what have you done to your car today ?

[Manic172]

I have seen more and more Leon's about hemel hempstead. Couple nice red ones and a stunning black one too

After running the standard DV for a few days , can safely say its better than the forge. Theres way more crispy action going on with the OEM unit

Took mine out today with its new standard valve.
Definitely better than with the forge.
A lot quieter aswell.
So other than a slight note on idle and when flat out from the exhaust, its no different from standard.

I see you swapped in the 100-speed gearbox?

I was thinking of the land rover gearbox is more like a worn 02m

Only when I got old enough and understood more did I realise why my dad called them bullshit

Just ordered a forge charge pipe. Even though there's plenty of evidence to say they make no difference to performance. Minor ebay addiction me thinks...

So I’ve stripped all the sound matting out to dry it out - only started off changing the radio!

Question is whilst I’m there is it worth doing anything else? I know dyno mat is over rated but is it worth replacing the stock insulation with something better?
Or anything else to do whilst everything is out - apart from a clean and doing the door seals - I need new components front and rear anyway.

Ideal time if you're going loud stereo with amps and all that

It's like Monty Python in that part - intake or exhaust manifold?

African or European swallow?

If you've gone that far mate I'd throw in a selection of Silent Coat products, decent quality and cheaper than the bigger well known brands.
I've used it on several cars over the years and my Leon is almost completely covered in it.

She’s already got components up front and a sub in the boot but will do some tidying to the wiring.

Any recommendations on products and places to read about installation etc? Don’t really fancy putting all the old insulation back in but it’s fairly thick so guess it needs to?

Also anyone know the best adhesive to put the door seals back in with?

Even for the external weather strip and not the internal door plates?
