Awesome mate. From alot of the feedback I have gotten on these diffs the real place you will notice it working is in the corners ona track or on the road with some spirited driving lol.

Right, so after discovering that ET42 offset is NO GOOD for the cupra with my lovely LM REPS after fitting new pads and discs I had to fit spacers. So ordered up the FK hubentric spacers, 10mm front and 15mm rear buuuuuuut I just don't feel confident behind the wheel as there is a small shake coming through the steering wheel which I believe is caused by the wheels being so much further out, could be wrong and could just be imagining it. SO, I have ordered up a set of TD IMOLAS in matt carbon 18" x 8J with an ET 35 offset which will clear the calipers on the front comfortably. Naturally I will sell on the LM reps and the spacers to recoup some of the money. Pics to follow once I get them all fitted but I think they is gonna look da shiiiiiiiizzzzzzz!!!!!
Thanks mate, I have come up against a wall as sadly the company is refusing to deliver the wheels to work. I have cancelled the order so the wheel hunt continues for me :-(
Right the march towards stage 2+ continues. New wheels ordered, RS4 valve arrived today and iridium plugs arrived too and collecting itg tomorrow. So that's all items ready for the conversion apart from the wheels which will take 2-3 weeks to arrive from Germany!!!!! Long wait!!!!
Just thought I would show the wheels I am getting as they are definately on their way now..........
Thoughts?

there is always a first time for me to screw up buddy........... but the Leon I saw them on looked awesome.
Jas decided to hog the limelight on Tuesday night
yikes!!!!! You showing the pic with my missing jack cover.... hehehehehehe. I was told to park there so was NOT stealing the lime light hahahahaha. By the way, not getting the new wheels anymore either sadly. Maybe at a later stage. Was good seeing you though.
So I fitted the ITG kit today. Now the kit I bought off another forum turned out to be a K03 one so I bought the blow off nipple thingy to fix this myself. Did all the work and realised I made the damn hole for the nipple on the wrong side of the pipe. Still works but I am not happy so will see if I can get a replacement pipe and swap it out at some point. Will be fitting my twintercooler tomorrow hopefully.
Heavens but it sounds amazing!!!
