Hello,
I've recently bought a 2010 DS3 THP155 Model Dsport. I was attracted to this motors when I had a courtesy Car (Diesel) I just loved the way a drove and I felt in tune with the road
Prior to purchasing the DS3 I owned a Subaru WRX and went balls out over the top with that. I purchased a full JDM V8 Engine with the Big Port heads, Tougher Trans,Bigger Turbo... In
the end I moved up to a 2.5 Block with weisco Pistons with the big ports heads, FMIC and Methanol Injection. The Turbo I installed was one of the largest Bolt ons of that time, It was a FB Red by forced performance. This was managed with a Element Hydra standalone ECU. The Car was making approx 450 WHP but in the end it lost the daily Drivability
So in the end she had to go but I never lost that lust for forced induction
The DS3 DSport I purchased last August for £3.500 and the dude assured me the Car was mechanically sound. Since then I've replaced the Water Pump, The Oil Feel Pipe to the Turbo what a PIA that was, however using a custom braided flex line helped. Not long after that I needed 2 coil-packs and 4 new spark-plugs. I has also suspected the thermostat was broke. The Roadside assistance confirmed this when he cleared the codes for the misfiring. So to be honest the bloke screwed me over good and proper
All said and done I love this car and the more work I put in the more I get attached. So becoming a member to this forum will give me confidence in learning and hopefully meeting some cool people with similar interests
Thanks DS3Dood
