Leon MK2 Stage 2+

[shnazzle]

Aside from that, Toyos are a pretty damn soft compound so I'd expect to go through them in a few thousand miles on a heavy car like the Leon
Also found them to be mediocre in rain. But that's on a different car. Might be different on Leon

That's not very hard though
How long did they last? And how were they in wet?
They are soft, so in theory they shouldn't be great in wet

I got a SEAT FR TFSI 2.0 2008
I currently have full BSH mounts.
Thinking on going stage 2 in the next month or so. but i hate the vibration of the cabin.
How much do i stand to lose if I go back to OEM engine Mounts and just keep the torque mount ?

Thanks.

Hi Mate,

We installed the REVO pendulum and dog bone mounts on the Cupra when we went to stage 2+ the difference in handling was that car would no longer bob up and down under hard acceleration through the gears, it really helped to keep the front wheels planted down on the road better. If you can I would highly recommend fitting all three mounts.

If you do go stage 2, we have a full exhaust system up for grabs, full Milltek 3" with ATP Turbo 3" downpipe. We only had the system fitted for 6 months and have prob only done about 2k miles on it. We had to replace all the parts for a custom system when we did the AWD conversion. The parts are just sitting on a shelf and would be good to get them sold off at a good price, will help you save some cash with your build.

If yourself or anyone else is interested, please let us know.

I'd highly recommend speaking with Andy from Autotechnica to do the works, his rates are competitive and will do an awesome job on your ride!

If any of you are going to GTI International this year, Andy and the team will be there at the Autotechnica trade stand where our project Cupra Kung Fu will be on display.

All the best

Hello again, I already have all 3 mounts fitted.
I am just not so happy about the vibrations. so I am thinking on removing the gearbox mount and the Engine mount and returning back to OEM.

After doing that I was wondering if there will be any downsides when i do stage 2
