Well the Corsa is going this week, and I seen this...





Seat Leon 1.8t

- Miltek cat-back exhaust with 4" tail pipe.
- RamAir Cold air induction kit.
- Forge FMCL007P Dump Valve.
- Aero front wipers.
- Honda S2000 aerial.
- Cupra R front splitter.
- Double gauge pod with boost and oil temp gauges.
- Revo re-map to around 220bhp.

Thoughts? Anything I need to look out for in these?

Very nice

Common VAG problems include Door Locks not working properly (check this by double locking the car of when you drive off and the doors lock, see if any locks pop back up) and dodgy instrument clusters

Not sure, probably, its getting the standard back in.

Plans: HIDs, de-wiper, then wait for spring and mayb lower 40mm and some rs6 alloys. We will see

Dont think the Leon Cupra comes in a 3 door.

Nope, just 5 door. Its not the sort of car you notice it on though.

I think a Cupra R front bumper should be on the list of mods too. I really don't like the Cupra bumper.

We will see what happens, dont have the chash to do anything major till spring

Tbh not done alot of reading up yet either, once I get in about the forums will probably see more things I want to do, and will probably change everything.

If there was one thing I learned from owning the Corsa... Try not to plan anything
