New Member From Cumbria
« on: July 01, 2013, 11:11:01 am »
Hi I'm new to the forum, joined this forum because a few seatcupra.net member mentioned it.

I'm a new owner of a 2.0 tfsi engine, a couple of month ago I bought myself a 2010 Seat Leon Cupra R. Lovely car, nicest car I've owned. Here is a couple of pics.





Previous owner had the car at stage 2, car was put back to standard when sold. My car didn't stay standard power for long last Wednesday I went down to Awesome Gti and had the stage 1 APR software installed, what a difference.

I've joined to look at other people's 2.0 tfsi and asked advice on mods to get my car to stage 2+, I've already made abit of a shopping list.

My next mod will be H&R lowering spring and spacers 10mm on front and 15mm on the rear to get the cars stance looking better.

Yeah I'll be there on the Sunday, for a look round not sure what time though. Is your Gti going to be on a club stand? I just had a look at your RR thread, I like the look of the plates where did you get them from?

Yeah I took them to the police... The cop come out wielding all the legal requirements hoping I was some sort of chav and then realised I knew the law and backed down and said they were legal... Take them to the police and get a note if you like...
