Sam's Candy White Ibiza 2007 Cupra

[samussamus1]

Hello Guys,

I've gone and sold my 96 Integra to buy something easier to drive daily and to commute to work in.

So I went and bought a 57 plate White Cupra T....

Its in pretty good condition, needs a couple parking dinks removing and a bit of paint touching up on the front bumper (probably changing anyway).

The car is (was?) completely standard but does however have a stage 1 Remap (210bhp)

First day of ownership, I removed the rear wiper and fitted LED Number Plate Lights.

I have a lot of plans for this car and already have a lot of goodies on the way.

Excuse the bad pictures, only ones I have as I'm waiting to get some good shots!

Here she is;





Both my girls together



Modifications;

Engine:
RamAir Air Filter (Aluminium/Foam/70mm) + 70mm Boost Junkies Silicone Joiner
Stage 1 210bhp Remap (no printout/proof)

Exterior:
VVME Xenon Kit 8000k 55w - Dipped
Amber LED Sidelights
De-Wipered
Press Aluminium Number Plates

Interior:
Full LED Interior Lights Converted

At the moment I have a list of items waiting to go on or on its way!

On its way;

OMP Steering Wheel
Boss Kit
Steeromg Wheel Quick Release
70mm RamAir Induction Kit - fitted
Boost Junkies 70mm Silicone Joiner - fitted
Pressed Number Plates
LED Interior Conversion Lights - fitted
Amber LED Sidelights

Ebay HID Kit (Purple) for fogs


I've also booked the car in at South West Tinting to have the Headlights, Fogs, Taillights and Reflectors Tinted and the front lip wrapped in Gloss Black.

Next on the list to get ordered is;

Fully Adjustable Coilovers (Still deciding on which)

There is lots and lots more than this, but this will do for the moment

LED Interior Conversion Lights
VVME HID Kit with Relay Harness for Dipped

The above fitted

Thanks to the Induction, it sounds like a monster! The Turbo spool noise is incredible and she flutters constantly when letting off, even just when pulling away around town normally! Love it

I'm trying to get a video up

 

[mcd90]

Have you got a pic of the induction?

 

[samussamus1]

Here is a couple of videos, sorry if the sound isn't loud enough or poor quality.

Have you got a pic of the induction?

I'll snap a picture for you when I go out to the car (hours time)

30mm, blimey haha! Looks lush though dude.

Do you or anyone else know if I can fit a Turbo Back Decat Milltek system without any issues, or will it pick up the decat and go into limp mode?

Cheers

 

[Marcus_550]

Iv got a piper turbo back that went on before map, put a spacer in the second lambda and never had no issue 6 to 8 months before it was mapped

I'm running a Milltek TBE with decat and Revo map and no issues (FR TDI)

 

[mcd90]

Should your induction sound like that? When mine fluttered something wasn't connected properly? Running standard dv still?
I've got the full system on, only problem is my exhaust rattles off the rear axel because of the lows and bigger diameter of pipe. Engine light is on as well but no problems.

 

[samussamus1]

Okay cheers guys, was a bit worried about fitting a system before the map, but all sounds fine!

The induction I guess is meant to sound like that? Everything seems to be connected properly and its a standard DV. I think the RamAir filters don't baffle any of the sound, I kind of like it

I've since fitted the Amber Sidelights and Press Plates, much tidier!

I had a little play with Photoshop.
