due to dpf issues

The ride is fairly similar appears to be a little less body role when cornering quickly looks loads better!

Rip out the DPF and enjoy. The vacuum pipes if taken off and sealed up wont cause the ECU to throw an error. Add a turbo back exhaust and decent filter to get a decent amount out of it via a remap, and chase STi's in a straight line ;)

Damn sure I would have that done if I had a 170 TDi....

Hey Mike

I've still got the Green Panel filter off my Leon. If the mkII is same you can have it off me. Special Price for you!!!!

Still waiting for some feedback on removing the dpf! Guy at syealth racing said they hadnt done one yet and miltek were waiting for some results! That will be my next step though if it proves to be worth it! To be be fair not sure a standard ST would pull that much on me now! The FR now feels as quick as my CTR FN2 and that used to have sts!
