Nice one mate. Standard boost should be about 10psi.
Cheers, but the P-Torque should add a bit more right?
Yep. Mine was peaking to 17/18psi after my p-torque map but with a few other mods it now peaks at about 20psi
What type of Gauge is that? Im after a Boost and Oil Pressure gauge and havent found any I Like, the one you have lights up how I want

Cool, mine should be around the same then I hope. I'll have to get someone to stare at it while I floor it
Yea, thats one of the reasons I moved my head unit down and fitted the boost gauge higher up.
You have to look at the swept area of the wiper.... Find where the blade stops and measure 40mm into the screen, if there is anything in the way after that then it's a fail.
So you are saying the answer is to limit the sweep of the wiper.
Mk2 Leon owners must struggle as don't there wipers rest into the A pillar?Ric 2001
Need an ID-ten-T form
Seat dealer told me and I took them out. Then I told the tester afterwards and she said she would have failed it if the gauges where in.
You’re not even supposed to have anything dangling from the rear view mirror.
Some of you guys must get your cars motd by some right tools!
If a tester told me i couldnt have my 100 magic trees, fluffy dice, boxing gloves and mirror ball hanging from my mirror id tell him to right off

I took the switch out for controling the lights and just picked up a 12v feed and earth from the back of there, not exactly sure which wires. I used a voltmeter to find 12v that switched on with the ignition and used that. I didnt worry about overloading anything with two tiny LEDs and it has been completely fine (touch wood)
Not 100% sure how i did it but i wired parallel to my side lights so the LED's come on with the side lights! Did u manage to find a feed for ur vacum hose on the drivers side???
You dont use a vacum on a diesel, you plumb straight into the intercooler pipework and measure the presure from there
And no i went into the plastic pipe that runs down the drivers side of the engine but then i couldnt get the hose through into the car so had to go across the engine bay, into the passenger side and then back across the dash.
Works fine and was the only way i could see of doing it.

It's a very good question.
I think it depends alot on the vacuum hose diameter - different vacuums have different diameter hoses, however you'd imagine them all to be the same size!
Will you be taking the vacuum hose from, for example, a Dyson or a Henry Hoover?
The Vacuum cleaner itself can be recycled, as you simply purchase a new hose for it.
This guys great!
