Yes standard engine with just an air filter and exhaust. Just hope when I get the car mapped it will yield good results.

Lower Strut Brace
-----
Finally got round to ordering and fitting the Audi S3 lower strut brace that is also fitted to the Leon Cupra R as standard. Part codes are already on Pabs sticky in the Leon MK1 section.
Took around 45 minutes to install mainly because the car is pretty low so scissor jack was required. Results are good although the difference is not a vast one. I tested the car round a few roundabouts/nice turns turns and then Slick did the same. We both agreed its made a small nice improvement, the car just felt tighter and more planted on the road.

Xenon HIDs and Side Lights
-----
Installed my Xenon 6000K HID Kit and Xenon 6 Head LED side lights two weeks back. Night and day difference over the old lights! I noticed you get a nice even spread with them and they really do light up the signs at night so much more than usual. As yet I haven't been flashed by any driver. I do recommend getting the alignment checked in case it is wrong.
Ebay shop I purchased these from are:

Special thanks to BCM for the heads up on the HID kit!

Fogs .... i'd leave them alone unless you want LED bulbs in so you can drive round with them on all the time without annoying people but that defeats the point of having them 
Yes thats what everyone has said...i just want all one colour and fogs same colour that work..seems that isnt possible or is it? Going to have to look around.Fogs .... i'd leave them alone unless you want LED bulbs in so you can drive round with them on all the time without annoying people but that defeats the point of having them
You'll struggle to get halogen fogs to match the HID - J@mes has put HID in his fogs which is easy enough to do - just not something i'd do. I'd HID the main beams first which is where i'm going next and leave the fogs alone

Got a little bit fed up of the standard Aura unit. Fact that it couldn't play MP3s really bugged me! Came down to two choices really, buy a Becker unit with Bluetooth or just a Becker Unit without bluetooth!
Purchased this beauty from a SCN memeber, a_waugh for a fair price. Came within 3 days and straight into the car the next day!
Sound quality is out of this world. Really does bring the best out of the Leon speakers which imo are pretty good. Crystal clear sound and clean bass, thumbs up!
Oh forgot to say matches perfectly in the car.

I am considering ditching the JVC in mine and going for something like this, does it come with front, rear and sub outputs Maz?
Indeed it does Pat.
You know what the great thing is aswell...it looks so standard that no one has noticed I changed the unit in the car!
