Gojinder's Cupra got approx 390bhp when he switched from Revo to GIAC. The print out was in the Dyno thread on here.

Thats the only print out i have seen from your rollers mind

Oh sorry I thought you meant  Revo not  Giac  :happy2:
TBH It's that long since I tuned Gojinders I can't remember the numbers it made but I can look them up quite easily
(but freaky actually ive not heard from him for ages but he's in soon for running issues ??)
I don't think it ever made 390hp, but I could be wrong had lots of sleeps and a big crash since then
The GIAC extreme + cars always made around 377's on octane booster with a race file
Dam Strong at the bottom end though
I'll check tomoz


Yeah i got a graph at home i think it was about 390BHP Steve, and made about 330BHP with my settings and then made 350bhp with the revo stage 2+ run when Hurdy had a little play with my settings that day. car does go well with the GIAC extreme+file  :driver:

and you will never guess what, it was a the little pipe on the evoms DV that had popped of so now back to full boost  :driver:  :jumpmove: but still need to pop in to sort a few other issues out, prob see you saturday  :happy2:

as someone who is about to go K04 on my 2.0 TSI, would this be an alternative?

Personally on the 2.0 TSi I'm not sure I'd go for the Loba LO4XX even if it did fit okay. They don't seem as strong once tuned. Shaun (Geordie) went from a 2.0TSi to a 2.0TFSi as he wasn't getting a reliable high output from the TSi. IIRC he went through turbo's?

oh the engine can take it just fine, he was having a problem with the turbo suffering from Oil starvation to the tubo on the track, something to do with the sump and oil not getting around properly on sharp tuning IIRC.  Its fitment and cost im wondering about in comparision to say the APR K04 kit.

The TSI engine is nearly as strong as BWJ, CDL etc. It can handle nearly as much power so the loba should be a viable option. Just dont go near a track with it  :scared:

The APR K04 upgrade is expensive. Its much cheaper to get a K04 from Loba and an AWE DV relocate kit . . .  .sorted!!

Ha might go to Pod on the 11th. Yeah clutch is holding up in road use but the pedal is starting to feel very "soft" would be dead with a few launches for sure. Wanna give it a wirl on a track with corners this year :driver:

Running 12's is sooo last year :grin:
