The stock IC is very good... But i want the larger one to eliminate some smoke...

I am sure it may provide some sort of positive result...

I am getting the car Dyno´d soon...

Im expecting about 250 bhp taking into consideration all the hardware inside...


Last Dyno test was canceled do to excess smoking....
Probably due to my lack of knowledge! But cant see how an FMIC that is efficient already and putting a bigger FMIC that will aid cooling but doesnt alter lower the amount of fuel being burnt which causing the smoke? The car got bigger injectors or running on stock injectors still?

Well, I have heard many diferent opinions and seen a few articles.

Some say it will do the trick. Other say nothing will change.

So I have decided to try and see for myself.
I am sure that it must bring some positive result, :blink:

I will post up the results once fitted...

I havent opted for upgraded injectors (Race 783) as I do not want more smoke.

Injectors are probably the only things I havent fitted ... for now...

I really do hope you hit 250BHP as your car is the dogs bollox however I heard that the standard 150PD injectors max at at 230BHP. Much past that and its melt down :blink:

Lets see the results when done :)

How hard is it to fit and wire the S3 leathers? and what you got in the Rear?



Its as easy as making babies...

The rear had a panel covering the rear seats.

In Portugal 150 cars where made as comercial vehicles.

This was an overdue stock selling excercise, as the 1P Leon was on sale already. (The car is registered as a 2006 model)

I purchased the Leon without rear seats, and had a huge discount on the car.

Even though its a 4 door car, and Seat offered the Seats, it is mainly an idiotic tax law.

You will see many 2 seater comercial cars here in Portugal.

They do not cover up the rear windows like in some countries.

Vans here are just norma cars without rear Seats.

The Ibiza is a popular model for that here...

:blink:

Just pull.

Remember where the OEM stickers start at the top.

Align them well, and stick and peel slowly.

Use a credit card or spatula for tinted windows.

Make suer the doors are nice n clean.

No big deal really. Its a cheap mod and has quite a cool end result.

Just do that in a dust free environment, I did mine outdoors the first time round and got a few bubbles inside.

Good Luck. ;)

Well, if it does not hit 250BHP, I dont want it anymore...

Just with the Nasty Remap and a few other bits i had it at 207BHP.

Now it has the "motherload" and it better go past 230.

However the dyno is supposedly the most honest one around.

All you DYNO freaks have probably heard of them MAHA LPS 3000.


I am getting it Dyno´d on the 5 April... Hopefully.

If it wont hit 250 on the MAHA... its a DUD! :headhurt:
