About the best K1 i've layed eyes on mate..  :congrats:  :wink:
I take it you boys are waiting forever for the Milltek's too then?  :grin: My mate is waiting for his direct from Milltek for his S3. Only he was told the 19th..  :sad1: He's pulling his hair out as he has just had his Pump fitted along with the Dbilas and is desperate to get the Stage 2+ code added. Just waiting on the Milltek Cat-back, as he already has the DP sat at home waiting...
Are you boys getting any clutch problems on the Cupra's? As I know my mates gets slight slip since he got Stage 1 added, more so from the DM flywheel than actual clutch itself from what I understand. Does the Cupra have the same DM flywheel I take it?  Just hope it doesn't play up even more when the Stage 2+ is added. Although the power delivery is A LOT smoother since the pump has been fitted I have to say..

Oh and one last thing, do as Hurdy says and get these Cupra's down the Pod. Be interesting to see how they fair against us Ed30 boys..  :P :signLOL:

Cheers mate :)

Cant give away which downpipes and de cats we are going for but I can guarantee they are same if not better than milltek :P its definitely working out over £300 cheaper he-he

So far I have had only a small amount of clutch slip, this was in 3rd gear when flooring it round a bend with my foot slightly on the clutch so I’m not too worried about it just yet!

New clutch is on the cards soon! And the cupras do have the same DM flywheel yeah, roll on stage 3 single mass rated to 450 ft lbs!

As for 1/4mile ETs... well I’m sure at the moment I could break into the 13.4s maybe even challenge for lower.

But until I have the DIFF and done the anti lift kit (WALK) and some of the other suspension mods I don’t think i will try.

3rd gear pulls are the best for me at the moment, 30-80 in no time at all!

I am on the Santa pod database ready to challenge this years FWD times, so watch out, ill be there soon


Have you ran before than bud? When you say Santa Pod website, do you mean the Castrol Challenge? Will certainly keep an eye out for ya next year, may even line up next to you, ya never know...  :party: :grin: As for Diffs and W.A.L.K kits... Pah, standard suspension all the way..  :signLOL: That's only because i'm not aloud to go for uprated though..  :ashamed:
Know what you mean about rolling starts though bud, they are the way forward. You should try the 30-130mph day that MLR do next year. I had a right blast last year.. Even if I did feel like I had brought a knife to a gun fight..  :scared: :grin:

No Millies for us. Everyone has milltek so we decided to go a different route, plus the milly is rather pricey.

I think wayne mention his clutch slipping, but mine seems to be ok so far, but I have covered less mileage than him.

Now that your mate has the pump he can get the stage 2 plus software loaded to take advantage of the pump!

Im hoping to get down the pod on the 31st of this month. Last time I went the car was still standard.

Once you get Full TBE you will love the way it spools up at just under 2k and will keep going all the way to the limiter. Mid range poke is awesome.
