i dont know what suspension set up you have warren, but i know yours mark will be more 'solid' than mine with your dog bone etc. so engine/transmission vibration i expect will be felt more through the chassis. could it not be that i have the same problem (if it is a problem) but dont/cant feel it due to my softer/oem set up.
if i remember correctly the idle speeds were between 720-760 once warm.


I don't think it's the dogbone, as it gives very little vibration when idle. Only under pull away load as the engine takes the strain. Yer your right 720-760 you have a better memory than me Chris :D

THe car run fines otherwise, pulls just as hard as ever, but it just gets this occasional flutter when idle. It's not that bad it's stalling, but you do think that's not quite normal.

Doubtful SEAT would do much about it, if it was the exhaust valves. To be brutally honest if it came to cracking open the engine, I'd ask Awesome to fix it and stick a set of stronger rods and pistons in it while it was in bits. Rather than take it to a dealer to either argue over a claim or pay them through the nose to do the work.

We'll see what develops anyway, all good fun. :)

I ordered 2 , 1 for me and 1 for blade , we have both had ours now , it all depended how quick you paid , the first 30 people who paid first were sent out first.
Although reading the thread looks like some people who paid first are still missing theirs :confused:

Warren the can is tiny mate , you will have loads of room to fit it.
Although after speaking to Andy at ITG he says the Leon has much more room behind the lights than on S3 , so our options might be better for mounting, and i have a picture of the production ITG filter if anyone wants to see it?.

Option 1: In front of carbon canister

Option 2: Where OEM intake used to be (Very unlikely mounting point due to fan location)

Neither ideal due to pipework, but I have a buyer if I get frustrated trying!

New NGK BKR7EIX plugs gone in the Cupra today, and it was much smoother driving home from Awesome, tick over seemed happier too. Will aim to do some logs soon.

Might be tempted by the ITG kit, once it's released in its final production form.

Still no PCV kit, but that can go on too once it arrives.
