DJHorace has gone one fitted to his spare gearbox on his MKII Leon Cupra but not sure if he has actually had a chance to get the box fitted. He might be the best one to ask.

cool thanks :happy2:

They havn't been out for the Mk5 for to long, so there wont be many reviews flying about. The lad in PVW has just had one fitted, they give it a glowing report, but you have to remember that they got there's free probably, and the company who fitted it also supplies them. :smiley:
-
yeah had heard about the pvw report but not read it yet and also considered the fact it might not be "unbiased" :signLOL:
-
i have just ordered one, should be on it's way from the states as we speak :happy2:
-
let me how you get on bud :happy2:
looking into getting a diff for july ish :popcornsoda:
-
Yeah I have one which I bought back in December and should have been fitted on to the car in Feb, but it will instead be fitted this coming Thursday along with a few other goodies :happy2:
-
sweet mate :smiley:
can you let me know what you think when its fitted :happy2: :party:
-
I wish a mag would do a head to head on these two diffs on identical cars. Need to know which one would work best for me!
-
Will do. I have no doubt it will transform the car, but as it will be fitted with the following, the car will be very different. The car already has a Modified Milltek TBE, Dbilas, KMD Pump, S3 Intercooler, Revo Stage 2+, Eibach Pro Street S Coilovers.
I will be getting a Whiteline Anti Lift Kit, BSH Engine Mounts, BSH Catch Can, Forge Short Shift, Autotech ARB's, Wavetrac, Sachs Clutch, RS4 valve, Uprated Plugs and possible new intake and diverter valve this coming Thursday. While the Diff will no doubt be the biggest improvement, I am looking forward to the whole package so to speak. Quite fancy some uprated brakes, and will need to re-fit my Pro Race 1.2 wheels, but I am hoping for the ability to use the power available more than anything, and hopefully this combo of stuff will do that :happy2:
-
I'll see you Thursday afternoon :happy2:

Cool - I was going to go for the Forge actuator but I think I will take my chance and leave it. They would need to take out the engine for that which isnt so much of a problem given all that is going to be done but Steve reckoned that in all the cars they have done, other than yours, the noise and flat spot was cured with the RS4 valve.
Will be good to see you nonetheless :)

nice list should make for a very capable car :driver: :happy2:
