Hi

I recently bought a 2017 Leon FR SC 184 PS TDI in mystery blue with the upgraded sports exhaust and bumper, alcantara seats and seat sound. I love it but it could do with a few mods so I hope you guys can help me! Basically thinking of doing the following so any recommendations would be highly appreciated in terms of parts/places:

- coilovers as the car needs lowered
- gloss black roof and mirror cap wrap and front bumper wrap (make it look more like a cupra)
- needs mapped
- need the exhaust louder :whistle:


Any help would be greatly appreciated! :D:D

Welcome to the site, Nice car and love the mystery blue.

With regards to mapping you will find a split of mapping via main stream (REVO APR etc) or custom by garage.
The other side is the black box solution like Race Chip (and there are a few good ones out there).

I personally prefer Revo/APR simply because they dont over cook the map but give you power / economy across the range and work the engine as its supposed to be used. But we are all different so you need to review all the options people give you.

You should also look at OBD11 / VCDS as they allow you to do stuff to the car that makes it better in terms of features the car can have for free.

You also need to look at tires, the more power you have the better the rubber you want to keep you on the road.

Enjoy the build and keep us all updated with pics.

Hi I'm from Carlisle so I guess not too far away. How much would it roughly be to get something similar done to mine?

if you have facebook, search for "west yorkshire tuning" as you have a new car not sure what the cost is, i paid £400 for mine which was DPF removed and welded back, and then custom dyno tuned with DPF removed off the ecu and EGR removed also - Printout included on what the car was before and after

He's had alot of high end old to new cars going in and hes really good
