IVe recently got my old Cupra back on the road after a long stint of insurance madness and alot of swearing.

So I have £500 to spend on mods, I already have Revo and a new set of wheels lined up so we wont include this in the £500.

Im thinkin of getting it up to stage 2 but can I get all the necessary gubbings for that kind of cash?? :confused:

Otherwise what else can I do with it?? :help:

The silver one was sold to make way for my house! But the black one has now risen from the ashes lol!

The black one has alloys and Revo yes.

Was it written off then? How much did they charge you to get it back?

Exhaust? TIP? Coilovers to name a few for under £500

Brembo's?

DV + Exhaust + Panel Filter?

Boost Gauge + Nomad Pillar Pod + DV + Panel Filter?

I'd go for suspension though.

No it wasnt written off just took ages to get the third party insurance company to fix the bloody thing and my insurance company didnt want anything to do with it as it was a 3 car sandwich and i was the filling!

Not alot of damage just alot of cash lol

if its for the car, then i'd go for a full exhaust system, either a blueflame or a scorpion cat back with a milltek DP (or put the extra in and get a full milltek)

otherwise blow the lot on something else like a laptop and vagcom!

You can go stage 2 if you buy 2nd hand parts and a Laugna FMIC... Personally i'd go for a zorst system now... and save up for the rest...

Id say either a FMIC or full exhaust system with sports cat. Get rid of those restrictive expensive parts first ;)
