Custom Coded, Forge valve and air filter fitted!

[chughes163]

Hi guys,

Got the Leon Cupra R custom-coded on tues and on wed fitted forge valve and air filter.

What a difference!

Unfortunately its been raining pretty bad the last 2 days but today is stunning. Took my mates out in it last night and we found that its sooo eager in every gear. Also on a very quiet bit of road found that when you hit 100mph it seems to 'open up' even more.

Very impressed with the results soo far. One thing though, the inlet pipe came off the other day - have used 2 jubilee clips to keep it in place now...but was wondering if there is anything better to use?

Thanks for all the great advice on here too - much appreciated

Good to hear your happy with your car

Looks like you've got the modding bug

I used to have RS Turbo with high boost, and I used some hose clips which had an addittional band inside the outer clip band which alegedly provided equal pressure around the hose to stop it comming off under high boost.

Never had any hoses ever come off so i guess they must work, i just cannot remember where i got them from, possibly demon tweeks, or Amber performance....

Ok, I'm just too good, Demon Tweeks do them

Is the inlet pipe popping off a common problem after these mods?

Mine seems ok, time will tell i guess?

 

[chughes163]

What forge dv you got,007p or split r

 

[chughes163]

Yea the 007P - the Wooshing noise isnt as loud as I would have liked but its definitely improved the performance/response

I would also look into getting an uprated tip as after remaps the standars tend to buckle and colapse

 

[chughes163]

Hi

Sorry im not mechanically minded! whats a tip?

"turbo inlet pipe"
its the pipe that goes from your air intake to your turbo
Its the part i believe your talking about
