    The exhaust manifold is a completely different shape. Looking at it I'd say it was a K03s

    Shane's Cupra K1 - Revo Stage 2

    Going to look at having the inlet off to fit my RFD kit and RS4 valve. Also want the valves decoked. Any recommendations?

    Shane's Cupra K1 - Revo Stage 2

    Been a busy chap lately. So only had small amounts of time to get things done Fitted an Intercooler from a mk6 Golf R. This is basically the S3 cooler but with plastic moulded end tanks. I have been reliably informed this actually flows a little better than the alloy end tanks. Not a thread...

    Mk1 Leon

    I'll scan codes for you tomorrow dan To add o the story, the car was sold as having a stage 2 map and a ko4 conversion. However upon inspection, I don't think it's had a turbo swap. My knowledge of the 1.8t isn't the best so it'll need someone who's a lot more experienced to have a look over it...

    Tfsi to flutter or not to flutter?

    Hahaha I know I know. The noise was just too inviting to take it off. But in the process of deducing a potential boost leak. That's where I started. once my exhaust is sorted I'll be logging the car and then I can see if there's anything amiss. I just wondered was there a happy ending here as...

    Tfsi to flutter or not to flutter?

    Interesting. So you've never got the full volume flutter back again? This is bugging me big time. I can't work out what's changed lol

    Tfsi to flutter or not to flutter?

    Sorry to revive a thread. I'm experiencing the exact same symptoms. My DV return hose popped off the throttle pipe on the motorway. I nursed it off as I was near a slip road and got it back on and secured. Hasn't come loose since. However, since that, I seem to be slightly down on power. I...

    That's a reasonably simple fix then. Hopefully this should work out nicely

    Stock wheels + TTRS brakes

    Sorry to ressurect an old thread. I am about to do exactly the same with my K1. I have TTRS calipers, discs, pads & lines on the way. I just need to know: Will my 18" Orion alloys clear the above setup? Will I have to use the oem Cupra discs instead? If I have to use the 345mm oem discs, is...

    Shane's Cupra K1 - Revo Stage 2

    So. Back from the ring again. Car is in one piece again My comments for the parts above: Yellowstuff pads - not bad. Better than oem but still have fade after prolonged use Eagle F1 Assy 3 - squealed the whole way there and back. Really disappointed with them. I have since been informed the...

    Vehicle tax bands 2017

    Council tax pays for potholes Vehicle excise duty is money used to offset the carbon footprint created by vehicles Road tax stopped being used for potholes decades ago unfortunately. Hence the state of the roads

    Shane's Cupra K1 - Revo Stage 2

    A small update to add Had the middle box removed and a straight pipe welded in its place. It's now straight from the turbo to the rear box. Car now sounds like a tractor on cold start. But less so when warm. Much more raspy and the occasional pop and crackle on the overrun makes it the best £60...

    Shane's Cupra K1 - Revo Stage 2

    Settings tweaked. New filter is on. Also fitted short shift kit which has made the gearbox a pleasure to use! Massive difference. Can't wait to get it back on track and see how it helps. Next to go on, is the gearbox mount, subframe spacers and new bolts. Then I've got a bigger discharge and...

    Shane's Cupra K1 - Revo Stage 2

    So the car made it to the green hell and back in 1 piece Very happy with the car with one glaring exception. As my clutch was replaced the battery was removed for over 2 hours. This caused all my revo settings to go to zero. So effectively I went to the ring with stage 2 software albeit very...
