Thank you , I got the exhaust from Milltek and the diffuser direct from Seat (part number 1P0071061A )

Nice thanks. So i take it that the miltek exhaust for the cupra R can fit on a standard cupra? Was wondering about this for quite a while now

Yes the Cupra R exhaust fits straight on a Cupra the only thing you need is the rear diffuser.

Little update.. I’ve bought a 2nd set of wheels for the Leon, I have been after a set of ATC DTC’s for a couple of years but found them pretty hard to come across.

I will be sending them off for a colour change next week but still not 100% on what colour!!

Looking ace! Are your engine internals all stock with that power? I've been Looking at Revo's Stage 3 hardware list and it suggests pulling the boost or forging the engine.

Thank you. Yep all my internals are stock, I’d like to forge the engine but until it starts playing up i’ll keep the internals stock.

How's the LSD working for you? (not the drug LOL). I'm sitting at 370bhp and wheel spinning a lot in 1st, 2nd and 3rd... sometimes 4th. Really puts me off going for 400bhp.

Haha the LSD is amazing it’s a must IMO, I found the anti lift kit and pilot super sports really helped grip.

Very small update I’ve finally decided on a colour for my new wheels

2Forge Vs ATS

 

[Jairm88]

ATS DTC’s have been fitted!!

Also I’ve treated myself to a new daily Cupra 290
In dynamic Grey!! what a pair!!

Glad you managed to keep both. The MK2 a weekend car now?

I’m lucky that the Mrs has allowed me to have both lol, The Mk2 will be a pure financial drain now, I’m thinking of stripping it out and having a full weld in cage fitted.
