Went to TDI-North today and got the following fitted:
Hondata Reflash ECU (includes ecu) £645.00inc vat [supplied by TDI-north]
Toda Cat Back Exhaust £752 inc vat
Toda Manifold £740.25 inc vat
Also got a power run but forgot to do the before part doh!
Below are the results and it pulls like a train.
When you turn the engine over there is a nice deep burble from the exhaust and a very small popping noise. On part throttle the noise is a little deeper than standard then when you put your foot down it has a nice deep tone but not droany like some systems. Below vtec there is nice lugging power then as soon as vtec kicks in at 5000 rpm all hell breaks loose and the Toda starts to roar, at 6000rpm there is another kick then at 7000rpm you have your fingers crossed that Mr Plod hasn't spotted you. I thought the standard setup was great but sometimes felt that waiting for 6000 rpm was that little to long or having to change down too many cogs, the extra power low down and the vtec point dropping to 5000rpm feels great without you having to always thrash the nuts off it. The 5000rpm changeover is great on the motorway to, as I found that I was out of the vtec zone most of the time in 6th so is probably a better solution for economy.
This was with a stock airbox which would mean that with something like a GruppeM would probably give quite a few more horses and a bit more torque.
I highly recommend the setup and I imagine Hondata will allow a discounted upgrade to the Kpro when it's finally released in a similar way when there was a delay with the EP3 kpro. Plus the bonus is that you get a whole ecu unit with the reflash so you can keep your standard one for a rainy day if you ever want to go back to standard.
Thanks as always to Paul and the guys at TDi-North, Steve and Lewis for doing a great job and providing such great service.
Anyone interested in this setup should give Paul a shout Tel: 0800 0196055 or email: [email protected]
