Liam's Leon Cupra TDI

[liam8888]

Bought myself a Seat Cupra 150 TDi last week, and after a week driving it I love it. Thought I might as well start a thread up seen as tho I'll be doing some mods.

Mods I'll be doing up to yet:

Cupra R Front Bumper (on the way) - Came but was the wrong 1, different 1 on the way.
Fabia rear wiper
Re-Map (Maybe)
Coilovers

Mods Done so Far:

Ripspeed DVD Stereo Installed
18 inch R8 replica wheels


Any other mods recommended

get it re-mapped that should be first on the list

 

[liam8888]

not to fussed about re-mapping, i'd like to keep the MPG as high as a can, high much would re-mapping it lose does any 1 know, and what gains do you get

 

[cuprakemp]

miles per gallon should not change

 

[jase750]

if anything your MPG should improve

 

[liam8888]

miles per gallon should not change

oh right I thought it would, if it doesn't make a differene to the MPG, i'll add it to the list

Dont forget that the oem clutch will not cope forever after the remap - I would recommend upgrading this too at some point.
My plan is to get the clutch and remap done at the same time so i can use all the torque avaliable.
Nice car by the way

You'd think especially for taxis that it would be at the best MPG it could possible anyway for what they do. Seems daft they don't to me. Defo won't get bored am keeping this for while.

Not priced it up to be honest but i would suggest at least 1.5k to get a Sach clutch kit and good quality remap.

nice looking motor, i'd also look at fitting an lcr front splitter as it makes the front look better as well as changing the aerial and front wipers to aero ones

Most probably will get 1, got to save my pennies up again now, blown it all on a new set of rims n the cupra r front bumper

1.5 k dont think i'll be doing that then, would take me ages to save that sort of cash up.

debadged rear gets my vote as well, makes it look less cluttered and cleaner imo. splitter is a nice ones as its 22quid from the dealers too

 

[liam8888]
