Cheers and am not sure everyone wants me to polish them but i'm not so sure i think some kind of a dark grey or gloss black would loook good
Yeah the dash is quite cool

Right now am thinking gloss black wheels, black FMIC along with black alloy FMIC pipes, colour code the bumpers and black badges
Also thinking to go KO3s is hard to swap over? and do you just need to order the bits in the sticky section for the KO3s conversion from SEAT?
Finallys does this look ok?

looks okey but the best is check the turbo your self the ko3 turbos do crack in the exhaust housing.. it not hard to swap.yep order the parts from sticky section
like your plans with the black but don`t do the d90 all black just the senter

Ok cheers for the advice. Yeah i think a few painted bits are needed next
So do the centre's black and the outside polished or a different colour lip?
also is it worth upgrading the manifold aswell? as danny_lad sayed in his blog the manifold made a big difference.
It is worth it yes. INA have a group buy on at the moment: http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/show...82#post2601982
Works out at about £170 which is a steal for what your getting..!
Good work on tidying up the engine bay there!

Ok cheers for the link think am guna get one even if i don't upgrade the turbo
haha cheers it needed a few bits sorting and removing but i'm slowly getting there. Still lots to do though!
Get your name down quick as it needs 5 more people in 9 days to go ahead
Defiantly going in the right direction anyway!

Right small update now folks managed to find a k03s turbo at a very decent price.
So i'm just waiting on my INA group buy manifold to come the I can start fitting! And hopefully get it mapped
Revo stage 2 for me i think!

Well started fitting the k03's today and the new manifold! Old turbo came off easy and same with the manifold a few of the bolts are hard to get at but not too bad! Got the new turbo in place with coolant and oil lines connected up.
Few bits taken off
New turbo fitted
But when trying to fit the manifold i had to grind some of it down.
But i think its guna fit so thats tomorrows job!
A few pics of the manifold. You can really see the difference now
Also started painting the alloy intercooler pipes, there just in primer so i've not got any pic's but will get some soon
Just waiting on a few more bits to come then its getting mapped on Saturday! Cant wait

Yeah i thought why not. I had all the mod's already for it. Should be good when its done. Taking the old turbo off was a bit awkward just been taking my time putting it back together.
Also sprayed a few more bits and tucked the ballasts for HID's under the headlights.
Quite fancy trying a wire tuck at some point but unsure how hard are they to do?

Nice progress dude! I've had my k03s and downpipe/decat sitting in the garage for months now! I gotta book some time off to do it, I'm wanting it done now so I can get it mapped to sort the mpg out. If it improves then I may not have to sell it...!

What kind of down pipe did you have? one of the best mod's i did aswell as removing the centre box. It pops and shoots flames. So should be fun on stage 2
Yeah you need a few days to do it. Its kinda fiddly so you need to take your time or you just loose patients. But am sure it will be worth it when its mapped
I started first thing monday and its all together now. But i did lots of little jobs aswell, so it wasn't so bad
How bad's you mpg? :L
