That just might be the worst video I've ever seen. I might have to sign into yootoob to give it a thumbs down...

  :happy2:  I didn't think it was too bad.  I've definitely seen worse.

you mean? I could only hear the car and not see it (apart from the bit on the dyno)

Keith if you go to stage 2 with a 10 plate cupra r do you get the switch ability?
Also is a downpipe with sportscat and a carbonio enough for stage 2?

I wouldnt bother with the Carbonio Kev.  I know you're not keen on the noise but the carbonio did naff all for mine.  Did look lovely though...

We tested it with good results.  Nothing that set the world on fire but an honest 12 or so.

However, the Stage III comes with a different induction which consists of a 3" carbon fiber tube that leads down to the lower bumper grille with a K&N style filter attached.

The best option though, imo, is to buy a CI100020 which is the induction kit for the 2.0 TSI as it truly makes really great power in all testing conditions.  A CI100020 plugs directly into the induction hose that comes off the maf housing supplied with the Stage III.

I'm sorry but I would need to check the ECU part number to make sure EMCS is available for your car.  Sometimes same model years have different ECU's.  If you have a VCDS or could pop in to an APR dealer we can check in short order.

For Stage II, yes sir, next step is the HPFP for Stage II+   :driver:
I was down to see Greg last week and now wonder if I should have gone stage 2.
Have you any dealers planned for Scotland yet?
I have vcds and have a copy of my ecu info what numbers do you need?
