Can't wait til mines stage 2+, getting intercooler and fuel pump internals fitted then mapping this month hopefully! It's stage 1+ at the moment so can't wait for the extra power.

Ordered my replacement btcc bumper...£430 just in time for Christmas

Where from? is that a single bumper or all of them, also i have the chance of buying the facelift rear BTCC bumper and twin exhaust, would that fit my pre facelift model? I really hope it does, as i need that BTCC body kit, it just transforms the whole look of the car :)

thanks

Does the extra power actually get used though as I find the Cupra will wheel spin through 1st and 2nd and 3rd! And that's only stage 1...

You need a better set of tyres then bud lol mines useless in 1st and 2nd but starts putting power down in 3rd, only on dry roads mind you when it's wet any gear it will spin up

Is there a pre and a post face lift btcc bumper? I didn't think there was a difference with them, only with the standard types?

And so it begins....
Filled Puk up with a nice full tank of VPower Nitro+
Got 30.4mpg on the way back, driving "sensibly". This is going to hurt for a while :)

I've noticed it isn't as bad since I've put a brand new set of Eagle F1's on it, but still I think the car struggles to put the power down through 1st and 2nd. It makes me want to get a 4x4 car, as my buddies Evo FQ340 has literally no wheel spin at all, foot down it just flies!

Use Tesco's Momentum and think of the clubcard points...
Got 29.6 on a run up to Leeds , again, driving "sensibly" :D

Just bought me a low profile trolley jack this morning, so now it's just down to pure laziness as to when I fit my front & rear spacers...

Booked my car in for 17th jan to have all the suspension looked at properly and a proper 4 wheel alignment carried out again. Hopefully that'll sort all my issues.

I use Tesco 99 now too, I used to use V Power and redeem the points but over time the "rewards" I got seemed to get less and less so I've sacked it off totally now, I notice no performance dip at all in switching fuels plus I'm saving money at the pump so it's win win really.
