What diference would adding the Cupra R ecu actually make anyway?

Erm, If he's running a standard map(156) on his ECU he'll benefit from a 180bhp map from the Cupra R - i think anyway...Thats how i understand it.

 

[cupra44]

^^^^ thats how I understand it too, 24bhp gain

Porsche design 90's

 

[Glassy80]

They are 5 bolts tho right? Arent Cupra's 4 bolt wheels?

yeh, need hub converters to make them fit eg 5x108 to 4x100, available from H&R

Or remap standard, and get more again.

 

[cupra44]

Hub adapters, converts them from 4x100 - 5x130

I'll see how I get on with the R ecu first, Not bothered about it being really fast, but after driving a standard cupra for 2 years I would like a little more go, Thanks
