Newbie. Leon Cupra TFSI 240

[Sandypark8]

Got my self a Leon Cupra 2.0 TFSI 240bhp.

Looking at exhausts , intakes , recirc valves etc.

What's the best catback? Looking st miltek or cobra ? Any others for same money which are better ?

Best induction kit for money?

Also is a blow off valve better or a recirc one ? Apparently blow off aren't to good at holding boost and these engines don't like them ??

Any info would be good guys!

Hi, i own a cupra aswell. From what ive found miltek is highly rated although i had a blueflame on my old mk3 ibiza cupra. Was very happy with it. CAI ive heard revo intake provides the most increase in airflow. Im going personally for a neuspeed as it is a cheaper option. And for diverter valves. Ive heard the newest revision OEM model will do fine. Think its revision 'R'. Or you could go with the good old forge diverter. Hope this helps.
Its all down to preferance really. This is what i would personally go for.

get the upgraded recirc valve for yours will be rubber one same as mine and just upgrading to new one has added extra power to mine,forget blowoff as recirc far more efficient especially on takeoff as power always there so no turbo lag.as for exhaust always go stainless as in long run lasts the life of car miltec are one of most popular

I've got a milltek catback on the cupra now. Was gonna buy the ram air intake maybe. Does the reirc valve make that much difference ?

if you have your origional valve by now seals will be leaking and yes it does make a considerable difference and soooo easy to replace as at front of engine and can be changed in less than 20 mins....just make sure you clean around it first..all you need is a t30 torque socket..and for less than 50 quid best thing you could do for engine...just ask for upgrade at either dealers or europarts...and then have some fun.....lol

Hey There,

i would recommend to upgrade your exisiting diverter valve with GFB`s DV+.

Also the latest OEM revision is a little bit leaky even when its brand new.

Just installed it and im very happy with it! The car is remapped and the valve is working correctly.

Good suggestion intox ..i suggest newbie check if get warranty with car and when runs out...as if on warranty can change to evised one for now and get better power no issue with warranty....or wait till warranty ran out and have a choice.....as both better than one on car now .....
