Hi!
I've just got myself a 2014 1.4tsi (140bhp) Leon FR. I've noticed that the engine bay get very, very hot! So hot that I can barely touch the bonnet stand after a drive. Firstly, is this normal?? The gauges I can check in the car are all reading fine (water sits at 90 and oil temp is low 90's).
I love the induction noise you get with an induction kit. I've seen the MST ones, my preference would be the open box one just to get more noise but I can't see it being effective given how hot the bay gets? I don't want to spend a lot of money on the closed box if I can't hear it?
Anyone got experience with both and can comment on heat soak and noise?
