Welcome to our new sponsor Lecatona, a brand dedicated to enhancing performance for VAG group sports cars, including SEAT, Audi, Volkswagen and Škoda. Specializing in High Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) upgrades.
And me lol have to start forming a que, shame I dont live closer bud
Haha yeh i know Lee, going to get crammed in the ickle ibiza!
Wanted to get some gauges in the car for aaaages now but was never sure what type of pod holder to go for. Nomad double is a nice option but abit expensive at £72 for abit of plastic. Also wanted to keep the car looking fairly standard so gauges on show didt apeal to me all that much. So went to my local stealers in Wimbledon and picked up a cupra r gauge holder for the brilliant price of £8!!
Got some Autogauge boost and oil temperature gauges ready to fit in the near future, can wait.
Few pics
Mated up in their new home in the holder
Thanks for looking

Yeh your one of the lucky few 75 people that got an R ! As far as plugs go, i think i may stick with the NGK BKR7E's unless my fitter of Bill tells me i need to change them.

that huge thing lol. millo can you tell me why they cut top of turbo pipe off and reweld it. curious as ill be going down same road lol
No idea to be honest mate, think someone asked that in my thread a while back, think, and i could be wrong, but could be to get to the internals to rip them put and replace them with ko4 goodies, just a guess though
Here you go
Because CR use a hybrid K03/K04 compressor housing - i.e. the housing of a K04 with a K03 elbow welded on to maintain OE fitment
From an old thread:
"I would plan to use the shaft, CHRA, and comp wheel from the Audi RS6 turbo, this gives us the largest combination of wheels in the K04 range, we then machine out your Turbine housing to make the shaft fit, we take the comp cover from a larger turbo eg Audi TT then weld the elbow from yours on to it so the actuator fits and to keep the turbo pipework fitting as original"

i will do eventually k03s is not enough i dont think. im starting from scratch again not good lol
]Yup no need to buy the guage holder and expensive brakes all there already with H&R cup suspension, what ever else is different. Well i shall kep a keen eye on the thread to see if you change your plugs then.
Good progress to be making.
Did your autogauge come with the right adapter for the sump plug? Mine were all too big when I did an oil change the other day
