Skoda Modifications

Re: Skoda Modifications

I installed a sub in my boot too... put it off for a long time until I convinced myself I could live without using the storage in behind the trim panel on the RHS in the boot:

Ahhhhgggggg! The stock boot lights! My eyes!
Do yourself a favour and get some led lights.
Nice sub install btw

The led boot lights from super skoda are pretty awesome..

Been thinking if doing the same with a sub.. Did you upgrade all the speakers? Or just an amp and the sub? I was thinking of just that but not sure how useful that alone would be..

Can't agree more RE: Superskoda LED's!!

Here's my sub/amp install. I use both of the storage cupboards, so they were out.
I'm going to (read: eventually) get a set of RCA sockets on a small metal board and mount that to the interior trim - just to look a little more professional, and a little friendlier to remove should I need the entire boot space.



Not bad for a total cost (at the end of installation) of $200!

Have bought the TDI RS a Provent200 (air/oil seperator) to fit up, a bit late considering that I have 75K on it now, but better late then never. Trying to work out where to fit it and have been toying with the idea of getting a APR intake which will free up some space and streamline the intake. ( check out Poyta's thread - http://www.vwwatercooled.com/forums/...t-58691-3.html
Now that the car is out of warranty I might even look at getting a ECU tune as well..........

2012 Scout booked in for audio upgrade later in the week.. Not doing myself hopefully they do a much cleaner job than I would and less stress..

Replacing front and rear speakers with Focal PS165s, and dynamating (is that a word?) doors..

Also putting Focal IBUS 2.1 Compact Sub (front speakers run through it too) in the boot in one of the side compartments..

Will post pics and 'review' on the weekend..

DP Chip (Calculated to be now 148kw, 430Nm - at wheels 129.2kw peak 4200rpm, torque spread is now 80%@1500rpm, 100% 1750-3150rpm - Dyno done prior to below mods)
Illegal tint to match rear privacy
Cold air intake to boost power a little more (not sure of impact)
Hi-flow air filter to help boost power a little more (not sure of impact)
nano diesel filter to make sure the fuel is clean

Where did you get the chip and CAI?
How much?
I see you're in Richmond, so I figure you can get these parts in Sydney?

What type of chip is it? One of those sensor reading altering parts?
How well does the car run now?

Incase you can't tell - I'm a little excited.

Ok here's one to make it go faster. - a decent number plate bracket and cover. From about $170 from Lakinplates.com.au. Really neat and solid.

Got my windows tinted on the windows.

Add another +1 to Robert @ Hunters Hill Tinting.

Did my Octavia and my sisters Mazda 2. Fantastic job, I wouldn't bother calling anyone else next time.

Today was our 13 month anniversary...
Today was also the day she hit 55,000km!!

So I bought her a new pair of shoes to celebrate.

[Tigger]

Wow! what a different look mate! It makes it look like it is sitting so much lower for some reason...
Well done!

How does she handle now?

No vibrations or alignment / tramlining issues?

How does the road noise sound?
