Cupra R doesn't feel too powerful

[Dougy]

Hey guys I don't know if its just me but my Cupra don't feel too quick

I have never had one before so have nothing to compare it to.

I have been out in one before but that was ages ago

3 months on and just wondering if is there is anyway of checking without spending tonnes of money

I know a simple solution would be to fit a boost gauage which I think I will do this weekend but anything else? Also what should they be putting out on the boost?

Cheers

tke it to a rolling road near you,log it if you have vag com and know how to use it if not get someone to log it for you to make sure your maff ect is healthy and your meeting req boost! are you running standard cupra R map? tbh there nothing to shout about standard but there ok i guess! there your options tho to see if its running right!

try resetting the ecu first....

It could be your MAF try unpluging it and see if feels any faster!

Or like you said put a boost gauge on it should be around 8-10psi i think

approximately 0.6 bar of boost (regular Cupra so not sure on the extra 24hp of the R)

Cars always seem slower when driving, compared to being a passenger.... iv found anyway...

I know it would feel faster as a passenger but still i can feel it build up but then when it gets there it feel poor if you know what I mean

I think I will get vag com on the case and see what that comes out with

I wil report back
