Hi guys, hope everyone is well and enjoying the new year so far! SO! I have just bought my Seat Ibiza Cupra TDi (PD 160)....i have no words to describe this car...seriously is a working piece of great engineering. I managed to pick it up for a great price, it's a 2004 registered with 52k on the clock with a full Seat service history. I have great plans for the car over the next coming months, so with the help of you guys i'm sure i wont find it hard to get it to the stage i want. Thought it would be nice to introduce myself to the family :) thanks for reading!!

Welcome! I used to have the TDI Cupra..they are great cars.

What is the TDI mod you have? If it's just one of those resistor in a box things you plug in then you will get alot of other people also saying how bad they are for your car, and you are won't see near 200bhp from one! A remap is the only way :)

Hi and welcome! Definatley go for a remap rather than a chip mod thingy. I have a revo on mine and Green Cotton air filter and I'm laughing!

Keep us posted with the mods

most tuning boxes are a cheap resistor that makes the car think it was more cold air, as a result more fuel is added, in the real world it means the car over fuels all the time. not good. save and have a remap
