07 Chrono Cupra Build

[blair27]

Hi folks!

Hope all is well, so I decided that I would start a little build thread for my Cupra! So bought the car back in January this year, and what can I say?! I am in love! So as I am deciding to go back and get my degree, I am not putting this beast through the daily round mile trek of 50miles! So a little diesel will be a daily driver! Meaning this thing can be a little weekend/track toy!

So far it's pretty standard!

Current mods:
Neuspeed P-Flow Induction kit
Milltek Cat back
Triple R splitter

So pretty basic!

The plans for May next year are as follows:

-Full service inc- Iradium Spark Plugs, Better quality oil
-pre-cat removal
-Stage 1+ R-Tech
-Coilovers (Thinking HR, but if anyone has any recommendations?)
-Older RS6 Alloys for road use and standard alloys for track
-Pads and brake fluid (Fereodo DS2500 pads, Motul Brake fluid)

If anyone has advice or other mods I should make would love to hear everyone's opinion!

Then looking to go stage 2/2+ in the following years!

Glad to be able to have a car I can probably get stuck into! Love to hear your guys thoughts! Will get photos up shortly!

Thanks!

Gave her a good wash and polish today in this Scottish sunshine!

Here's a few photos of the car :






Engine bay got a little clean! Although I definitely want to spray a few pieces!

Little update:

Car goes in for a service next week, new cam follower, NGK BKR 7 Plugs, filters and Miller 10w/50 oil.

Also booked her in to get a custom 3" Down pipe with Decat in August by Stainless creations!

Hopefully pick up the auto tech fuel pump internals in the coming months and get her down to R-Tech for a Stage 2!
