Haha! Have a good read through EL's RR thread, his is one of my favourite LCRs on here *tips hat* ;)
 
Yesterday got on with fitting the DV relocation Kit as well as the de-restricted Boost Pipe :dance:

Big help from my brother as he did most of it :lol:

Also while at it also removed most of the crap surrounding the N249 valve and just left the block

Good going mate. Hows it sounding/going?

Sounds so nice , the DV is slightly louder and prob more noticeable , but love the Turbo whistle sound much more and can hear it so well (im sure its louder outside but right now noone else has driven it for me haha)

and everything seems pretty good for me , still need some spare time to fit just 1 pipe to the mani as right now is still got a connector in the middle.
 
* No More Modifications till after Winter *

After Winter Prio List (More to be added as come across them)

Front Wheel Bearing(un-sure which side)

Some Future Updates/Planning (after winter)

Badger5 TIP (mk2 Version)
Jabba Heatshield and Induction Kit (not sure which was maybe thinking the Jabba Kit, Filter any good?)
Alloys Refurbed (Still undecided on colour, but looking like anthracite)
Front Bumper Re-Spray (Bonnet and Wings blended in??)
All Grille inserts, Seat Badges, front surround and Cupra R Splitter done in anthracite
 
Jetex filter is pretty common and works very well - Badger5 will sort you out for one of those if you're getting his TIP too ;)
 
The Badger Tip seems better ? the new version

do you guys know whats comes with the Jabba Heat shield inducton kit ? what filter is it? (its red thats why i would get it)

http://www.jabbasport.com/store/index.php?app=gbu0&ns=prodshow&ref=JSIKLEONCR this kit ?

IIRC the v2 Badger5 TIP is supposed to be better than the SFS, yes - but whether or not it's enough better to justify the extra is up to you. The difficulty is that most people won't buy (or borrow) one of each and log them both on the same car, so direct comparisons are difficult.

If I remember right the filter that Jabba ship with their heatshield is now K+N. There have been reports of the oil on those clogging up MAFs, which kills them, partly why Jetex are more popular on here. You can buy the Jabba heatshield separately, that's what I did - think it worked out about £90 once VAT and delivery were added - give them a call.

Well thats a reason i can understand if you think one looks better.Im going SFS(got the badger5 already) because its cheaper and you get better colours. But if it was because apparently it gives you 0.00002 more airflow or some crap like that id be wondering.

I always thought jetex was blue filters but they might have changed? K&Ns are redish, mines had one and did few thousand miles with it on, no problems and the dreaded split-R valve
