Hi everyone! I'm kinda new to the seat world, recently purchased a red Leon FR 1.8 and diving deep down into the mods I am able to do.... So far it has some things done here and there and is remapped to 225whp and 280 whp for racing (using 95-98 octane).

I'm posting here a couple pictures of my Leon

So just a little update.... After some time searching and searching finally got some upgrades brakes and did the installation yesterday.... Front are from AudiS3 8V with 340mm disc... Rears are from a GolfR MKV with 310mm disc...

In the photos are: fronts original vs modified, rears original vs modified and how it looks like now....


Now I'm searching for an upgraded intercooler.. was thinking of a Unitronic...

Hi all!

Me again, time for some more little changes:

I was able to change my OEM intercooler for a Unitronic one, also changes de boost and charge pipes and changed the OEM xenon bulbs for OSRAM night breaker laser and also changed my DV for a gofastbits Dv+... Some pictures below!

Now I am waiting for some other brakes and to get a k04 turbo or maybe at lease the turbo from a 2.0TSI (Wich I understand now a bit bigger than the one my car has)

Hi all!! Brief update again! So I went BBK and got some brembo 18z front and the matching rears, rotor size I kept the same and also used the creations Motorsports dual Caliper adapter kit.... This is what it looks like now... I am now searching for a turbo upgrade and seems I can get my hands into a K04 from an 8p Audi s3.

Well.. It's been a while posting here and I can now see that the previous pictures I posted are no longer available... WIll try to take some pics from the car today and update... I had put a CTS catch can but removed it (it would fill up too fast) changed the DV+ for a DV+VTA and installed a mamba k04.. Finally crossed the 400 WHP mark!!!! Also changed the radiator for a full aluminium one from ECS.. now I have an issue with LED fog lights.. one of them would randomly burn.... any ideas or advise are greatly welcome.
