90ahl Engine bay help (please)

[pickering]

Afternoon folks!
It’s pay day in approx 12 hours and I’m ready to spunk it all on the Leon like I don’t know any better...

here’s the crack: I’ve got an eBay special induction kit on at the minute and the pipe work is DREADFUL (I’ll include a picture). I’m looking at getting a ram air kit but what are my options for the pipes/hoses. I need something the n75 hose will fit into as well I think as I’d left that leading to no where previously.

Some extra points because I’m a new Leon owner:

- my back bumper has no space for an exhaust/cut out, which bumpers can I swap it out for that do? Is there a way to get two birds stoned at once and get the exhaust and rear bumper?

- what drop is everyone running on lowering springs? Saw there’s equal lengths and ones with 10mm differences

if I can pick someone’s brain with a similar motor that would honestly be the best!

thanks

Love it.
Wish i was young again.

Cupra r rear bumper has an exhaust cut out.

Just get a remap. Best you'll do to get power out of a 90hp lump.

Exactly that mate, trying my best to learn and enjoy, had a Ford KA for a year so at least that nightmare is over

rhino remaps got an offer on for 50% off so think ima take advantage of that

If you're lowering, get a spare sump for when, not if, you smash it.
Crap chinesium for £15 fleabay.

Back of the flywheel has two slots for accessing the two otherwise impossible to undo bolts.
I nearly died of apoplexy before I found this out.

I'm on my third sump, and mine's standard height.

Have a rummidge through the seat part numbers, you might find the bumper & exhaust that suits.

Look on eBay n you'll see a Leon Cupra rear bumper in the same colour as yours (check paint code to be sure) in Sheffield, not mine, just did a quick search

Lowering springs... I was using H&R which made it sit relatively low n was alright (I upgraded to coilovers was the only reason I'm not using them now). In use... take speed humps with care and you should be alright
