Tfsi Mikes Money Pit :: AKS built Cupra :: TTE420 :: Rtech Tuned

Shaun M keep your eyes peeled. I sorely want them 

[Bernhard30]

There will be £2k+ worth of carbon seats / mounts / harnesses getting listed soon for around £1100 I would sell my nuts for them but don't think I'm gonna be able to afford them 

They're one of the major things left on my wish list.  I'd like Alex to fit the Nortech turbo kit to mine or at least a hybrid Ko4

Then I'd be happy to say it's finished 

Mike,
Would you stay FWD if you went for the Nortech kit? Or do the Haldex conversion..
Properly tempted but wondered if Nortech and FWD would be just plain stupid..no matter how linear the mapping and power delivery.
Those upcoming seats sound tasty..you only live once !!

Im sure with the amount of money invested so far you could have purchased a 911 turbo, had 500bhp and 4wd as std 
It is an impressive car and one of the best on this forum by far

New AKS rear heatshield



Cold air feed re-fitted



Revo shield modified & fitted properly. It isn't a straightforward fit as I've had quite a bit of gubbins removed that the shield normally bolts to.

Had cambelt done & sent off the steering wheel for re trimming.

Alex hasn't had chance to make the throttle body pipe so that can wait till next time.

I see you have the normal painted REVO intake fitted, when i get my "Xtra" racing REVO intake the heatshield is made redundant 
Are you still APR Mike?

It's supposed to be a cam coated one Jake? Why do you say that?

sorry just teasing couldn't see it was the camcoated one, which is the racing version.
 I have just raised the bar as i pursuaded REVO to do an "Xtra" racing version for me

But the price Jake!!!!  Ceramic coating would easily cost £60 extra over the camcoat.

Nice mike,alot of people are going for this intake lately(including me next month) @ Aks tuning
So the rear heat shield is an extra to buy?

I know Alex, just call me the Danish TFSI Mike, a magpie in the making 
Seriously, i can see the idea as every time i drive and make a stop, the Polar FIS shows me the raise in the intake temp, and it takes such a long time to drop so i hope this will assist me in reaching the normal app. 6 degress celsius above ambient faster, especially doing the track days.
Also i like one offs, or close to it

The REVO intake is by far the best flowing intake for the 2,0 TFSI on the market at present, so a wise choice running one
