My K04 hybrid powered MK2 Cupra Sport track slag (it's now left the building)

[Ibiza 130 tdi]

I wanna hear this beast!

 

[tris]

Best news I have heard today
So will you be visting people alot now to get the miles on her?

 

[roly]

i bet i can imagine your smile now buddy! good work

I was like a kid at christmas mate, just glad to have it running again (it's only been off the road just over a month but that was enough)

Good to hear its running again, did it start first time? Notice much difference yet?

Once i'd put some charge in the battery it fired up fine, doesn't feel any different to drive yet but i'm sure it will once it gets opened up properly

I wanna hear this beast!

I'm waiting to see how it hears full chat, prob no different but i love the noise it makes on spool up

No vids or even pics of it going back together, got to the point where i wasn't stopping just wanted to hear it running, that first start is scarey and exciting all at once

well done ben nice one so up goes to boost on the turbo then more ppppooooowwwwweeeeeerrrrrrrr

Won't be getting the map tweeked untill i can get a high flow mani for the k04, once that and the downpipe are sorted a trip to see Bill will be on the cards

Just sticking mine back in with a K04 on it now...

Ive got the K04 downpipe from QPENG, looks a really nice downpipe, 2.5'' TIG welded etc, worth a peep if your thinking of upgrading...

No idea where we're going, a few mates have organised it i'm just being dragged along to partake, sure it'll be a laugh though

Just sticking with k04 hybrid for the moment, i've got scope for bigger should i decide to in the future.
As h17och said i'm already running the qpeng on mine, will be going in the near future though as i want 3" on there before the map gets tweeked

 

[Chrisdaman]

i know its a silly question, but the thread is huge and effort to go through

what size are your wheels?

 

[tris]

They are 17"s mate

 

[roly]

What Tris said

7x17 ET38 if i remember correctly

 

[Chrisdaman]

cheers

 

[suj]

sorry to sound dumb, but why do most people put mineral oil to run in their cars? always fascinated to learn

 

[h17och]

so you have less protection, that way things bed in

 

[h17och]

if you done youll end up polishing things
