Hi All,

From King's Lynn, Norfolk

I Bought a 2003 Leon Cupra about 6 weeks ago so thought I'd join up!

The car was a friends whom has owned it for over 9 odd years and as his mechanic I've worked on at least 90% of it!

Spec so far:

  • Cupra Front Bumper, center opened up for flow to intercooler
  • Compomotive MO6 18" Gloss Black
  • KW Street Sports struts and springs
  • Fully poly bushed
  • Eibach Anti Roll bars front and rear
  • Cupra R Brembos, braided lines with Badger 5 2 piece discs, ds2500 pads
  • Rear EBC Ultimax black discs, EBC Red Stuff pads
  • Forge Front mount intercooler with full hose set
  • Forge TIP
  • Forge 007 DV
  • Green Cotton cone filter
  • Oil catch tank
  • 3" downpipe with sports cat, custom cat back solo silencer
  • Battery relocated to spare wheel well
  • TT 225 Clutch kit
  • S3 front upper and lower braces
  • Rear brace
  • Cobra Imola Pro bucket seats :love: + CG lock
  • Custom map by Jabbasport and producing 237bhp and 299lbs ft torque

Over last 9 odd years it's anal level servicing including a new Genuine VAG turbo, manilfold and complete cylinder head rebuild!

My plans are to use it as work transport whilst slipping in as many track days as I can afford!
I'd like to swap out the tyres for some semi slicks or high end rubber, possibly a hybrid turbo, maybe loose the interior? I'm not 100%!

My car ownership has varied at 40+ in the last 12 years, only note worthy ones are 2x Renault Megane 225's, 2x Honda Accord Type R's and a beastly Landrover!


Anyway that's my essay over and out! :p

My brother's got a Cr170 Leon Fr currently JMC , with a tuning box it's nearly on par speed wise with my Cupra! Nice and gutsy!

Yeah the 170 just isn't quite enough, just needs that little extra , I would like it to be 300 bhp lol but I still need the mpg in the 40s lol

Want it to stand out! Dont earn a fortune so something reasonable dont care about improving performace just appearance at the moment
