300+bhp Skoda Yeti...

Very impressive, what sort of ££'s are we looking at roughly?
Don't do too much more to it , IMHO bossfox went too far with his Yeti with a totally different engine and lightweight panels, plastic windows etc it wasn't a Yeti any more.
Sad that the only 1.8 4x4 you can get now is the very top of the range elegance, can't imagine they're selling many of them.

Andy, you still got the G40?
Hey Ash! Still got the Polo, can't see me ever parting with that. Did a full rebuild from a bare shell a few years back. It's quicker than the Yeti, but far less tractable.Easternlight said:

This is a link to the APR K04 conversion: http://www.goapr.co.uk/products/turbo_trans_18_tsi...Don't do too much more to it , IMHO bossfox went too far with his Yeti with a totally different engine and lightweight panels, plastic windows etc it wasn't a Yeti any more.

So that's £2.5k for the bigger turbo and EMS calibration to match. In my case the car has intercooler, downpipe, mid-box, air filter and clutch to add to that bill. It'd be fair to say you'd have to really want a quick Yeti to make the investment!
I don't plan on doing much more to it, other than continuing to try to refine it. Pushing it much more will mean driveline upgrades for reliability. Considering its level of tune it's fairly well mannered, but the clutch is a bit heavy for the wife so she doesn't like driving it.
In the facelift Yeti you can't even buy this engine anymore, biggest petrol is a 1.4TSI - it's all about the dervs!
This is the one I see at Castle Combe. IIRC the reg no is Bossfox. It slays Evos and Scoobies etc.
Both look such awesome fun.
