new member looking for LCR and advice

[tommyd007]

Hi i'm new to the forum, looking to get myself an LCR. Ive had quite afew cars over the years and always liked the LCR. Im just after some buying advice, what to look out for etc when getting a leon. I preferably want one in red and im looking to get the bhp up to around 275 as ive read its simple? Just a remap, new dump valve, breather mods? If this is correct. And I wouldnt mind buying a car that has already had some of these mods already . Save me some money lol
Any help/advice welcome

Thanks
Tommy

could be tempted to sell mine!

my miles are lower and the engine has not got forged rods.
turbo is stock k04 too, all forge bits fitted etc

red 54 registered 05

What I should look out for when buying an cupra R? When should the cambelt be done?

 

[beastgtir]

Every 5 years or 40k I think?

You will be lucky to get 275bhp with just a remap mate...either that or happy rollers..
255 there about's is the norm..
