it should do best think is to try and see if the fr pipe can fit on the cupra without to much bending or make a two part hose but then that defeats the object of the hose. ive got a front mount and the angle is more like the cupra pipe work but without comparing its very hard to tell. the only picture i have of the cupra intake hose is yours and thats been cut so dont know the true shape of it compaired to mine!

forge sell the kits with 5 hoses in for about 100 so cant see it being near that tbh the tip they sell for other cars involves more work than this and is 100 quid

He gaz iv sent a Email to richard at forge yesterday and hes going to get me an Estimate price for the pipe so i let you know when it comes through.

Hopefully we wont need different pipes for the cupra and FR, if we do its going to mean that forge may need to make up a new tool which might cause a problem

they definatly have the tooling for the FR but if the cupra is different then forge may need to make a new tool. Il speak to richard a forge to see if he can find out if they are different
