Upgrade to a 150 fmic?

I suggested that but he doesn't want to shell out the extra cash.
How much cash has he got,it doesn't have to be new :wink:

right as Steve says my internet has been down due to a gas explosion in my village Friday night - basically the beginning of a really sh!te weekend  :cry: :cry:

Thanks everyone for the links

To clarify a few things:
1) 115 is different I believe due to the size of the map sensor
2) Forge FMIC - i'm saying nothing about my view on Forge products  :lipsrsealed: and i don't have a week to potch about getting an Allard one to fit.  Also to get a 150 TDI FMIC to fit requires the radiator to be fitted so thats a no-go too
3) 2nd hand will do me fine until I give it some more thought
4) With a dodgy intercooler she still pumps out 177bhp and 311lbs ft torque - good enough to embarass a few people on the way home  :evil:

Thanks for all the links and support lads  :smiley:

EDIT - picking up one later this week and going to get it tested before putting it on the car.  Will also buy that one on Ebay and get that tested lol

Fingers crossed  :smiley:

right

Picking up an intercooler off a mate tomorrow night - need to have it tested as it was taken off his Bora about 18 months ago by VW

Just won the one on Ebay which is down the road from me for under £30 so will make arrangements to pick that up at the weekend

Bring back the power!!  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
