Is that the bottom half of a TIP?

 

[JamJay]

I have no idea but it says it works on the K04 (LCR then). Where does it go?

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

As far as I can see its the bottom half of a TIP so it bolts directly to the turbo.

 

[JamJay]

Must be for Cupra models then, LCR is one whole piece or rubber/silicone. Shame, it looks nice and shiney! Their inlet manifold looks nice too.

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

Yeah the standard LC one is in 2 bits

 

[JamJay]

Damn, I got excited about buying shiney parts for a minute. I've not seen any LCR bits like that

 

[andycupra]

yep, thats the intake onto the turbo
if you read the text you can see that this product was developed many years ago, and there are many all inone piece tips available now.

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

I wouldn't have thought you'd be able to fit that without removing the water pipe either, I could only just bent my silicon TIP to get it past the pipe.......and thats obviously not going to bend!

Unless thats so small you can feed it up from uderneith..

Thats unfortunate! i liked the sound of that, what and where could i get the Cupra R eqivalent?

does something like this really give 8hp?

If you work in marketing, anything will

i'd argue that a remap is best bang for buck, as opposed to what the advert for it says

Oh yes, which may these be? A friend of mine had a polished inlet manifold on his LCR, that looked loevely and I know you do the charge pipes
