induction kits, dump valves (yes again !)

[danny20vt]

whats so funny about that

Sorry, serious mode now, no, the fluttering noise is your turbo stalling(I think) therefore coming to a more abrupt halt than if it had a dv hence increased turbo wear and lag.

yeah i know they wear faster but like say the td05 can take it all day long no probs just was not sure cheers for the reply back tho

no that was on my last car just using that as a example by the look of it that would be mental to fit it in

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

would that be possible? if so why not try it?

 

[HoOpS78]

way to much work really not had alook into making the lc go faster but sure there is a better uprated turbo off the self

 

[devin13]

what car you got? lc or lcr?

 

[HoOpS78]

lc wish i had held out for the r tho is there much to change to get it to the r,s power tho

Read some of the Stage 2 remap requirements. I think Stage 2 puts it around stock Cupra R power.

Something along the lines of aftermarket exhaust, improved air filter and highly recommended to get a FMIC.

Will removing the soundproofing on a LCR still be ok with the heat even if it's been remapped?

See post 17

 

[will-225]

Yeah done that just wondering if it was the same on a lcr?

 

[LEE69]

Yes be fine.

 

[slim20vt]

yeah fine.................

If you want it louder than your current setup then an open filter will do that...if you want it louder than that still id recommend a turbosmart dualport.

I have the above setup (open cone and turbosmart) and its very loud! Bordering too loud for me and it's not even a full blow off valve! Sounds gooood though

 

[Lodgey180]

i have a ITG filter and a bailey dv30 on backwards and a remap.. i have took the rug off the bonnet and the back seal. i would say its on par with any cossie sound

 

[Smartiemnx]

This sounds like it will fit your needs perfectly

That is awesome.... lol

I'm trying an HKS filter on mine at the moment, and flip is it loud!

I tried a foam Piper X filter and it was quieter than the open cone cotton Neuspeed but I hear these foam mushroom HKS filters are pretty loud. I want to try one if for nothing other than the airfeed will feed right on to it, unlike conventional open cone filters where the end is solid rubber/metal...eg:

go for the green filter cone 200mm 80mm inlet to maf fitment.. around £47

For the same reason as above, i'd try one of the Twin Cone filters which has an opening in the centre for better air intake or the Powerflow which is the same but looks nicer.

Or one of the twister filters. Edit: Actually I just read on Demon Tweeks not to use this with Turbo cars so maybe stay away from it

That's Subaru isn't it? The engines and turbos on them seem to be quite forgiving and don't grumble with atmos DV's either, unlike their Mitsubishi rivals who hate them almost as much as the 1.8T.
