Hey Guys

[MarkH.1984]

Hey guys, hope you're all well. I posted up in the 'Introduction section' of the forum but i didn't get much of a response so i thought i'd make my presence known and say hi again I recently got a mk3 Ibiza Cupra and have searched, and looked at the sticky thread regarding induction kits. I'm totally new to the Seat scene and am just looking for peoples opinions on what they think is the best induction kit for the money. I know that an open cone filter isn't recommended. I was looking at the dynatwist from Badger5, what are peoples opinions on this kit, and will i get the marmite 'love it or hate it' DV sound from this kit.
Here's my old car...

And here's my Cupra, apologies as this is the previous owners pic, as the weathers been cack and i haven't had the chance to clean it yet

Any advice would be much appreciated. Just one more question... what offset are the wheels and are RH cups available in the Cupra offset? Any pictures of Cupras with them would be much appreciated. Thanks for reading the essay guys

I have dynatwist on mine, DV sound is ok but dont expect anything loud. A good kit but expensive.


There are many (induction kits) out there, good ones seem to be Dynatwist, BMC & Jabbasport

 

[MarkH.1984]

Cheers mate, the price isn't a great issue (as it's a new years treat lol) however, do you think that it's worth paying that little extra for the jabbasport, or is there not much difference between the two build quality etc.

Dont bother wasting your money. Open cone Jetex filter.


Tried, standard, BMC, Dynatwist so far but the jetex has been the best so far.

Do you have any pictures of this in the engine bay, and what sort of price, where can i get one etc. Sorry for my amaturish ways mate, as i say i'm totally new to the Seat scene and haven't done much research yet

hi mate and welcome,

nice pug, i mate az one and we keep arguing whos is better but mine has a stage one re-mapp so i just kill him untill his gets cambed next month, so i think a trip to awesome gti is due for a stage 2 lol!!!

love the new car is it totally standard?

i am goin to jabbasport in the next couple of weeks for one of them cause the are suppost to be pretty good, they cost £230 but fitting is free

i am going with a mate who has a ibiza cupra so we will get a bit of discount
if you have a change of heart and want one then i can arrange to go together to try and get a bit more discount lol!!!

let me no want you think?

 

[Dan Cupra R]

Is the car standard at the mo then?

Im not sure if induction kits make a huge difference to the way the car is except the sound, I got a dynatwist as it only cost a tenner for me

 

[MarkH.1984]

Hiya mate, thanks for the reply. As far as i know the Cupra has had a stage one Re-map. It also has a pillar mounted boost gauge and apart from that it's standard. Seems to have a boost problem though, only boosts to 5. I was informed about this before i got the car. It apparently needs a new air flow sensor (according to previous owner). If i disconnect the battery and re-connect it, it boosts to about 10-12 does this sound about right to anyone i'm sorry if this thread is going all over the place

Yep sounds about right, will be your Mass Air Flow sensor thats playing up, Mine did that & it cost £80 from SEAT on exchange as they will want your old one. Get it booked in to sort that out & you should notice a differnce.

Good to see you have a boost gauge, a very worthwhile investment & is on my shopping list

Where did you buy the car from? Seems familiar, maybe an x- SCN member?

 

[MarkH.1984]

Yeah i did a bit of looking up and he was a previous member he was banned, or so it said in his next to his avatar. He's now a member on another site that i'm also on. I swapped my peugeot for the cupra.

 

[PhilW]

I'd expect it to be free fitting for 230 quid.

All it is is a Jetex cone filter with an Alu heat shield.


I got a Dynatwist filter for sale, 60 quid delivered.

Yeah I remember lol, funny sht that. Here, use your money to get a new MAF (Air flow sensor) will change your performance more than an induction kit will trust me

Problem solved mark, Buy this off phil, & get your MAF changed & you still have money left over.

Everybody wins!

 

[MarkH.1984]
