That is bloody cool do you have a link to where you purchased it from?

I bought mine off eBay during a deal, but Alex at AKS sells them!

Nice car, I need the large mfd in mine, especially when using the sat nav and all the other info on it is a bonus

Finally got rid of the standard cupra seats, here are the replacements. A pair of Corbeau RRB sport line. They hold you a lot more than the standard seats do (obviously), also have a lot more lower lumbar support which has made the drive more comfortable.

Nice,they look like they take up a lot less space.

Yeah there is a lot more room all round, passengers in the back get more leg room. Although I need to see if I can find some extended seat rails as could do with going back an extra inch or two on adjustment.

Added some audi r8 ignition coils and the red conduit on the weekend, was getting high timing pull so ordered these to fix and put some colour into the engine bay.

Love the seats Alex seen them when you posted on Facebook.They go really well with the car,did you get the airbag resistor sorted buddy?

Have the R8 coils in mine haven't got the conduit yet but it does make it look better.

Cheers Craig it's amazing what difference they have made to the comfort when driving. Managed to get them sorted, made up some resistors the plug on using repair connectors from TPS.

I thought I may as well get some colour as looks a bit dull, wish I'd got the hoses in red instead of black now.

How's yours coming along?

I do like the stock seats but after long journeys I feel like I've been beaten up lol so perhaps a set of them bad boys one will be on order.

It's going well mate cheers she finally goes 2+ soon I've got everything I need and more to help aid the flow/performance so will be good to see how she responds.

Have the same DV return as yours but the red one and it does look good,my stock one had started to sag so it needed changing really.For the money I think they are very good quality and didn't see the point in buying the Forge hose.

If you see me about FB my surname is Leech just so you can put a face to a name kind of thing.

 

[AlexK1]

That's exactly why I got rid of mine, not enough support on them. Well if you decide to do the seats I can make and send you some resistors of give you the part numbers and details to do then yourself .

Stage 2+ is where the fun begins! It will be interesting to see what your setup makes as it's got all the best parts for flow on there.

Out of interest what wheels are you running as looking to change mine, think I've got a porous wheel as keeps going flat or the paint is causing it.

Will keep an eye out on there

Top man cheer Alex much appreciated

To be fair she goes well at stage1 but like you say 2+ is the real fun.Fingers crossed all will be good! She responded well to stage1 and produced 306.6/343 completely stock less a panel filter so with all the hardware fitted and a map to complement it should produce a wee animal.

I'm still on stock wheels mate as I do like them but if I ever upgrade one set I'd look at is the Oz super leggera's

Once she's back from mapping I'll add the results to the Tfsi group and my ride thread buddy.

 

[AlexK1]

It's definately enough power to put a smile on your face everything you go out.

I'm still undecided yet, swaying towards 3sdm 0.01, I've seen a few people running those OZ's they look smart!

Got a few bits to tidy up on the gf's leon yet, so it's deciding who's gets done first haha

I like that your DV return goes under the AC pipework i might have to do that with my standard pipe if thats actually possible.

It's the MTC pipes, they do them in three colours

Small update, just a couple of changes.

Fitted the r tech full pcv delete, no pictures of it fitted yet but it's been on a week and is running a lot smoother.

Removed and sprayed the centre console trims satin black, they have come out ok but will probably get our bodyshop to do them properly, was more to see if I wanted satin or gloss black.

And finally, fitted some new cob led bulbs that required additional resistors to stop them turning off after 4 seconds. Much brighter than the smd leds I had in before, so will see how long these last!

Nice Update Alex want to do the dash a different colour but can't make my mind up on either satin or gloss black

Defo gloss black

Where did you get your steering wheel done buddy looks spot on

I'm referring to the outside edge and not the gloss black insert cheers

Just purchased a nice red Leon Cupra K1 to upgrade from my stage 2 golf mk4. Bought the car last weekend from up in Cambridge so had a nice drive back to Poole in it.







The guy I bought it off works in a seat main dealer Bodyshop so got treated to a full body mop before he sold it. Here's a few pictures of it so far, just added a Neuspeed p-Flo to it today.



Updated spec list :



Revo Stage 2+

THS intercooler

Revo intake

Loba HPFP

RS4 valve

Deatschwerks DW65V LPFP upgrade

Rev G diverter valve

AKS tuning throttle plate for WMI

Devils own WMI inline filter

Devils own WMI solenoid valve

Creation Motorsport runner flap delete

Revision "R" pcv valve

3 inch decat

Revo boost tap

Sachs organic clutch

Loba single mass flywheel

Corbeau RRB sportline bucket seats

Wow, nice car! I can't wait to modify mine to a similar extent. How loud is it with a decat out of interest? Guessing it won't pass emissions now?
