This is some impressive dedication to a sleeper build. Even the engine bay looks pretty stock if you don’t know what you’re looking at. You’d never expect this thing to have over 500 horsepower
FINALLY a real Information about HP this car has! No lies, just nice hardware mods and a fantastic ecu and tcu. You had cars on this channel with only 50hp less but running 4 seconds slower from 100-200kmh and having nearly the same weight. You knew something was wrong with the numbers the owners claimed..
Lots of owners mention the power without a dyno, they tell you what their tuner says. Like my stage 2 Fiesta ST, Pumaspeed claims up to 250 hp. Had it on the dyno and it resulted in 225 hp. So if I never had it on a dyno I would also say it has 250hp like these people. Basically if you never had the car on a dyno its better to say I dont know how much power it has.
Keep in mind though that the acceleration also depends on the power curve of the engine. A car can have 1000hp peak power near its maximum rev range, but will be slower than a car with way less power which has a clean and constant power delivery.
@@AutoTopnl get what ur saying bro but you should ask people to bring Dyno printout sheets, lotta waffle when asked what figures are, let's see some facts
Also a dead car, generic, with a 2l turbo engine like 99 percent of cars, also 520hp but puts down only 300 so whats the point, this car in the rain will spin it's wheels up untill 4th. It's also dull looking and probably is.
I like these kinds of reviews. I have a Mk8 GTI Clubsport with the EA888 engine. I wonder what kinds of upgrades/changes they will do to this car, and I am also fascinated by the overall upgradability of this engine as a whole. It's so fun to see what changes there have been with this engine. I would have even gotten the 2021 Leon CUPRA if there wasn't a lack of availability and a massive chip shortage by the time it was released...
@@reece005 Max is but Martin doesn't say a word. Max is the only topnl I watch. Sorry Martin but if you want an audience you must at least talk to them(us) 👍
That Cupra is crazy fast, would not surplice me if it's good for 200mph, did not think I would say that about a Leon. And considering it's FWD, in the dry it put it's power down ok, and a sleeper to boot.
I owned a Cupra with a LM440 Turbo and a build engine etc and it was crazy, I loved it. I wanted to upgrade it to an even bigger LM Turbo but then I selled it because I wanted to own a V8 before they die. But sometimes I miss this car so much, especially when I see this Video. Such a nice car and crazy sleeper!
What you said about the tyre, I had the 888r's on my Lotus s2 which is much lighter thanb this car and still when I drove it in the rain it never acted weird, never aquaplained or anything else, realy good tyre, even in the rain tbh.
you could put your grades in Portuguese too, and Portuguese is not the same as Spanish! Don't offend us, but they could do it. Great video, another great video!
From where i come cupras gapping gtrs and everything even one was chasing 812 superfast and crashed onto it with proper tune and bigger turbo its actually really fast car common here is pnp or bnp turbos tuned almost 500 to the wheels
It’s funny because I have a Leon CUPRA 280 mapped to 360 with a decent air intake, and it torque steers much more than this one. Mine is a manual though and I’m wondering whether that makes a difference ..
Tbh this Seat is very good . It looks so good and stylish . I would prefer it over any BMW . And that HP is very good . You can't even tell it flies that much !
I say this on every video but damn it 😂 YOU GOTTA TAKE IT OUT OF CUPRA MODE AND PUT IT BACK IN IF YOU START IN CUPRA! It defaults to comfort mode on the engine settings every time you switch ignition off then on!!
Yes, it does. The VW difflock is standard in all Cupra models and it makes fwd fast and daily usable even for 500+ HP. You have to activate 'ASR Off' Option for the best performance.
Light good flashing 2015 looks 👌 ✨️ 520 bhp faster than lambornghi hurricane 🌀 😀 and german s3 and mclearn see 👀 😀 excellent video sir upgrades on st 600 dw 😀 and new tited excellent anf new spolier and 4 exausts 2 9q2 2 9qq and beamer for lifetime food 😀 👏

GREAT 💪 More 100-200 Owner runs (also 6,6 - 6,8 DRAGY to prove it) of this CUPRA in our CHANNEL
We have to follow claimed power… Otherwise we need a dyno at the Autobahn 😅 But you are absolutely right!

520hp in a FWD car. absolute madlad, but a great sleeper build nonetheless! Kudos to the owner
It's got electronic limited slip differential.
@@CynicalBastard511 totally useless at that level of power.
LSD won't stop 500 hp on the front tires to slip.
++ Top Doge, I had 2018 Staged 2+ with around 460 hp (~400 whp) and it was killing my tires (including toyo888) until 80-90kmh
Amazing build that shows you that you dont need a supercar to have fun
And you don't need two cars or more 😉👍

@@swansmeister I dont care about looks when I have the performance
@@xXAlmdudlerXx If you can have both why not. Alpina b4s edition 99.
@@swansmeister True. But thats probably way more expensive.
I like how every autotopnl reviewer give every detail possible!
10:45 I paid for the whole speedometer so I'm gonna use it all
This hot hatch with its insane power output will eat super saloons, estates, coupes, convertibles and some supercars for breakfast.
The stock exterior is so nice and its better to have with this engine :)
That turbo whistle is beautiful

The way it pulled to 300 is insane for a VAG hatchback
its pretty standard times for stage 3 on them, stage 2 (stock turbo) makes around 7.8-8.1
Happy to see Max back doing the review! 😀🇳🇱
Yes max and Martin are awesome people who always keep us happy
@@reece005 Max is but Martin doesn't say a word. Max is the only topnl I watch. Sorry Martin but if you want an audience you must at least talk to them(us) 👍
Now this is a super nice racecar, quiet yet very powerful !
Very clean and good car!! Bravo!!
welcome back bro missed ya @Max...hoope u better
Finally Max doing reviev! Nice wheelspins btw
Now imagine... you driving M8 and cupra overtaking you 😄😄
The perfect sleeper!

