i want my cupra to go faster

[dave1982]

hello i have just recently purchased aleon cupra the 180bhp version and i would like to ask if anyone can reccomend any mods other than re-map which i have got someone to do for me already i have heard about the ko4 hybrid turbo but find it hard to find any info about it so if anyone has any ideas they can reccomend i would appreciate it.
my problem is my brother has got a 205 with an mi16 engine in it and he is younger so i dont realy like the idea of my younger brother having a faster car than me lol well not faster but it does shift and i want to be leaving him behind if you see what i mean lol so any help will be good
cheers dave

If you've got £6,000 you can make it faster than most cars on the road see big turbo discussion thread

Mi16 in a fag packet is going to prove a problem to be honest - they're light and can be thrown around in a way the Leon can only dream of.

Better brakes and suspension might get you nearer but i would think that on power to weight he's going to walk all over you.

not really they are not as fast as you think i though he would walk all over me but once i had 4 people in my car he had 2 just him and his missis and they both weight about 12stone between them and he wasnt really going anywhere the 180bhp version off the cupra is very fast alot faster than what i thought and suprises alot of cars any other ideas
i had thought of a bigger turbo which will come soon but at first i wanna make a few lil changes to go faster lol

A simple remap will just transform the car.

You appear to have a decent amount of money to spend on mods - why didn't you buy a Cupra R?

i thought it was V power now??

 

[Punch IT!]

What about NOS ? lol

 

[dave1982]

the cupra r was about 10 grand and i couldnt be arsed to save up any more i was driving about in my mums old silver vectra that some one smashed in to so i had to put a green doors and a green side panel on it it was embarrasing lol

i am remapping it getting that done in the next few weeks and i heard it will improve the car alot

With a Custom-Code phase 1 you can see an increase to 205-210bhp and 230-235lb/ft with a very smooth torque and power curve while holding very good power at higher RPM.

The Custom-Code remap comes to £446.50
With the remap I would also recommend a Forge 007P diverter valve £85.00 and a Green Cotton panel filter £48.11

If you were to have all 3 done at the same time I might be able to sort out a free air filter for you

If you want to go for even more power you could look at the JBS Auto Designs turbo kits - We do all their mapping for the big turbo kits, they are fantastic pieces of quality and not only that they look like works of art

I hope this helps

Fair enough mate. I drove around in my missus's 1.4 Escort (which she had tastefully kitted out with cow print seat covers ) when I was saving for my Cupra R! Got strange looks from the guys at work!

Remap will transform the car.
