MK3 Leon Cupra, what we know

[Al]

Completely different.

Cupra R is CDLA and the older design. This is using the new design as per the new S3.

 

[jc_boc]

So we should be able to see some healthy power increases with mods..........

 

[AndrewJB]

Thats the new lump in the S3

 

[kenboon]

Sounds very promising

What's been updated on the new engine then? Will it be running a different Turbo from the k04?

 

[Al]

Whats the engine code in the new S3?

 

[AndrewJB]

CJXC i think

 

[kenboon]

Details of new s3 engine from this page: http://cars.irishtimes.com/new-cars/7196140/audi-s3-2-0-tfsi/

1,984 cc 2.0 litres in-line 4 engine with 82.5 mm bore, 92.8 mm stroke, 9.8 compression ratio, double overhead cam, variable valve timing/camshaft and four valves per cylinder Engine code: CJXC

CJXC i think

 

[AndrewJB]

So its CJXC and Cupra is going to be CJXE, Basically sounds like a de-tuned version of the engine (Bit like CDL and CDLA)

Guessing they will map the same or similar

Golf R set to have 300bhp

[Al]

Is anyone able to breakdown the CJX* differences?

CJXE = 265bhp
CJXB = 280bhp
CJXD = 290bhp
CJXC = 300bhp
CJXA = ???bhp

And approaching £38k using today's exchange rate.

Overpriced much?!

BMW would clean up if they facelifted the M135i and added X Drive to it!

 

[kenboon]

I think you are spot on there Al! They are introducing X Drive to LHD M135i's only. I'm starting to warm towards the looks of the 1 series to be honest. A facelift as you suggest, might make it more appealing.

Do you have the original source link for the document. The current manual on the French site doesn't have this detail, it stops at FR as you'd expect.

Interesting if this is true, and not a photoshop
