Sup bros?

Came here for sharing and learning 'bout my new ride. It's my first vag, but not my first modded car.

I have a bit more than a month of owning a brand new Cupra 265 and it has already it's first mods. Which I will list and also my "actual" plans for it.

And here it is:

***Couldn't put my pics 'cause of the restrictions for new members.

Mods:

- Custom 3" downpipe
- APR stg 2+ ecu flash
- 034 motorsports billet aluminum dog bone mount insert
- injen short ram intake

(Actual numbers on the dyno are 368 whps/390 wtq)

I went for APR stg 2+ so that I can customize my map whenever I put some other mods. Nice timing that I went for ecu flash and after a week they released and update!

Actual map:


***Couldn't put my pics 'cause of the restrictions for new members.


Upcoming mods and plans:

Styling:
- cupra R Mk1 lip (already in shipping)
When the lip arrives in one week (hope):
- glossy black paint for all 3 front grills (as in audi RS models)
- cupra 280/290 colorscheme painted wheels/rims
- I'm also thinking in vinil wrapping my car for giving it more personality I'm thinking in this three colors. An opinion would be useful:

Nardo grey:
Matte flat grey (frozen grey):
Olive green:

Upcoming:
- Audi S3 19" wheels


***Couldn't put my pics 'cause of the restrictions for new members.


Upcoming go mods(actual plan in order):

- BFI (black forest industries) stg 2 motor mounts
- 3" custom catback
- forge twintercooler (so that I don't have to trim my front bumper or grills)
- Porsche front brakes swap

I'm willing to have with this plan an around 400 420 whps daily drive with just bolt ons or ecu flashing, without the need of any cooling (methanol or no2) or electronic additional system.



Nice to meet you and thanks in advance for your welcome.

Greetings from sunny southeast Mexico!

I think they were after you, Seastormer my old son.
Sounds like something your Edinburgh mucker Sir Walter Scott would have turned into a wonderful story about an orphan who inherited a fortune, but their wicked uncle cheated them out of it while they were in a terrible boarding school.
All looked bleak until a sweet-hearted Cupra driver sped in and saved them from the clutches of the horrible SUV-driving mum.....

Oh - I've given the plot away.

no. I don't believe anything about your story or circumstances, having seen too many similar emails from your part of the world.
So sod off to somebody else's forum.
