AndrewJB's MK2 Leon Cupra R "die gelbe Baron"

[Poverty]

Ahh right i get you.

I will be going stage 2 at Inters well happy greg is doing it there for me, what times you reckon we will be getting?

I wouldn't be expecting anything too exciting at inters in a fwd car, 14's probably.

 

[invisiblekid]

i know i would like it on mine as it would be subtle and look awesome.

Not sure subtle is how I'd describe it...

Andrew, can you recall which 42 Draft kit fitted the LCR? Putting one on my 08 Cupra in a couple of weeks. How much modding was required?

 

[AndrewJB]

i just bought a kit from Awesome, Modified it to fit my FR TDI and then fitted it to fit the LCR

 

[LC_15]

hey andrew which 42 draft design kit did you buy as awesome has 3 different sets?

options are like my08 my09 etc. - btw what does that mean, Model Year?

 

[AndrewJB]

i dont know tbh they only had one kit available at the time

I fitted it to my MY09 car, i had to File down the bushes slightly


I then removed the full gear linkage off my FR TDI, and fitted it back onto my MY10 LCR

 

[LC_15]

right ok ill have a look at them cheers buddy,

 

[LC_15]

hey mate that was you i saw at gti inters whilst i was gettin the stage 2 map uploaded?

 

[AndrewJB]

[LC_15]

Heard a rumour today...

Apparently my car was taken to Sha.rk performance for a Rolling Road day, and it only made 299bhp with APR Stage1 map, Sh.ark then ran a Sha.rk Stage1 ED30 and that made 318bhp


I can confirm my car has not been to a Sha.rk Rolling road day (My old FR TDI has), My car also has not been on any RR's yet.. So whoever started the rumour clearly needs to get a life (Suspected REVO fan boy trying to put APR down)

Im not bothered about this REVO vs APR Argument, im happy with the power i have, Im happy with the custom service i have received. i have been out Nibbles K1 (Stage2+ REVO) and that was fast as hell!


Just thought i would clear this up

 

[jc_boc]

You aint been in mine mate.......... hehehehe just kidding. I saw something about this on facebook. This whole revo apr thing is getting a little long in the tooth tbh.

 

[AndrewJB]

Its boring me now

Me and BIGG had this with Sha.rk vs Custard Code with the PD170

I chose APR on a number of things

1.When i first had my Ibiza 1.4TDI, all the local lads had APR 1.8T 225's, They never had anything bad to say about APR, they all made the switch to REVO, The same cant be said after they switched.
2. APR HQ is round the corner, Customer Service is going to be excellent as i can pop in when i want, You dont need to make appointments just drop in when you want

 

[t0m]

That's like me with AmD I just swing by when I feel and they sort me out everytime without fail.

Can't beat top customer service mate.

 

[AndrewJB]

Yeh its what makes or brakes a company

Sha.rk are the same, i could email them all the time and get a response

 

[AndrewJB]

Picture i found the other day

 

[HOLLANDMSGH]

wh00pwh00p
i like it!

 

[AndrewJB]

ive had my Dubmeister UK Legal pressed plates now for a number of years, The front one has seen better days, the black foil is covered in stone chips etc, So decided to replace the front one with a new one, this time ive gone for one with the Euro Band on it, originally i wanted to add an "E" for Espana but decided to keep it legal, still think it makes it look more Euro

Old

Old vs New

New

 

[AndrewJB]

Since ive had the car ive always moaned about how bad the exhaust looks, firstly its awfully black and secondly the tips are to small, no i am going to address the second issue at some point but thought i would address the first one this morning, So some Auto glym metal polish and a brillo was used

Before

1 Done

Both Done

There still not perfect, but they will do for now



Dave@ SERE also sent me a present, under seat storage box

 

[benj1989]

My god what a difference on the exhaust. Great job.

I didn't know the under storage box would fit with our seats.
How much are they and do they fit without any modifications?
