Hi guys
Toying with the idea of doing the above mods for a while.
Just wondering what effect each mod has on engine efficeincy i.e mpg.
Facts only please gents I want to avoid the 'hypothetical' opinions!!
Cheers
Well you cannot do a turbo back exhaust without a remap as you will be removing your DPF. You cannot do a filter and CAI as the as both airfilter systems. None of the above will make any difference to your mpg if you did fit them anyway.
Depend how you drive it. l get 300-330 miles out of a tank before and after all the mods.

so you cant fit a turbo back exhaust without getting a remap? even with a cat?
just noticed its for a diesel!! is this also the same with the S3?
Pointless?
It's an S3!!

CAI + TBE + remap will give you much better mpg on an 8P S3. Before my mods I saw 22mpg average - now 28mpg.
But who modifies a car for better mpg for Christ's sake ?
Efficiency should be the last and most trivial consideration in the whole process.
Climb down from your high horses guys!!
Sooo...back to my original question-will it have much effect or not really

Thanks for your useful info!
Climb down from your high horses guys!! At no point did I say I was considering the mods to increase mpg!!! I was merely enquiring as to what the effect was-not that daft considering the miles I do and petrol prices on the rise. Incidentally when an Audi is designed you can pretty much guarantee that efficiency isn't seen as 'trivial '.
I am after a little more oomph when I put my foot down-not the biggest crime and wanted to know how this affected fuel efficiency -again not the biggest crime.
Sooo...back to my original question-will it have much effect or not really?
Proably gonna do it anyway!!
Oh yeah its for an S3!!!
Didn't realise the order my cars were in on my signature was so life or death!! it does say "GONE" after the derv!!
Cheers Iggu-do you drive any differently now that u have the mods? Or is that like-for-like driving style?

Also does the TBE decrease spool up time?
Thanks
