Cheers buddy I'm running 10mm front spacers and 15mm rear spacers. I'm not aware of the hubs making a difference. Might be worth sending someone like Phillc a pm and asking.

Good luck with yours, I'll try n keeP up the inspiration for you

Cheers Tim

Well as you can all see, my g/s are fluctuating like nobodies business. Can anyone confirm that this is down to a faulty N75 valve?

When driving the boost is constantly up and down all the time surging between about 14-18psi. (you can see this is the g/s)

 

[Deleted member 60700]

have you got a cupra r antiroll bar mate? i have aqquired another one whislt scrap yard hunting

 

[cupra-barn]

I havnt what's the difference just diameter and mounting points? Was looking at neuspeed ones hadn't looked at OE LCR ones

 

[Deleted member 60700]

mounts to subframe the same but the links go to the shocks not sure on diameter its at home i have powerflex bushes too that i took off mine when i superpro'd mine

 

[Phillc]

The OE LCR ARB is smaller than the LC so not worth it Barn, its the R32 front ARB you want.

 

[Deleted member 60700]

good to kno

 

[cupra-barn]

The OE LCR ARB is smaller than the LC so not worth it Barn, its the R32 front ARB you want.

Cheers for clearing that up Phill

Carry on waiting for a neuspeed then

 

[cupra-barn]

Blew a coil pack on the way to work today luckily I phoned my local and very helpful seat helperouta man (phillc) and he sorted me out a treat! (thanks Phill)

So after work i went to see Phill, got the parts i needed along with the N75 valve thats been faulty for quite a while.
Started my journey home only for the misfire to get extremely bad to the point of not being able to drive it so another call to Ronin225 and he came shooting over with vagcom and helped me sort it out (cheers Tim) so: Replaced coil pack
Replaced faulty N75 valve

Got in the car and drove with a big smile on my face. Thats my short story for the day lol

 

[Deleted member 60700]

what fault did the n75 give?my leon seems to stutter under boost was thinking about changing this bit lol

 

[cupra-barn]

The N75 kind of regulates the boost for example when mine was faulty it would peak at 22psi then drop to 18 then surge between 14psi and 20psi. It was literally a split second thing but would keep doing it.

Stuttering under load sounds more like a coil pack failing to me however I could be wrong.

 

[Deleted member 60700]

just had 4 new gen ones fitted, only seems to play up since having new turbo,but going to get a hybrid soon so will see if that helps lol
