    limp mode - charge pressure control positive deviation

    Took the cupra out this afternoon for the first time in weeks after fitting a miltek sports cat and downpipe , and fmic. At first when I took the car out it went well and hit around 15 psi. But when it did this I could hear a strange squealing/screaming noise ? Then the car would boost only...

    Limp Mode Charge Pressure Exceeded with Logs

    Is this possible? I have a 2 port MBC in parallel with my N75 to stop boost spikes. Occasionally my boost is limiting to 6psi; but after a good stint of full throttle will shoot back up to normal levels ~24psi peak. I am thinking either my MBC is sticking keeping the wastegate open; or i'm going...

    Charge pipe popped off!

    Hi peeps I got my cambelt and waterpump changed today - no problems. But the mechanic did say that a clip holding the pipe on leaving the turbo was about knackered, and looked like it could pop off soon. Lo and behold, on the way home - it did. At least i think it was that, there was a big...

  12. Polishing charge pipe

    Hi guys, i'm looking to polish the charge pipe on my LCR, but i'm not that confident at taking it off and not being able to get it back on. If i take the pipe off, do i have to destroy any clips and replace them or can I re-use them. I've searched but haven't found anything relevant to...

  14. Safe to charge a Cupra K1 battery? Odd problem

    Hey guys, Had my Cupra K1 since July and my battery died on me. I was away for 3 days, came back and absolutely no life in it whatsoever, no dashboard lights, no response at all. Anyhow, I was reading in the manual that the battery should be charged under controlled conditions by a garage...

    hose size Charge pipe to IC pipework

    anyone that can quickly tell me what size the hose is coming off the chargepipe (front side of car) running to the plastic tubing going to intercooler? I believe its 45 degree bend? When I search I keep finding the hose on the backside of the chargepipe running to turbo... cheers

    Charge pipe to turbo rubber pipe

    When doing the KO3s conversion you will find your rubber pipe on top of the turbo will pop off under load, very annoying. The reason for this is the standard rubber pipe is for the KO3 turbo, and is too big for the KO3S turbo. Forge charge ALOT for such a small piece of pipe. However...

    LCR Turbo charge pipe

    I'm going to be polishing the charge pipe soon and i think i read somewhere that there are baffles in the turbo end of the pipe that can be removed, If this is right what benefits will doing this give and is it worth the hassle. Thanks :D

From then on the turbo wasn't spooling up at all and on my gauge wasnt even getting to 0 it was just like...
