im getting a little bored with the cupra.

its about on its limit for power, i need some new mods that are noticeable and will excite me again

mods i have

p-torque stage 2 map
milltek dp and 200 cell cat
samco t.i.p
ths db mount
whiteline 23mm rear arb adjustable
porsche 911 4 pots
6000k hids
inovite cts 18s
janspeed shocks and springs lowered 30mm


whats the next stage other than big turbo guys.

help me out here, losing interest in the cupra a little:)



i.e high flow manny, engine mounts, cat back milltek any of these worth it in your opinions, and anything else i missed.

money burning hole a little, just not a bt hole

even so hey.... 550.

thinking of n249 bypass, uprating the n75 to a j or whatever it is, uprated manifold to high flow....

thoughts?

But your going to do all this work which helps boost, so the turbo will probably get hotter and so will the engine then a fmic will be needed ;)

N249 wont really get you excited mate, takes but a few minutes.

I'm currently exciting myself by tidying up my engine bay with N249 bypass and full removal, new boost pipes and engine cleaning. Mostly occurring tomorrow. :D

If you've only got the down pipe and cat then the rest of the system would be good, Mine made a big difference and I still got the standerd cat and down pipe.

You know me by now James.
S3 strutt brace, S3 lower strutt brace uprated front ARB. Stiffen up the rear to its hardest setting and get the 4 wheel alignment done.
What about the R32 steering rack, hubs and ARB swap out, not fancy that?

already have s3 braces, may put arb onto stiffest setting....

what benefit will the r32 rack hubs and arb provide and is it an easy swap....

is the n75j worth it or will it mess with my stage 2 map?

also gonna do the n249 bypass?

The steering rack is quicker and the swing arms/hubs allow you to have these at a better angle therefore vastly improving the handling with a dropped car
