delete, pd head bolts, arb, console bushes, strut brace, hard pipe kit, fmic, map and whatever else is needed. Turbo is fine Ive done the 4th gear turbo test. Its a little knocky underneath though. Bushins probably. Hopefully its all good.
Ive heard good things about DS but Im down south so makes it harder for me.
What issues are problematic on a fabia VRS apart from, console bushes, leaky back doors (sorted), steering rack (done), earth problems, need addressing. Its 116k at the minute.
Thanks
It's rediculous really. Definately not slor.
I want it.
Great work :) How mutch complet uprade?
Be nice to see more car and see leff gave and talking
What’s the most millage anyone has seen On a pd engine?
I'm sure they have done 1,000,000. We have tuned with 300k+
@@DarksideDevelopments that’s impressive I’m collecting one tomorrow with 169k on the clock always wanted the fabia vrs I had the 105bhp fabia and had that mapped to around 130 and that was a lot of fun for what is what so I’m sure I will have plenty of smiles on my face 😀 thank you for your reply keep up the good work and content 👊🏻
Minimax is great but the Revo will make all the difference 😉
How much do you charge for weekend hire?
It's not for hire! Haha
I have a 14 octavia vrs and I'm thinking of getting it mapped.. is it risky getting them mapped? Can it harm the car? Or be at risk of blowing if I brought it too 220 230bhp?
They do 210-220 fairly easily without any trouble!
Needs a prop shaft
How much is it to have that spec engine. Got a vrs from new and just hit 113k totally standard. But always been told to get a stage 1 recap. Getting itchy fingers👍👍
It's about £11,000 not including shipping
Plz do a project like this on strada/triton/l200
Why rev it so hard. Is it safe to rev the old 1.9tdi past 5500rpm ? What about using the mid range torque ? After 4000rpm the power and torque are falling.
Did you look at the graph? Peak power after 5000rpm
@@DarksideDevelopments yeah i checked it on the graph. After 4200rpm the torque is failing. I can see hp is good at higher revs. I used to find out on track in the lower gears using the mid range torque was slightly better for acceleration. But horsepower is better for top speed in the high gears so i would rev it out in 4th 5th and 6th gears for faster sectiond. But slightly short shift 1st to 3rd gears and ride the torque / boost curve.
One day if you have some spare track time do back to back acceleration runs 0 to 80mph 1st to 3rd gears, mid range vs high revs with the same car. You will be pleasantly surprised.
On a big track like silverstone gp its worth 3 or 4 tenths. And in a long race slightly less fuel consumption.
Not sure what car you had but this is not the case with our big turbo cars. Torque has to drop, it has to be the same as hp at 5250rpm, look it up!
@@DarksideDevelopments I raced F308 Dallara in the MSV F3 Cup a few years ago. We had 208 to 212 hp and 155 to 160 lbs of torque from a restricted atmo 2.0 litre depending on fuel map. Bear in mind with me sat in the car but no fuel it only weighed 552kg. We had data logging telemetry. 1st to 4th gear if we rode the torque curve and short shifted acceleration was slightly faster. But at higher speed 4th 5th or 6th gear corners using high revs was faster to overcome wind resistance and push the car through the air. HP is more for top speed Torque is for acceleration and going uphill.
On your fabias torque curves 3200 to 4400 rpm is where the peak torque is. I can see hp climbs all the way past 5000rpm.
If you have basic telemetry you can test what I discovered on track years ago. Torque is beter for acceleration and HP is for top speed. Somewhere in the middle of the speed range is a transition of when mid range torque gets beaten by higher revs.
My roadcar is an old bmw E90 330d Msport 245hp with a full emmission delete and remap. I also took it to Birds BMW for a suspension and diff upgrade. This transforms the car. I think i have over 300hp and over 400lbs of torque.
Steering feel is great. Traditional bmw hydraulic set up with loads of feedback. The youngsters brought up with modern electric steering dont know what they are missing out on. I tested an f30 and G20 verson. No comparison. The steering feel of the road surface is removed so they feel like japanese shoping trolleys from honda or toyota.
What’s the 0-62 in this cars? It’s got to be sub 5?
If you can launch it yes!
@@DarksideDevelopments they don’t seem to like first gear do they....and they happily spin in 2/3/ and 4. You need a good launch and the best tyres for sure.
HOLY SHIT!!!!!!! :O
Is this wheel spinning? Are they not 4WD Haldex system?
Yes, they did not make a 4WD Fabia VRS
What could be done to a Polo saloon 1.9tdi 90bhp to make it faster but without spending too much money? Thanks
PD150 Turbo, .240 nozzles and a tune!
@@DarksideDevelopments thanks. I'll look into it 👍😁
