You don't mess around much, that's some serious list of parts you've got there to be fitted. Bignod will have a good match to his Cupra R. :grin:

I hope you can do some track time together to test your machines. :wink:

Welcome back Mike  :happy2:

Nice round of mods on the go there  :evilgrin:

I'm eyeing up the TTE420 also, is it just the 155 bar valve needed for the fuelling or do you have to do the LPFP as well?

Like a kid at Christmas atm. Trying not to badger Alex for updates!

I have a feeling the AKS Clutch pipe mod won't arrive in time but have my fingers crossed!

It's a stainless pipe kit that replaces the pipe that is prone to popping out in one or two places when using updated clutches.

Mine has never done it but I'm using a stiffer clutch this time so it's a precautionary/ future proof upgrade.

It's the same idea as the USP offering but developed and made in the Uk for AKS
