    Goodbye Leon, Hello S3

    Max power revs

    every car is different but ive found changing at around 4500k is best if you giving it the beans. this means youll drop to about 3000 revs and thats when my turbo can really give the full wack. (dropping to anything around 2500 could still give a bit of turbo lag. 3-3500 will give a good...

    Cupra R - tax gone up?

    no of course not, cant blame them at all. and its not about an increase in £10. i think what alot of people have started to question is whether its really worth paying all this for a car which is nearly 10 years old. its the reason why ive stopped modding it as well. like i said, ive had...

    MK1 prices and a general rant

    how long are you willing to wait for the right offer though? will that time ever come? unfortunately only the enthusiasts will appreciate the time and effort youve put into the car. its sad like most have said, people just want a cheap fast ride and dont consider the LCR to be worth anything...
