1.5 turbo tuning
So I'm picking a new 1.5turbo estate up next week. Coming from a 300bhp ST that i worked on my self just wanna go a few basic bits.
Looking to map it and that will be from superchips. Also looking for an air filter but cant seem to find one loads for the 1.6 so can I use one of the on the 1.5?
Also reading appears I cant put a sports cat on as will be almost impossible due to the design. Same for the intercooler some one mentioned its watercooled?

I'd be looking at mountune upgrades mate. If it's new you'll be able to keep your warranty with mountune. I have a mate at Cosworth Mahle and they are doing upgrades too.

I have the same issue.. seems like everywhere i have looked there isn't anything for the 1.5t. spoke to a few companies and they aren't looking into developing anything as of yet
Only part I can find that is compatible, other than a Map, at the moment is a Air Filter/Box from K&N (http://www.knfilters.co.uk/search/ap...II&engine=1.5L)
