mk1

I recently bought an 02 SDI Leon and am becoming frustrated by the lack of power! Is there anything I can do for a bit more? Or would fitting a turbo be a realistic option??

As per the title, I'm looking at getting a mk1 Leon 130 pd TDi, in may next year. I've done a fair bit of research on them and the only thing I find myself reasonbally unsure of, is how much of my hard earned cash to part with? Can anyone give me a rough idea of what I should be paying for...

Hi this is my first post here. Im getting older so a diesel would do nicely. I just bought a Seat Leon 2000 model TDI 110hp version. It has been nicely modified with original Cupra R styling, Audi RS4-II wheels and has been optimized to around 140hp. The colour is silver. It replaced my old...

Evening, 1) When wiring in an amp i understand that I need to connect a cable from the amp to the head unit. Where at the head unit does it connect? The standard ISO plugged straight into the HU so i cant see any loose cables?? 2) What speaker size do i need for my components? I've seen...

Hi guys, did a search but couldn't find what I was after... I know the standard Leon speakers are 16.5/17.0 cm, but what power rating are they? 40w??? 50w??? Anyone know? Also, they don't have cross overs as standard do they? Cheers, Ben

Hi all, I'll be honest with you, I know little about the MK2, the next generation engine (2.0T) or chassis so I hope you can help. I've been thinking long and hard about my next car or whether to keep my LCR and tune it hard but I haven't reached a decision, well not until now as the MK2...

my mk1 fr tdi has what feels like a very notchy gearchange. my car is a 150 fr tdi with a 6 speed box. Ive come from mondeo's and vectra's all pre 2001. The gearchanges on the vectra and mondeo is alot better than that of my leon. I know the leon is a mk4 golf but for a german car surely...

just quick one to see if its possible to put a 2.0TFSI engine in a Mk1 Leon Cupra R?

I have done a quick search but can't find an answer to my question. What is the best way of getting a performance upgrade on my leon? Will a different air filter do anything worthwhile? Will one of these 'black boxes' from ebay do anything but kick out lots of black smoke? What about...

Hello! Been lurking on here for a while now, only occasionally posting but now things are rolling a bit with this one i thought i'd put up a thread. Got this a while ago off of Boomhauer (brother ;]) to replace the dreadful clio that was my first car. Kept it standard and hacked it up and...

Hi folks. Been a few years since I've owned a Mk1 LCR but I picked up a clean low mileage 55 plate yesterday. Car is very clean but the owner used to steer with his palm so the steering wheel is shiny after only 22k miles. Can the LCR 225 steering wheel still be purchased from the...

Went to Kwik Fit with a slight rattle noise from my exhaust and they said I needed a new middle and back. Went ahead with it and it turned out much nosier than before. They said must be a defect with the new exhaust and fitted another. Only that was the same. They then said they will order one...

Well... since the departure of tonys Golf, i decided to buy one and do exactly the same as him and put a 2l 16v in it on bike carbs :D Got the car for a tidy sum and then me and Danny Guthrie set to work on transforming her... Pics of the car before the conversion:

Hi All, I've had my 2004 Leon Cupra MK1 for a month now and thought about time to introduce 'the grey baron' properly. I'm based in Bradford so looking forward to meeting up around the area and hopefully further afield. -Would be nice to see other modded cars for inspiration. The car is...

Does anyone know if it is possible to fit a leon cupra r 6 speed box to a mk4 ibiza cupra 1.8T? Think my box is on its way out and might give this a shot unless there is a major restriction.

Has anyone fitted mk1 lights to a mk2 arosa? Are they are straight swap or do they require re-wiring? Thanks :)
