Yeah it is strange, shes on 84k now, whats up with your gearbox?
Just for those who are interested, I managed 196bhp before the milltek.
After, she managed 217bhp and 220ft lb.
Really wasn't expecting that much of a gain to be honest, but it does feel a hell of a lot better!

Not sure to be honest. There is play somewhere when changing gear, big knocking noise. Not sure if its the gearbox, clutch, flywheel or what. No performance issues over it though, just doesn't sound nice.
Whats the gap like between your exhaust and rear axle? I had a custom cat-back done and because the exhaust is too close to the axle it rattles like hell. Needing to raise the car up because of it.

Hmm thats a bit odd, might be something else like the shafts or linkage, maybe the dual mass? who knows....
The gap must be pretty tight, because when pulling away whilst turning left, you can hear it vibrate on the axle...but its fine at all other times.
Yeah they did cos I nearly ordered one and I actually test drove one!
I ended up buying a white fr for insurance reasons but they certainly make the mk4 cupra in white
I will check on Monday at work I'm pretty sure the only did black yellow red and grey in a Cupra
mine must of bin painted aftermarket because its cherry coke colour despite the fact it states in the handbook and in the boot that its Negro Inferi (cherry coke) colour lol, seat did do other colours just most people specced the normal colours cos i look all the time at ibiza's on eBay and don't find many in my colour or white
Candy white was standard on Facelifts, fact.
Anyway...Amber sidelights were from eBay.

Oh and just so you guys know, you can do a reg check for £9.99 for the cars history, includes colour changes...
New update:
The Cupra is now running 18psi of boost. With a couple tweaks here and there I should easily see over 230bhp on the dyno! (Dyno to come!)
Antilag and no lift shift all set up, runs like a dream!
Will post video shortly

Update time! Seeing as its been almost a year.
I never posted a video, so here is the 2-Step Launch Control and No-Lift-Shift.

New Headlights have been fitted with LED DRL's and Projectors (with xenon bulbs).
Other bits and bobs have been done along with a list of parts waiting to be fitted when I get round to it.
Picture time!
After cleaning the Cupra with my buddy, we decided to lower his FR some more.
Oh and fitted a Diesel Battery to the Cupra, it was overdue for a new battery, starting the car didn't sound great in the morning!
That's all for now, plenty more to come.
