What do you get from 5 litres? I need the car to be hasstle free. If my wife or Dad is driving it they will not be checking that. I'll be borrowing my Dad's jeep a lot more by the end of the summer for towing a track car and I'll be giving him my S3.

Yes engine will be healthy and the mapper is excellent. His Dyno is an honest one so maybe 280 might not be achieved. I want a good driver more than chasing figures anyway. Needing water meth for hybrids is seriously turning me off that route. The car is a daily and needs to be get in and drive.

lol, this is exactly where I am at the moment. Do I go with the few straight forward bolt ons or go for rods, hybrid, mani etc etc. What I've come to is Go for the bits that tuffty has mentioned and get to 280BHP OR change rods, turbo, mani, DP etc etc and go for well over 300.

Hi, I've been through the forum searching for an answer to this and I've not found one. With the following list of bits what is the estimated power you think? I'm on the fence of these few bits or going hybrid. Badger5 TIP Airtec Front mount XS power 3" downpipe and decat Remap to suit. Is...

Worth while to buy a new stat housing too. The plastic seems to warp or twist. When you put it back it's common to leak. First time I done it I had to double gasket to get a seal (was the weekend and couldn't get a housing). The dipstick tube is a must too, the plastic goes very brittle.

What downpipe do you recommend?

What's my budget? Well I don't have one really, obviously I don't want spending crazy amounts but I don't have a set one really. The sterling to Euro rate is also killing me at the moment. The timing has slipped and it looks like the head needs rebuild. So I figured I'd get a few upgrades done...

Thanks for the replies. What decat and downpipe are people here using? Using the search I've seen a few from Chinease stuff to more recognisable brands.

The exhaust mani, decat, downpipe yeah I can probably do that alright but the FMIC could have to wait. What's the outcome if only manifold is done? Too high a temp to tthe point of damage or just not extra power?

My engine needs work done so perfect time to upgrade! I've been searching on here and I haven't found exactly what I'm after. My 02 S3 is a daily and always will be, I don't do all that much mileage but I need the car. So as its a daily I'd like more power but I'm not chasing figures. BBT and...

Hi Tom, I've got Leon Cupra R brembo's going onto some 332mm two piece discs. You're welcome to have a look at them if you want to see some before you buy. Paul in Ireland (Kildare).

Can you send the details to me also please.

I have a vag405 thing in my boot all the time, I put a link down the bottom. It's read everything to date anyway on VAG and lot of other makes too. If I were to buy a new one I'd consider these Alloy-Wheels.ie - Alloy wheel & suspenion specialists - Race Diagnostics Liquid Gauge Look to be the...

Cheers for that, Done, back to understanding the outside temp. -10.5 this morning......

Hi, The temp readings in my 02 S3 changed from celcius to farenheit when I removed the battery and refitted it. Can anyone tell me how to change it back? I know how I can get the various info displayed on the aircon screen as link below but how do I just change the display setting from...

These are specifically for the VAG range of cars and don't show up a blown bulb warning. Also they last, many of the 12v don't. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-Number-plate-LEDs-14-5v-39mm-White-42-Draft-Designs-/400117319981?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item5d28d9c92d

Looks great I think and you have me thinking of what I can do next with it... Did you have a sheet long enough to just cut the shape of the grill out or was it a long strip that can bend around the corners with the heat gun?

I am very interested in the rear bumper, side and front bumper bits. Price depending.

Some of the 996twin turbo rears are the same as the leon cupra R front I'm almost sure. You are then going to need a carrier made up / bought. Have a look at the ECS kits, some good value there. I have 2 996 twin turbo rear callipers and they are identical to the cupra R ones. So I am...

Where abouts in Ireland are you? Dublin - Contact Keith and alloy-wheels.ie. He has a LARGE business in Blanchardstown Galway - Contact Tom at Fahy's garage. Incredible mechanic and garage. He owned probably the first MTM tuned S3's. Where abouts are you? I can point you to somewhere...
