kriso's 240bhp Ibiza Cupra

[kriso]

They are coping fine. The power delivery is smooth throughout the rev range, there is a noticeable pull when the turbo kicks in same as standard Cupra TDI but then it just keep pulling to the redline. I don't floor it in higher gears so clutch is treated well

I don't think the strut brace helps much but softer tyres do. I went from Toyo T1-R to Yokohama Parada Spec 2 and it has almost eliminated wheelspin in the dry. In the wet/ice they are useless and it will wheelspin in the first 4 gears, but now the roads are dry and warm they just work so well!

You still got the scangauge, Kris? I'm thinking of getting one.

Nah I sold that on and got the boost gauge instead..really the only useful thing it showed was the intake temp..most other things were available on the dash/trip computer and no boost pressure

There are some better gagues out there that show things like 1/4 mile times etc. which look good.

Ah, ok mate. What other gauges have you been looking at?

Liquid Gauge does some good stuff but a little expensive. There is another similar one, but I forget where I saw it now.
