Im Andrew, Im Administrator for LeonOC.com and TDISport.com, Browsing these forums mainly interested in the Not so big brake kits


Thought id post up a thread on here,i know its not a MK5 Golf but thought some of you might like to see how us Spanish Amigo's do things. Ive gathered up loads of pictures to make it a smaller thread than on other Forums

Bought this 30th December 2009 (My Birthday)

So whats the story? Im a big BTCC/WTCC Fan, my car got its inspiration from the TDI Cars used in BTCC and WTCC by SEAT Sport.

Car was originally Tuned by JBS/Custom Code running the WILD DPF Delete, But has since been Retuned by Shark Performance, Got 3 maps which are switchable via STS.

Smart looking motor, I like that  :happy2:

I'm impressed with a roaded' 228hp. How's it drive now compared to standard - how much sharper is the torque response out of interest?
Looking at this engine with similar mods as a next buy  :happy2:

Cheers all

The Stage2+ 228 Map is far to smokey for road use, its for 1/4 Mile only, The stage 2 is smokey aswell.
