LawrieIbizaMk4's Ibiza Cupra TDi *Coilovers!*

[Stuiemc]

Managed to get home this weekend so not even been in the house yet and fitted the strut brace going to tackle the rarb tomorrow after giving it a lick of hammerite

Could you be a massive help and tell me where you got the Ali boost pipe from the one running to the cooler from the red 45deg?

Cheers

Comes standard on the Cupra mate, I polished mine up though

What a difference the brace makes! Feels much better round corners, nice and tight feeling

not as much difference as the arb will make.
that filter looks strange not seen one like that before.

Rarb is a mahoosive difference!

Do you think I could use this with my PD130 with a SS FMIC and forge pipes?

It's an apiro one, not the best but its only on to bide time just now anyway can't wait to get the arb on and hammer it round some corners lol!

Should be able to mate, I think forge make a polished Ali one anyway do they not? Are you planning on doing egr delete while you're at it?

Yeah they do just they say it only fits cupras but a duno how? Only reason a can think of is if the standard PD130 boost pipes have a smaller bore but shouldn't matter if am putting a SS cooler on. Yeah a would be is the 45deg 51mm?

 

[lawrieIbizaMk4]

Don't think the bores different, should be 60mm. I think the forge pipe only fits fmic but don't quote me on that, get in touch with them and they'll sort you out

 

[lawrieIbizaMk4]

Heading out to install the rarb just now woohoo!

 

[ScottHmk4]

you managed it alright?

 

[lawrieIbizaMk4]

Just finished, went on fine

Now to test drive it

 

[lawrieIbizaMk4]

Feels more responsive and the rear feels a lot more planted. Can't wait to get it on a dry road now

 

[phillpotts92]

Just to rub it in its sunny with no clouds in Bristol, sunglasses and tshirt weather lol

Stiffest setting too, good work. RARB makes so much difference!

yup was going to go medium but thouht i might as well go all the way loving the difference so far, cant get over how much more responsve it feels! rear strut brace is next on the list i think as well as rear top bushes

Not sure if you will feel any difference with a rear strut brace. Subtle stiffness maybe.
