Its running 206bhp and 222.7 ibs of torque

JKM stage 1 remap, full cat-back scorpion system, bailey DV, just put a new AFM on it as the old one was knackered, new falken tyres put on last week, also i've spaced the rear wheels 20mm.

Lowered 35mm and leon cupra R splitter. HID Kit is on its way along with a FMIC to hopefully pop the torque up to 230ibs.

Pics.....









Thoughts? I love it. 5th gear for overtaking all the way!

the exhaust is a lot better in the flesh beleive me. i was going to change it to a supersprint with an oval but the scorpion sounds ace and looks good when you actually see it.

IMI is a stage 3 kit for the cupra really. (might be an IMH i cant remember)

But the point is you can push 350 - 400bhp reliably Involves a big garrett turbo, Bigger FMIC and bigger 500cc injectors and intake pipes for turbo


Woop.

Oh and im spraying my alloys gunmetal grey to match the darker inserts in my lights, i actually keep the wheels dirty as i think the look tacky clean.

i was going to go for the KO4 as apparently its simpler.

and yeh IHI.

Well i'll need some hoses and brackets for my FMIC.


Im getting a Universal Intercooler 650 mm x 223 mm x 80 mm from awesome gti , a bit like danny's as i like the look, and with the torque he's pushing out must help a bit.
