Well, I've heard that a modded Cupra, when it gets all it's power down on the tarmacadam road, is so fast that it actually stops the world from rotating for about 1 second.

Common knowledge, that.

mk1 leon cupra chassis is a bit rubbish though.

Mines running 330bhp and 357lbft of torque now.

Not bad for a mapped car thats stock apart from the fuel pump internals

Is it true that the RS has absolutely no bottom end?? People have said that compared to a modded St they are a bit of a let down
