It was agreed 225 in the S3 so my car was bought on that basis.

Sorry to confuse


The 180bhp engines were just in the A3 mate, The S3 had always had either 210 or 225
Whats your engine code? You'l find it under the plastic cover on the left hand side stamped in, should be BAM if its a 225

As for wheels, BBS CH but i dont think you'd get a set with decent tyres for a grand, dont ruin it with LMs or even worse LM reps!

18" RSTT would keep it looking nice and OEM, should pick up a mint set with good tyres for less than £500

Then you really need to look at sorting the suspension out..
Springs, shocks, adjustable tie bars etc...
Once you start you wont stop! get on audi-sport.net for some good advice although it seems to have been bombarded with 18yr old chavs now the S3s have come down in price!

19" wheels will ruin it, 18" is the ideal choice

anything showing over 300 lb/ft torque is either dodgy rolling roads or silly boost. Great cars looks like you got a bargain mate. Remap, lowering and wheels will be spot on.

Apparently they cant read my ECU. Throwing up errors etc etc/ cant do it. They took screen prints to pass to Revo HQ so they can investigate.

Heard of any issues people?
