    N75J.... Which way round ?

    Does anyone know if you can fit the N75J the wrong way round ? I want to put one on my S3 and its slightly different to look at :- On the N75J, horizontally there is a short tube from one side, and a longer one from the other, then theres a third straight down. On the original the long and...

    These wheels on the S3?

    DON'T DO IT!!!!!! They look shockingly bad mate! Its as if they have just come off an old MK2 Escort Wideboy XR Thingy Turbo or something. They are a bit D.I.S.C.O. Still, paint a few flames up the wings and doors, add a roof mounted A-Team Van roof spoiler and you could bring them into line...

    A quick question on N75??? Valve

    OK guys, I've read the link, read as much as I can find and there are a number of varying results from this from top increases to some talk of decreases in power/torque. I have a Revo upgrade and am looking to use the N75J myself but I do have a concern over the engine running lean with this...

    Audi S3 buying guide!

    Sell the Nova and spend the dosh on the S3 mods!! You can get a fair bit just for the engine! From what I've seen on the forum, Mr Ess_Three seems to have the most modified S3 on here and therefore, the most experience (?) with different bits of kit. Read all of his excellent test day threads...

    Is it Chipped??

    Get hold of VAG-COM and measure block 120 in third gear. This will give you a torque figure that should help suss out if its been chipped. Anything around 350+ nm at around 3600rpm would indicate some chipping to me! Am I right chaps ?

    Audi S3 buying guide!

    A facelift did occur for the 2001 model and its available on Y-plate onwards (as far as I know at least... you may find a handful of x-platers), some visual differences being the one piece headlights/indicator units, different rear clusters, some minor differences to interior trim etc (such as...

    280 BHP for my S3 please!

    Cheers Gambba! Ref the DV, the Forge DV006 started to stick at the weekend for the first time. Seems true-to-form for these units. I've gone back to my standard Bosch item and all is well. Again, I've notice no difference whatsoever so it seems even the responsiveness that I reported as being...

    280 BHP for my S3 please!

    Ess-Three (or anyone really!), Do you know if there is a formula for calculating BHP from a Torque and RPM figure ? I read with interest your comments on BHP etc from earlier in this discussion but whilst I am seeing 172lbft (REVO:- low boost 9, timing 6, no additional hi boost set). I'm not...

    280 BHP for my S3 please!

    Ryan, I think I saw your post on the UK MKIVs forum ? I forgot to mention in my post on there (user- nradfo01) that I have also got the Forge DV006 Piston Ram Closed Loop Diverter Valve (phew!) installed. Made ****** all difference, if I'm being honest, but looks nice and shiny! All it has...

    3dr A3 1.8T Sport + child = ???

    We have my S3 and her Golf V5 (deeper boot and 5 doors) and we have no trouble with the rear leg room for our daughter. When I had an E36 M3 many moons ago, a 3 year old (ex-birds daughter) in the back used to kick the crap out of the seats so you're probably going to have to buy a...

    BIG THANKS TO Ess_Three

    I just wanted to say thanks to Ess Three for publishing all his finds on his day testing. Excellent reading. Very tempting on some points. Saved me money on others (ie that crappy heat soak gasket idea), and potentially a bad crash with deadly EBC Greenstuff pads fitted (they should come with a...
