Only just joined the forum, so a massive hello to everyone!
My question is where to go next in regards to upgrading my S3 because I'm stumped. I have read nearly every forum including this forum but still cannot find the answers I want, to my needs.
I want usable performance on a day to day basis without the financial hardship. My expectation is a car which can handle the odd 0-60 sprint in a reasonable time, have nice in gear punch but be still usable around town.
Important here: budget £2,000 for all upgrades.
Although my car was watertight in its history the Revo stage 1 remap highlighted a failing clutch. I embarrassingly emailed Forge motorsport asking if their spring settings on the 008 valve weren't correct, only to be responded with a very accurate description that my clutch is at fault! Bare in mind every hose has been replaced for silicone and the N75 valve and oil donut valve have been replaced.
So first things first, a new clutch for me, what do you recommend? A better clutch, semi racing, racing, single mass or dual mass flywheel, etc?
Are the 312mm/256mm brakes good enough? Do I need Porsche calipers or R8 calipers, etc?
Exhaust systems, talk to me because I don't know whats best? Milltek cat back or full system?
Thanks in advance, for what I hope is an abundance of answers to my questions.
