I had a mk1 LCR loved it, had a local garage remap it took it to around 250 255bhp but that was before I'd heard of Revo lol, but seriously theres loads of good tuners out there, do some searching on here, read some build threads! Good luck n enjoyVery nice cars, wish I could afford a mk2 . Hopefully get mine looking like your R with bumpers etc.(mines in black too) the only reason I asked if you were mk1 owners before is too see if it swayed you to stick to Leon's, as my ideal car was a focus st but am now swayed to aiming for a k1
Thanks 10man. I'm pretty local too you. Where did you get the map done?

Mark I was considering going for the custom code map but would you say go else where now? Have you had any experience of different maps on identical cars? Cheers
I went Revo hq at daventry northampton, they had an open day so made sense, there are closer ones, awesome gti think there in Loughborough there's p/torque not sure were they are tho,
Having previous Leons has made me stick with SEAT, as well as this forum / friends.
Looked at focus ST's and Astra VXR's. TBH the ST makes a wicked noise, but power levels from the 2.5, is much the same as the 1.8 turbo in Cupra R form. To tune a Cupra / Cupra R is also cheaper that either the ST / VXR. To get over 300bhp, you would need to have deep pockets, where as the VAG 1.8 / 2.0 Turbos are relatively cheap.
I wouldn't say not to use CC, but just that the map on mine made the power come in arounf 1.5k revs, and dropped off around 4.5k.
The most popular remap is REVO, and there are more agents.
