You getting the new AmD Stage 2 map? Im sure you will be pleased
+1
And exhaust wise are you getting the new milltek like me and Adam?
Yeah really looking forward to the AMD map! hoping for a good result with out any problems lol
I paid £35 for the head lamp protectors with a discount from the friendly seat parts guy they are discontinued and no longer made so very limited stock left if anyone wants any get down to seat & order now before they are no more
Good man. Make sure you post up the results.
Excuse me for not reading through the whole thread... but have you got the 3" TIP? Highly recommend that too

Well just got back from AMD essex today
Standard with Stage 2 mods it made
231bhp 223lb/ft! YAY!
Was a good day all in all, all of the AMD staff were very helpful and friendly faultless service, they found 3 faults before they started, great i thought all minor though first being the temp sensor which was replaced ages ago with the green one fault code remained, another fault was low maf reading and another battery voltage low, all nothing to worry about was told, all would map out.
This seemed strange to me because JKM said no faults on vagcom when they had it in a while ago and checked it! oh well
Got all the three problems fixed during the last run decided fit a new MAF sensor replaced old one was dirty, At one point it wouldn't get past 260bhp so eventually we realised it needed a new spring in the forge 007p changed the green spring in the 007p to a yellow one, and finally got some good runs in with better results
Finally my lcr 210 made 270bhp + 319lb/ft which was very good
Operator comments were very encouraging "this car is absolutely billistic on the road to drive"
He took it out for a drive round the block after the map saying its better on the road then the rollers, you will be impressed with it now
Took aload of photos and videos so will post them up soon
still not done the N249 Bypass, polished charge pipe or Badgers custom TIP
so im happy for now
Photos of the day rained all the way up for our 2hr trip

I understand the ecu adapts to changes as its driven so who knows if the power would increase over time? anyhoo mods done so far
Forge FMIC
Forge 007p yellow spring dump valve
Miltek Hiflow Sports Cat + Miltek Catback exhaust system
Forge TIP
Green Pannel Cotten Filter
just wondering if N249 Bypass, polished charge pipe or Badgers custom TIP and perhaps a bigger cone filter would make any difference along with the cold side relocation kit?
also i've got no cold air feed just standard airbox? worth looking into?

You wont get any gains from a polished charge pipe or the cold side relocation kit.
If you want to stick with the airbox then get a decent cold feed to it, Mine always made good power with my modded one.
270bhp + 319lb/ft are very good figures, you should get a bit more once it adapts

yes the drive home was alot better than the drive up! whole car felt alive!, its taken just over a year and a bit to collect all the mods needed for stage 2 so very pleased with the result, will post pics and videos when my friend uploads them

Get the cold air feed done ASAP, put a nice big 3" feed pipe up there, also if you want some more noise drill the bottom of te airbox,
This might help http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=198039&highlight=airbox+smoothing+guide
I'v just put a big Jetex cone on mine and the only difference in noise I'v noticed so far is a bit more DV noise.
Personally I'd leave the N249 alone, I see it as a safty net,
