Looks smart with the satnav, is yours not a facelift model as it's got the bigger mfd instrument panel? That's what I'd like for mine as you can get the polar fis for it which is awesome!

Mine's a prefacelift mate! Got the big mfd and planning to get the polar fis ofcourse! How's everything going right now? I'm pretty curious!

You're lucky having that then, I'd like to have the polar fis in mine, but about £300 to get a set of FL Cupra clocks plus the price of the polar fis is too much to justify.

Car is fully run in now, just need to do the final oil and filter change with some decent 5w40 oil. Got it booked in for some dyno runs this Saturday to see what power it's running

Had some goodies arrive in the post, managed to buy some mtc hoses at a good price!

Leon Cupra K1 - Revo stage 2+ Fully Forged Build

Had the car on the dyno yesterday at West Tuning at Thruxton. Good result considering I'm still on stock car back exhaust, the milltek didn't arrive in time for the dyno .

358.8bhp and 360lbft

Had the big mfd clocks coded and swapped in for the small mfd ones. Just need to get a polar fis unit now!

Thats the first time i have seen the small mfd clocks im so glad my cupra didnt come with them.
I need to see the function of these polar fis units.


They do look a lot nicer! And I will let you know when I've got the polar fis installed. Should be next month hopefully

Hi I've just bought a k1 on 59 plate, it's had stage 1 and full milltek. What induction kit would you suggest, as that's what iam really missing at the moment! Cheers will

I'm running the Revo intake, other good ones are the ITG and Evoms, all flow well and make good power. There are plenty others too but depends on how much you want to spend

Thanks for that. I've been told the itg is one of the best, that was nearly £400 from awesome gti Manchester. Is there any slightly cheaper that you would suggest?? Cheers.

The large mfd looks awesome, I want to do that with mine. They are hard to come buy at a reasonable price. Who coded them in for you and did the mileage correction for you?

They definitely are, I waited a few months to get them for a reasonable price. If you search Alex VW Retrofit on Google/Facebook he done it all for £40. He can do the extras like lit needles etc if you want too

Fitted a milltek non res cat back exhaust today. Should've been done sooner than the last part haha. Sounds nicer than the standard seat sport one, got a deep rumble to it

Bloody hell thats a lot cheaper than I thought it would be for him to code them in. I've seen him on the Facebook group,cheers. The miltek sounds awesome doesn't it? I have the same system on my K1 with pretty much the same set up, it turns people's heads. Haha:thumbup:

Sorry didn't see the reply, yeah the exhaust sounds great. Much better now it's bedded in a bit .

Fitted a polar fis advanced tonight, have taken a few pictures showing the location. It is fiddly and tight to get at but doable in about 15-20 mins with some patience.
