Shifter bushings planned for when the box comes off / diff fitted.  I bought them about 2 years ago but they didnt end up getting fitted.

If you do them please write a report, Mike.  :wink:

Might be a few spare sets going  :wink:

For those familiar with my Cupspoiler splitter....

Im wanting it Wrapped, Dipped or Painted.


Cant decide; 

Carbon wrap (Would match Seat badge), Carbon dip, Im also thinking WTP dip gloss black with red splatter / straw painting effect on it to match my plan for spare Seat badge I have.  Or paint gloss black to match wheels, pillars, roof etc or emocion red to match main body of the car....

Decisions  :scared:

Thanks Shane.  Ive always like the Mk3 (i think) CupraR.  One on O.Zs and a big turbo would be  :party:

Any thoughts on the splitter?

Nipped upto RS Tuning to get a power graph as it comes on early and very hard

Peaked at 25psi before and goes right off the (25psi) now  :scared:





Really want to get some logs done.  Don't get me wrong the car is certainly faster but 'surge' and '2bar'was mentioned several times by the dyno operator.  :scared:

Dont worry Mike the guy at RS tuning on our last rr day there couldnt tell us enough how good his maps are and how much surge is on my Revo map and everyone elses :stupid:

Basically his maps are the best thing since sliced bread and just wanted you to put one of his maps on :indifferent:

I got that impression and took it with a pinch of salt. I wanted to go to one of a few (closer) DD rollers outside the vag tuning circles but they were booked up
