Saw this Stage III kit for the 225 based on the new IHI VF37
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/8717/vf37.jpg"></center><p>Sorry for the pic quality, it was taken with my cell phone camera. You can only see the exhaust manifold and turbocharger, but the car barely seen at the right (Seat Leon Cupra R with the 225 variant of the 1.8T engine) had the whole package installed. It comprised of the IHI VF3 7and the exhaust manifold as seen at the pic, a FMIC, all intake and pressure piping, a Turbosmart DV, strengthened engine internals (JE pistons, Pauter piston rods), gas-flowed head with multi-angle job at the valves, Schrick camshafts, new intake manifold, new injectors, uprated clutch and pressure disk, Fidanza flywheel, and probably more... The result was 450bhp and more than 50kgm of torque. The same setup with the IHI VF34 gave 420bhp but less lag.
I wouldn't dare ask the price.
