looking good man :)

I'm going looking at a Cupra R on Saturday :D
cheers bud best of luck with the search, they are good cars :)
Looks good I really like the Cupra R with side skirts and the splitter goes really well together.
Thanks bud, i think it finishes the car off nicely :)
Hope those jacking covers are held on properly.

Yep Eck, my last leon had the skirts afew years ago well aware of the problems lol

I love those alloys in that kind of colour ;). Be proud to stand out m8, instead of gloss black etc etc.

WeeG, I'm very impressed with the work you've done to your Bumblebee - I've read the entire thread.. pretty epic stuff!

I do have some questions for you though..

1) I may have missed this in your thread, but do you have a dump valve / spacer fitted? If not, why not?

2) What is an "RS4 Valve" - what does it do and how is it better? Is it a direct replacement or does it need software as well?

3) When you had your full stainless system fitted, did you get any emissions fault / engine light come on due to the oxygen / flow sensors? I know the Revo map takes care of any of these anyway, but I was thinking of getting a full system for my Cupra but can't afford the Revo map as well - wondering if I can get away with just the exhaust for now as I wouldn't want my dash lit up ;)

Cheers pal! Look forward to seeing other stuff you're going to do.... You must surely be thinking about the GT3071R upgrade??

Hi bud thanks very much for the interest :)

1) I don't have a dump valve/forge spacer. These items are renowned too cause boost issues.

2) the rs4 fuel pressure valve is an upgrade to the standard valve. Stage 2+ requests 130 mbar of fuel pressure. The standard valve can't sustain this where as the RS4 valve can surpass it :)

3) i got the 200 cell sports cat. I drove20 miles with it fitted to get stage 2+. With the 200 cell you can get away with it not being mapped out and avoid CEL's. decat and 100 cell your not so lucky. As for the turbo upgrade bud. The car is fwd, but never say never ;)
