Shyly posted before; this time I got a combo of questions:

-I have intention to get a supersprint full exaust system;
1-What sall I install, the full system without cat, the full system with cat or only the end pipe?
2-What HP diference could be betwen them?
3-In case of installing the system without cat (that is my intention :>), what will apend with the lamba? sall I see a warning light on the control table (I mean behind the steering weel, bullshit of tecnical English I have!). Will this afect anyway to the motor, with any safe mode from the ecu, wrong lectures of the gas flow or something, I mean. Or nevertheless the only thing that can hapen Is to have allways on the warning light on the board (suposing that this happens :) )?

-About the eternal subjet of ARB´s...
4-As I live in Spain, and as I can see on the forum the front arb is the golf II ones anthe the rear, polo 4 ones... what can I do? Try to find both eibach arbs kits (and paying 2x :_D)? Or nonetheless buying the part of the polo will be enough?
5-From the lot of options to get out the fuk*ng understering problems, what about puting a thinner front arb, coming from other ibiza?
6-Know that will sound extreme but as we say... "to great the evils, great remedies": What about putting of the front ARB? I think that as I have Bilstein/eibach kit, that is, hard susp, the lack of front ARB couldnt be fully necesary to keep the cars riding security.

-About induction kit...
7-Has anyone the refence/s of the Dynatwist induction kit for the 1.8T (I´m not looking anyone, eh bill :P?)

-Last subjet. Here in Spain during the year ´99 there was a Seat Ibiza Cup, and the cars bought for this end came with a pack supplied by Seat and (I think, developed by Seat Sport) and one of the parts of this "pack" for the seat ibiza copa was an "selflocking" diferential. I´m trying to contact with Seat Sport and the Seat dealer in order to know the price. Any one else knows any brand that develops "selflocking" diferentials for the 1.8T? Someone has on his firm something like Quaife or Qualife (that is OEM on the RS I think) does really exists?...

Thanks to everybody and both hope you to understood me and regard of my poor English...

There are almost no Eibach kits available to buy. There are no ARB kits for the Ibiza in stock. You can buy a Golf2 kit and a Polo 4 kit but you will be wasting money. Also, there are probably none of these kits available now.

Polo kit is not enough as you will only be able to fit a rear ARB. You can buy the Polo ARB kit and the Golf2 Neuspeed front ARB.

A thinner ARB seems to be a backward step - I personally wouldn't bother.

The ARB will not affect your ride. Adjust your damping pressure if this is too hard. It's job is to keep the car from rolling or listing too much, well control this actually. If you rely on your dampers to do this as well, then you're asking a lot of your Bilsteins.

The differential is gearbox specific rather than engine specific. Quaife in the UK do Limited Slip Diff's, approx UK£550 for an 02A gearbox. The Quaife kit is the best around and is used in many competition cars of different levels. Unless you have a highly tuned engine or do a lot of track time, you can do without it on the road IMO (unless you like full throttle get-aways from standstill lot).

First of all... Excellent English.... Makes me ashamed of being able to (barely speak and write it myself :p)

Try www.greenfilters.com directly and search by model car. You will see all thats available, including Dynatwist. On line purchasing is also posisble...
