got the cupra, went stage 1 superchips today. totally different performance than the fr. felt much quicker on stage 1 with no mods than the fr did on stage 2 with the milltek tb and itg. called andy at itg there and sorted out the part needed to swap over the intake so looking forward to getting everything back on again. thanks for all the help guys

yeah they quote around a 44bhp increase so maybe 280? a lot of the earlier cupras showed well over 237 on the dyno as standard, but this is 2nd hand with 27,000 on the clock so who knows. yeah i plan to go stage 2 asap, but have heard a few bad reviews for superchips on the k04's was thinking of going for a custom map from a tuner in N.Ireland instead?

im going for stage 1 revo with panell filter for now, eventually get a cai. Cant be arsed with the exhaust though. Im hoping for 300 bhp with stage 1 revo cars an 07 done 17k what you reckon?
 
i'd say mine is just under 300bhp and i have stg1, green panel filter and milltek cat back. I want to go for a sports cat and maybe a CAI. I might go for a K&N kit as i should be able to get one cheaper than normal price :) Oh and you have to get the exhaust it makes it sound sooooo much better.

have a look through here, on every single rolling road day all the cars that are tock, have made stock horsepower. which meanst that all the other cars on the day provided strapped down equally as well etc are running pretty accurate figures

http://www.jkm.org.uk/performance/GalleryRollingroad.htm

ed30 230Ps=226Hp
GTI 200ps=197hp

as a top end comparison this is a stage 2+ revo which islaso what another revo stage 2+ car made on AMDs rollers since they had them calibrated

kezFR07,

I wouldnt get hung up about the 300bhp figure mate as its a rolling road lottery after all. The stage one map transforms the way the car drives and it holds power for longer up the rev range than a standard Cupra.

My stage 1 cupra with only a map and a EVOMS intake can outrun the new Focus RS, Hawkeye Subaru STi Uk etc. And these two cars are meant to be 300bhp out of the box and alot more torque than the Stage 1 cupras. So it just shows numbers aint everything :)
