standard tune up is K&N air filter, bigger exhaust, and a different carb.
the exhaust i had on my red one was an ashleys exhaust. you use the standard manlifold and its a different down pipe, back box (which stretches across the rear panel and mounts to the engine) and then a tail pipe . i can get pics if you want...i believe your skud has a non-standard exhaust anyway doesnt it?
i'm not totally clued up on carbs, but keeping with the single carb i believe a common option is the webber DGAV...i had one of these but never fitted it...i've just sold it though.
i'm not all that much help really.
after that though the next mod is cam, head, all the usual stuff. you can get about 100bhp reliably, and it is possible to get 130bhp, but thats works spec and it'll cost a hell of a lot to get it that high.

Isn't there a conversion you can do from Estelle parts or something, to do with the manifold that makes a big difference? I'm going to have to go through my mags and find out what I mean |

get joined up to s3.invisionfree.com/skoda_owners_club_GB, there's quite often tuning stuff available on there, was an SK6 cam for £35 a few days ago. Tuning wise, it all depends on your limitations, my red/white Rapid is running approx 125bhp, has a 0-60 time of around 7 secs, and goes well off the clock on a private test track. I'm running a reworked head, with an up n over manifold, 45 DCOE weber, different cam (not sure on spec) and a homemade exhaust system with a 4" backbox. Gotta get it repaired and back on the road |

:)Is this gonna be a car for everyday use? If you lower it too far and use it lots you'll find that you'll get through driveshafts and also the front anti-roll bar mounting points can be damaged.

A lot of the member are very helpful on there, a bit like they are on here, but only Skoda related. I hope you have loads of fun with the little Estelle, it used to be a mate of mine that owned it and i have to say it is a very sound and reliable car, look after it and it will look after you. My old Estelle was lowered just about as far as it would go, looked amazing and handled great but was a little impracticalthat low for every day use, i've still got the springs somewhere. Here's a pic of your Estelle with a few S.K.O.D.A.S members cars  And this was my lowered Estelle   I did have mine lower, the front wheels were tucked up in the arches, but it was un-driveable like that, looked amazing though. Personally i'd leave the car looking as it is, just lower it a bit and possibly fit a later engine from a 1.3 MPi Felicia (easy swap). |
