White FR to Black Cupra - Cupra Now Sold :(

[Hartosh1]

Nah mate no advantage to a silenced or unsilenced!

No mate no email to say when they would be ready but im guessing its going to be around 20+ days arghhh

Gonna be selling my 20mm spacers and k03s turbo so should get some money back for them plus my downpipe aswell

 

[Scott-o]

Did you get the rears staggered at et25 too? Glad they could do that to sack spacers off!

He told me approx 7th Feb but that was last week

 

[Hartosh1]

No bud i just stayed et28 all round i reckon 10mm spacers will be needed! Ive found running the rear spacers was a really good mod and as its the rear it didnt bother me only front would!

Well i was told like 20+ days from when the work starts but they hadnt even started mine yet which is lucky. Cant wait for them though gonna be mint! Got that wheel guard to put on aswell and going for parada spec 2's still

 

[Scott-o]

shoulda got them abit lower offset at the back and you wouldnt have needed any spacers, i was tempted by et20 but woulda cried if it rubbed like my old porsche ones lol

Think its cos they are casting loads of blanks of your wheels soon but they already have blanks of mine ready to machine. Hopefully will find out a date tomorrow!

You go for anthracite aswell?

 

[Hartosh1]

I went black mate ive had anthracite and they are nice but i always wanted to try black anyways

 

[Scott-o]

Black will look the tits on the grey cupra though, good shout! Are they a matt black?

 

[Alex 17]

Going to spurt out what alloys you chose yet? I keep looking at comps trying to figure it out lol.

 

[Scott-o]

Bit of a clue they are 17x8's all round

 

[Alex 17]

Amazing clue! You gone for a motorsport / rally style alloy or more like mine ?

 

[Scott-o]

They are a motorsport wheel

 

[Alex 17]

How much per alloy think I have a clue after you asked someone about the wheels he had .. Hmmm!

 

[Scott-o]

Them wheels your thinking of are discontinued

 

[Alex 17]

Well that pissed on my fire

 

[Scott-o]

It would have been them though probably, if they still did them!

 

[wazza16]

car sounds good pal, ive got my TB milltek on sounds sweet good growl wen spools up! is that a usual boost curve of like 22psi peak and fading back to around 12 at top revs? spoke to john sent him my ecu numbers now just have to wait for funds for the map! mybe get along to a rolling road day with yaz in the summer!

 

[Scott-o]

Im not sure if that boost profile is right, though it certainly sorts out the torque and power curves perfectly

Spot on mate, how much is he charging you out of interest? He's sound John isnt he! Great bloke

 

[Hartosh1]

Just looked at those graphs Scott your boost comes in well early mate poor little k03s is working its socks off to keep it haha thats the only decent thing about the hybrid being able to sustain boost further up the rev range!

 

[Scott-o]

Aye John told me after he mapped it that he made it tail off up the revs to save it over working. Can see it holds torque pretty damn well though, no silly spike and harsh drop off Picks up quick in any gear and just does one haha

 

[Damoegan]

You got any logs of boost (requested Vs actual), Scott?

 

[Scott-o]

Dont have vag-com Damo and wouldnt have a clue how to do logs haha

I did try sort vag-com out but couldnt get it to work. Im useless with pc's!

You can vouch it goes well
