Where is that under tray from dude? Went up a kerb earlier and subframe took an absolute battering!

It's OEM 1J0698930 suits almost all MK4 platform cars. Damn expensive but so perfect. Need only Rivnuts and light modifications to plastic side guards. Note that steel skid plate drops ground clearence 15mm or so.



And here's the Leons max height. It's adjusted as high as it could be.

Done some logging with VCDS and notice that car is hitting only 2140mBar of boost. Just over 1.1bar. Any how MAF readings are still quite nice best one was 178,1g/s (pulls were between 175-177g/s).

Ou and I did one 0-100km/h test with VCDS, start wasn't good but still 6.8s on uphill. (0-60mph time was 6.4s)



edit: I think I'm quite near of maxing out K03s, running with stg1.5 custom map, Pipercross panelfilter and SeatSport IC. Rest is oem at the moment. Let's see what happens when I get 3" DP and cat.

Which tires I should choose?? Good rolling resistance and wet grip, but have to manage track day stress also :)

ContiSportContact 5 225/45R17 91V
Michelin 225/45R17 PILOT SPORT 3 91Y
BFGoodrich 225/45R17 G-GRIP 91W

Got quite good offers of tires above

Contis are too soft walled in our tracks, BF is just like soap on wet, so get the pilot sport 3.

Contis roll resistance is good but I was afreid that it's too soft. Thanks PS3 is my choice then, even roll resistance is bigger. E85 makes big difference then, that's awesome result. How well car runs over 5500rpm?

And one teaser of the new brakes. Tested what rims I can use with those

Hard decisions, should I sell the car and buy Diesel or should I build this car more. Which means that had to rebuild engine (Rods and Wiseco pistons), Cylinder head porting, full exaust, ~520cc KMS injectors, and GT28R. Possible also clutch kit from Sach Racing.

It's one of my favorite tracks called Ahvenisto circuit here in Finland. Biggest problem of that track is that there ain't safety zones, so you have to be quite careful.
