The people over at
ABT Sportsline have come up with yet another project, a tuned Seat Leon ST
Cupra, complete with a power boost. The 2.0-liter four-banger was tuned to
deliver 370 PS and 460 Nm of torque. The extra 70
PS and 80 Nm of torque were obtained by remapping
the ECU and probably installing a new exhaust system.
Just for kicks,
we’ll remind you that the Lamborghini Countach LP400 used to have 375 PS from a V12 engine. And while the 0-100 km/h sprint time
of 5.4 seconds may be within reach for the modern all-wheel drive compact
estate, the 309 km/h top speed isn’t.
While the Leon ST
Cupra tuned by ABT doesn’t sport any other mods apart from a new wheel set,
being that this isn’t their first encounter with the brand’s performance model,
they could fit it with a bunch of other parts they’ve release for the series.
ABT’s other offerings range from all sorts of wheels in sizes of up to 20
inches and lowering suspension kits to integrated entrance lights with the
tuner’s logo and interior trimmings.