What V8 do you own? Because I also drive a Cupra and I'm thinking about trading it for a V8 for the same reason as you!
Nice work on this Cupra!
Beast mode 💙🙏🏼🇬🇧
The best of 2022 for now
Best car on this channel
definition of sleeper
I have the same setup☺️✌🏻 Gerth sold me a LM440 through Kolbenkraft and I don’t regret buying it👑
Massive fan of sleepers i love it !
That's one nice sleeper
probably funniest thing to drive...... amazing
welcome back max
An Ideal sleeper car
Very impressive for a FWD car! 💪🏼
0 - 100 ... 10 seconds
100-200 ... *6 seconds*
Not really, i have same cupra but stage 2 with little over 400hp. Im doing 4.9s 0-100 on dragy.
@@krzeslobojowe6497 that's because you dont measure fwd cars on 0-100, you drive them for 100-200, 200-300 :)
Sleepers are fantastic. Nice vid Max
when will you test rimac nevera?
Amazing :D looks really fun to drive it :p
Suberb car this Leon! Love this godzilla power in quite a sheepy coloured but beautiful bodytrim
nice vid as always, are u feeling better max ?
Crazy Sleeper
Nic vid! 🔥 banger Tune 🫣🤯
you need to press the cupra mode button again for activating the sound when starting again .
Unfortunately when clicking driving modes whatever it says after starting engine is a lie, you have to click it again to activate that profile..
Very impressive indeed! Great car! 👍😁👍😁
What you said about the tyre, I had the 888r's on my Lotus s2 which is much lighter thanb this car and still when I drove it in the rain it never acted weird, never aquaplained or anything else, realy good tyre, even in the rain tbh.
200-300 faster in a cupra than in a m3 :))))
Very good car I can say
Its funny how this car looks like a family friendly but it is a 520hp car
I have a Leon 1.4tsi. What can be done to those? I have remapped it at now running 164ps.
300. In a C-segment car. Something nobody would have believed 20 years ago.
That really made me smile :DD
Amazing car!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
190mph seat Leon ,WOW.
Welcome back
AWD would be so much better, to use full power under 100 km/h without wheel spin. But this seems fun too.
Why you dont add on it a 4motion rear train-drive from Golf R
This thing is mad!
you could put your grades in Portuguese too, and Portuguese is not the same as Spanish! Don't offend us, but they could do it.
Great video, another great video!
And I thought my manual Cupra 280 being already prepped for stage 2 which will be ~400HP would be too much for FWD haha. Proper sleeper build!
Mad! Love it!👍
Irgendwo in Bielfeld mal gesehen, hätte nixht gedacht das der so viel Power hat
Also the engine en exhaust sounds great. Not a sound of only a turbo that is blowing.
build info & build cost would be super intereseting!
Haha! My kids S3 is 540hp on 93oct and its a blast, 600 on E85
Sounds sick 🔥🔥
From where i come cupras gapping gtrs and everything even one was chasing 812 superfast and crashed onto it with proper tune and bigger turbo its actually really fast car common here is pnp or bnp turbos tuned almost 500 to the wheels
But how long till it explodes?....
@@adams7405 if u push it above 2.2bar on stock internals i will
I do not love seat but this is beast !!
What a mega car👍
Doing such a sleeper is my dream

I love hot hatches!
BMWs destroyer :)))
Wondering what the topspeed is if it's was a Cupra facelift with the 7 Speed dsg instead of the pre facelift 6
The old seat Leon. I've got a chair Delbert also
Tbh this Seat is very good . It looks so good and stylish . I would prefer it over any BMW . And that HP is very good . You can't even tell it flies that much !
Yea, over any BMW...
Until it's engine pops 🤣🤣🤣
Swapped my 2.0 Seat tsi FR for a BMW 3 last year… massive regret I must say.
@@arturmd1642 the engine has been rebuilt
Wouach une véritable fusée sa décoiffe 🔥😊
QUE EMPAPEEEE AHIIIII VAMOOO EPAAAAAÑITA
" WOW " 👍💪💯😎
hi support from malaysia
Amazing
Iiiiiha
300 in a Cupra!😲
Can anyone tell me what is used to get the middle screen to shop the power and boost pressure?
Imagine being unable to catch a cupra in an m5 cs 😂 you would sell it instantly
I say this on every video but damn it 😂 YOU GOTTA TAKE IT OUT OF CUPRA MODE AND PUT IT BACK IN IF YOU START IN CUPRA! It defaults to comfort mode on the engine settings every time you switch ignition off then on!!
you all need to check out Officially Gassed's cupra
Does it have a diff at the front wheels? I think it shoud have one because it's so powerful for fwd car
Yes, it does. The VW difflock is standard in all Cupra models and it makes fwd fast and daily usable even for 500+ HP. You have to activate 'ASR Off' Option for the best performance.
This are not stock wheels...Cupra wheels are 235/35/19
does it have the original turbo elbow? why...
Looks faster than 520 hp
Wtf... A monster😱😱
I'd love to know the fuel efficiency of all these cars at 300kph lol
At that speed, fuel is less worry. Gotta worry about the brakes and pray no other road user makes a mistake
Every penny spent on this tuning is right
0-60mph around 27 seconds if you've got any tires left by that point
How’s the understeer on it?
Hello friend what turbo do you have ????
