Yep but not like the K04 on your leon
These tfsi k04's produce BT power when fiddled with
They shouldnt even call it a ko4 really

Ha yeah should see 300easy from a map. Wasnt sure if it was just the same as the normal leon cupra mk2. Whats on the R the mk2?
Looks like an awesome motor buddy. Keep us updated with how you get on with modding it
Thanks mate and I will do. This weekend I'm gunna try and squeeze and a wash and quick wax in and some photos on the DSLR.
Might have to start a new thread sooner than I thought as just sorted a Milltek
Ready... Steady... Oh... He's already fallen off the wagon then...
non-resinated?
Haha yeah already
Yeah non res, everytime I press the throttle I'm waiting for this Bark from the rear and it's not there, defo needs a better exhaust note.

Truthfully.... It doesn't... yet
When you hit the loud pedal in the Ibiza it was mental. You got induction noise from the B5 3inch tip and then it hit full boost and you had the exhaust booming holding onto that tiny steering wheel then the valves where dancing on the bonnet reaching a few inches down to change gear and stamping the pedal again, doing all that whilst been tightly squeezed in the bucket seat just put the biggest smile on my face aswell as the passenger.
The K1 is totally different machine so smooth and refined it's unreal. Cruising in 6th on the M1 on the way home it was so quiet but still torquey. Would pull from 70mph to fast lane speed no problem and will pull out of low speed roundabouts in 3rd no problem. After not having even a CD player or pas it's real nice to have sat nav and lights/wipers that turn on and off for me.
Handling wise I did a lot to get the Ibiza where I wanted it and had more plans for it but the K1 is real good straight out the box, just the right stiffness for throwing about but would benefit from a anti lift kit I think.
Plans for it I'm thinking
Exhaust, intake, lowering on shocks and springs (Bilstein B12 poss) rear arb and anti lift kit and of course a map of some sort.
Then I'll look into a Diff, uprated clutch and big brakes. I miss the diff like mad already lol

You dont hang around do you. Noise of a milltek will put a smile on your face surely?
Plans sound good also, look forward to seeing it come along. Pretty sure youll get sucked into buying more as bill does all his tests

It puts a smile on my face now just needs a few personal tweaks like any new motor would
Milltek should be here middle to end of next week
Thanks mate, and you family car is awesome

Yeah defo just need some time to tinker with it
gunna start a new thread later. Power delivery is so smooth yeah. And sooo comfy to drive.
It's not as quick as the Ibiza, not yet any way but it's no slow coach
but doing a ton in the Ibiza you knew about it for sure clinging on and forcing the steering wheel round hahaNo i wouldnt imagine it would be slow with 240bhp, just wouldnt have the same thrill yet haha. Yeah i know what you mean, even 70 in the iniza and you know of it.
So any idea of the ultimate plans? Will you be going as far as the ibiza? Or just keeping it running well and clean?
Tbf its not good atall what happened to the ibiza, but the turnout is pretty damn great eh. Wouldnt wish for anyones car to be damaged in any way, especially a car that has had so much time and effort spent on it. But it really has worked out well
