I only gave you the parts list of a complete k04 conversion. Ok you don’t NEED some parts
Scratch off MAF 4bar FPR and turbo TIP but most of what I said is the conversion. Due to the manifold and turbo setup being different from k03.
You could do an FMIC in the opposite direction but it’s a...

Easiest way to do it is to have an engine hoist that goes onto the sides of the bay, maybe you can rent one. Then you undo the engine mounts, hoist up the engine and shove it as forward as possible in the bay. It’ll open up a TON of space in the back where it’s much easier to work on. And you...
Sorry to see you go brother, maybe one day you’ll step into a newer cupra. I know these old turbo cars are a pain really.

Flew from Germany to London and then took the train down to Poole and picked up my S3 and TT that I bought back in March that have been stuck on Guernsey due to Corona Virus Lockdown! Driving them back to Germany today! Bought some parts along the way as well, unfortunately no Cupra parts...

My buddy and I just did a Wash/claybar/compound/polish/wax treatment... it’s amazing how great the paint looks and feels! This is during compound. I’ll post pics tonight when I’m back in the garage or the after. I’m sure the car had never been polished or even washed often the last 20 years...
Hey guys just wanted to give an update, I picked up 2 of them here in Germany. They are also hard to come by without paying 150€ as everyone wants them here too. Really cleans up the look of the engine.
Not looking to make any money just pay my cost plus shipping to UK should be about 15-20£...
180hp 1.8t stock should peak at .6-.8 bar and settle .5-.6 Bar
My stage 1 tune now peaks at 1.3bar and settles 0.8-1bar 212ps 340nm
There is a MAP sensor that reads the boost pressure after side mount intercooler right before the throttle body.

I went with original Bosch. For mine it was part number 0 281 002 177 here is a pic of the old one. Be sure to look at yours and get the part number off of it. As they had 2 different sized ones. (Diameter of the Sensor)
I got mine of amazon for 40€ and arrived next day.
Also it would be...
