After originally looking for a mk3 Ibiza Cupra to buy and mod for a few months and having no luck in finding a clean car to start with as soon as I saw Scott's Leon Cupra R for sale, that was it, decision made lol...

Most people will probably know the car, but here's the spec and a few pics (stolen from Scott :redface:)

225 BAM engine model
46k miles from new
1 owner
Ovni yellow
Full service history

Yellow Samco hoses inc cold side relocation kit for DV
Forge FMIC including black Samco hoses
Forge re-circ DV
N249 removed
De restricted charge pipe
DTM air scoop (fits behind grill)
Inlet manifold thermo spacer
Battery relocation (just to the left about an inch) to allow for larger air inlet pipe
CDA carbon intake on Nuespeed heat shield
De-restricted MAF sensor
4 Bar FPR
Samco TIP
Forge uprated turbo to charge pipe elbow
Cruise control kit (fitted by seat when new)


Engine Visual:-

Chrome inlet manifold
Chrome bottle lids

Interior:-

Full Recaro front AND rear seats
Auto Gauge boost gauge in stock looking ‘A’ pillar
Aluminium Seat Sport tax disk holder
Carbon and metal seat sport round gear shifter
Audi s3 illuminated air vent lights
Golf arm rest

Audio:-

Pioneer avic X1R sat nav with fold away screen
Double din dash conversion so sat nav doesn’t block air vents when open
Bluetooth for the avic
Competition component front speakers
Competition sub in custom mad sub box in boot so still suable boot space
Custom box for Amp
Custom floor for install so minimal boot space used


Exterior:-

Complete re-spray in Ovni yellow to match the un-faded door shuts
Aerial removed and smoothed over – moved to inside of windscreen
Fabia rear wiper conversion
Wheels (all 5 Inc. spare) powder coated in shadow chrome
Rear badges removed
Seat and aftermarket locking wheel nuts
Black wheel nut covers to match wheels
LED Sight lights
Xenon headlights
Aero wipers
De-locked drivers side handle (Inc. original lock and cover)












As you can see Scott has clearly loved the car and carried out tasteful mods whilst owning it, my plan is to do the same :D

Future plans..

Re-furb alloys - lacquer starting to peel
Re-furb calipers
Up grade fuel pump
Bigger injectors
Up grade coil packs
Forged rods
Re-map
Clutch as and when it slips??

Ok, so I've had the car now for about 4 weeks now.... I've had it on a set of trusted rollers (tuner I've used for years) and the car made 252bhp & 282lb-ft at 21 psi and is running dangerously lean.. Fitted new Sytec fuel pump whilst it was at tuners to see if the fuel pump was shitting itself, but still ran the same. Adjusted the revo map by sps control box, car ran 6 psi and ran 180bhp and fuelling was still the same, far to lean. So car is booked into badger5 for a custom map as it's holding boost fine, but simply isn't getting enough fuel. I have also ordered a badger v2.2 tip which will be fitted prior to map.

In the meantime the car has been to a local body shop to have the brembos and rear callipers painted onvi yellow to match the car and the wheels stripped and re-painted in grey as they weren't in the best of condition.. I've also had new ebc ultimax discs fitted front and rear with yellow stuff pads as I got them for an awesome price, car is due back from body shop, below is a few pics I got sent whilst it's there...
