    New Leon mk4 thoughts

    Been reading through different reviews on the new MK4 Leon. Some of the journalist are considering CUPRA will be giving the CUPRA Leon a GTE kind of setup, currently the Golf 8 GTE will have around 242BHP from a 1.4 turbocharged petrol engine combined with an electric motor. Do you think CUPRA...

    K1/bttcc bumper

    If the Leon Cupra is an actual K1 the bumper won't fit onto an 2011 Facelift Leon. K1's only ran between 2008 - 2009. But.. there's an Leon FR SuperCopa kit that had similar flared bumpers that will fit onto a 2011 Facelift Leon, so check the year the bumper will be coming off from.

    SEAT have ruined the LEON

    Don’t know if it’s mentioned in the article but heard from a dealer that they won’t be a SC version anymore in either the new Audi A3, Golf 8 or SEAT MK4 only 5 door or estate options. don’t know how true it is, but think it would be a shame to lose the coupé.

    SEAT Cupra K1

    This is putting me off too, what caused the seals to fail on the turbo? Is it due to increased/decreased pressure a de-cat makes?

    SEAT Cupra K1

    I haven't really heard a de-catted Cupra in person, so I don't know how much difference it would make it? Is they anything you need to watch out for when fitting a de-cat? - I've read a couple of threads saying it could cause more pain then the gains you'd get out of it.

    SEAT Cupra K1

    Planning to fit my Milltek Decat onto my Cupra at the weekend. Do you think I should still go ahead and get this fitted or scrap the idea and leave the cat on?

    SEAT Cupra K1

    Yes true, I understand what you mean. I was looking at a high pressure fuel pump upgrade but they are quite expensive at the moment. Would you go for internal upgrade or full upgrade? At the moment it’s running just a CAT back but I do have a down pipe with de-cat to go on the car. In terms of...

    SEAT Cupra K1

    The Ramair is quite noisy but it gives you a smile when the turbo starts spooling and the car sounds like it's from the Fast and the Furious, but I have taken the sound proofing out of the bonnet that I will be putting back now.. :) I will take a look at the stage 2 options see if I should stop...

    SEAT Cupra K1

    Thank you, on paper the 350Z had more BHP so I just presumed I'd struggle to keep up with it.. I was shocked and realized this thing shifts.

    Stuttering & Loss of Power - Flashing Glow Plug

    Hi, thanks for your reply. I've checked the power supply and the cables seem fine from corrosion. The cables near the fuse box seemed really bad but I have cleaned them up and all fuses are fine. It will not let me clear the engine malfunction errors from the car, seems really strange.
