Exhaust is on, took a while to get it sitting correctly and had to cut up the downpipe

Original system (standard middle section with Remus backbox)

So what is it like? the car barks and burbles ... but isn't stupidly loud, the system itself has two small boxes on it

Exhaust is looking good, makes me want to get get 1 bought and then I can get stage 2 software.
Would be interesting to hear what the exhaust sounds like now.

I've heard good things about wavetrac but I'm happy with my quaife. Had it out on track the other day

So I've had a small chip in the windscreen for a few days, Called the insurance and they sent out Auto Windscreens to repair, Bloke turns up and repairs it but as he removes the machine the bloody windscreen decides to crack half way across it :(

£90 excess later I'm having a new windscreen on Thursday.

Hi Andrew,

First off, been reading the whole thread and I really love what you've done with your car!

I have a 2010 MK2 Leon Cupra R, just like you, and I'd also like to install 42 draft's metal bushings. However, 42 draft don't have any experience with SEATs so they can't point me to the right product.

Which of their bushings did you use, that fitted your Cupra R?

Thanks a million!

i cant really help because i had the 42DD bushes fitted to my 2008 FR TDI, i then simply swapped the gear linkage over from the FR onto the LCR.

You will probably need MY09+ linkages

Few minor updates

1.Updated RNS310 from V0227 to V0357 which has added a range of features
2.Fitted a MK1 Leon boot net to stop stuff flying around

Thinking off Plati-dipping my wheels in bright orange for winter
