From the factory the Leon is a competent performer, but there is always room for improvement. With the addition of a valve timing gear and high performance muffler, the JE DESIGN Seat Leon Cupra R is tuned to an impressive 190kW, or 258 HP, 49 HP more than the factory specs and torque is increased to 350 NM. Top speed is increased to 249km/h, and 0-100km/h comes in only 6.8 seconds. The tuned valve timing gear is available to warm the coldest Leon Cupra R owner for only 1.650 € including MoT, and the sport tuned muffler is available with 2x90mm chrome tips on each side of the vehicle for only 839 €.
With its newfound power, traction becomes an issue. JE DESIGN offers a sport suspension system that lowers the Leon Cupra R 25mm on all four corners, providing a sporty feel and increased handling capabilities. With the increased handling, you have to upgrade the rolling stock. JE DESIGN recommends its 2 piece Visage wheel package. Featuring 17x7” rims with 225/45 ZR17 tires for only 2.349 €, or 8x18” rims with 225/40 ZR18 tires for only 3.289 €.
The exclusive JE DESIGN body kit, consisting of a rear valance with two-piece diffuser, and distinctive headlight covers dominates the hot styling of the Leon Cupra R. Completing the package is the three-piece rear spoiler that allows you to adjust the angle of the spoiler by 15 degrees. The complete package is available for 877 €, (estimated paint and installation cost of 590 €).
With such hot styling outside, it would be criminal to forget the interior. The complete kit consists of a dash overlay for the glove box, as well as the Climate control and upper part of the center console manufactured out of brushed aluminum for only 119 €.
