it's all very well saying that guys, but i do like acceleration rather than going round corners fast, where can you do that anyway on our roads?
You can do that anywhere...and at more license friendly spereds than trying to deploy 350BHP on standard suspension...suspension which in my view is verging on dangerous when new...and not fit for a 210BHP S3, never mind a 350BHP car....heaven knows how bad it'll be on yours with a few miles under it's under-damped belt.
And i do no allot about turbos etc, I'm just no so clued up on suspension etc, anyway what would be the point changing brakes suspension etc before getting a new turbo, as a mapped s3 is gutless, i don't care what anyone says! They are NOT fast at all! and if you think they are you haven't been in a proper car,
Do you realise you've just made yourself look a bit of a tit?
A well set up mapped S3 will destoy a 350BHP S3 on standard brakes and suspension on every road bar a straight dual carridgeway/motorway.
You've just not been in a well set up S3.
Nor, I suggest, a well mapped S3....or you wouldn't make ill informed, ignorant comments like that.
Since I now own what I consider to be a 'proper car' and having changed from a well set up, mapped S3, I can tell you that on challenging back roads the S3 would leave me for dead up to 60-70MPH.
Perfectly legal...
So you really haven't got a clue what you are talking about...
A 350 BHP S3 on standard dampers and brakes is a frightening thought...a car that will accelerate quickly (although not as quick as most think 350BHP will provide), but not corner, or stop.
Bravo...
i doubt mine will be all that quick when i get it back, but what car can you get smiler to a s3 with that much power before you say you should have brought a skyline! Ive done allot of research on aps, who did used to AMD really and i no the equipment they are using + it's all under warranty!
Oh, it'll be quick...
But on standard dampers and brakes, it'll be a death trap.
