Did i read somewhere that the leon intake pipe is much bigger than the standard one and that tht would fit straight on? Much cheaper i suppose too.

you can get the mk4 golf one cheaper, and it fits perfectly. Spose it could be the same as the 1.8T leon Cupra. MAF would be the same sise.

Jabbasport are the masters at forced induction tuning, so you really cant go wrong, ive been doing some searches and found that they seme to get better and more reliable results also.

iv heard a few peeps having stalling issues with the mk4 tip, may need to swap your oil breather and dv round if your fitting it i think but it fits perfect tho, iv had the forge one and it fits perfect with no problems regarding stalling (it is literally a handful only though with stalling issues regarding the mk4 tip)

the mk4 golf/leon does not fit perfectly!
infact its nowhere near perfect imo! it requires cutting to fit at all, and fits in a totally different position. the forge 'ibiza' tip fits brilliant though, great fit even if you go k03s!

and i cant see how you'd get a new (aftermarket) one cheaper anyway!

I ment from a scrapped leon just seen it in a post before on here thats all, and was wondering was it worth £10-15 of my money on it or not to bother.

Its fiddly.


The mk4 one does not fit perfectly. trust me, i have one. 10mm needs to be trimmed off the end and the dv connection is too close to the MAF causing to get confused when letting off the throttle.


Dont bother getting anything else apart from the Forge one specific for our cars.

just been talking about it in the south wales chat thread..

its pretty straight forward but its pretty awkward because of the lack of space.

if you have access to a ramp then it shouldnt be too hard at all really

its fiddley but again, if you disconnect everything from on top of the engine then raise the car on ramps and undo the bolt on the metal tip it will come off but will then need to be wiggled out of the engine bay
