The cupra FMIC is fitted
This was a big problem.The cupra egr seems to be a bit different so the tube didn't fit.I had to make from the new an old one one piece.
Finally got the tube fitted
Didn't know that there was so little space behind the FR bumper
I had to cut of many of the inside,even some fixingpoints of the grille.
The cap didn't fit anymore due to the foglamp is pushed to the front for the moment.I will solve this this weekend.

Will be my 3rd one i've fitted so should be piece of piss,
Bit unsure why you had a problem, nobody has mentioned this problem before, I know when CPU freak fitted his said it was a sstraight forward as anyhing, nobody mentioned EGR differing before, unless your parts man picked up wrong bits!!!

Owkee
Whell,the tube did fit but there are 2 extentions (don't know the right word for it) on the metal ring at the end of the tube where you lock the clip behind.Those extentions were at the wrong place at the cupra tube.
Dropped my car off at Forge on Monday as they are manufacturing the IC pipework to allow me to fit the factory Cupra FMIC. Spoke with them today and everythings is fine - will be picking it up Thursday. Forge have taken pictures of the install, so when I get hold of them I'll upload.
mine will be in the office tomorrow morning, so will fit saturday, Word on the bracket is 4-6 weeks, therefore gonna fabricate up another bracket mysellf like last time and then just change it over when the new one turns up.
Will test it up the strip on sunday at USC, can't wait, i just prey this sorts the bloody limp mode problem as i have a new intercooler sensor on the new pipework, believe hat is what is trigering limp mode all the time.
At bloody last, these cupra front mounts must be too bloody common now, thats why it takes ages to order it again, luckily Dave at IMG or crewe now has sorted me out big time on this.

Ant... Is your car going into limp mode at high revs??? my used to do because it was getting more boost than it was requesting,
yep thats it, Big boys toys said its the Boost sensor has gone, what happens is you get to high revs and the sensor detects no boost, then trigger s a boost leak warning and then hits limp, does it in both Remap mode and stock.
So need to wait till i got the new boost sensor on at the weekend.

orange said:. How much does the kit (just the Forge parts) cost?
Its not yet been decided whether they will provide the kit. Richard said if they do they will provide different kits for the 100 and 130s due to the different connections on the pipe/hoses. In all honesty, I would leave the pricing decisions to Richard, so if intersted give him a bell - all I can say is I'm very happy with the overall cost of my FMIC conversion
