    Not all imports are 100% UK spec but this one is, it was bought for £24k, saving £4k on UK price (in the days when the £/€ rate made it worthwhile) and had pretty much every option bar satnav, Jedi missed off the mirrors, CD changer, armrest from distant memory. Only difference between...

    ***SPORTEC REMAP***

    so whats the score with Sportec and AmD now? AmD seem to be distributing Sportec stuff so is the Sportec chip a re-badged AmD program or are AmD using the Sportec code and have abandoned theirs or what?

    2nd to 3rd gearchange in S3

    anyone else find themselves scuffing the cogs on this change - I have done it a few times recently (particularly when pushing on) am I being lazy and not depressing clutch enough or is the biting point for this change higher tha the others (I am sure my left foot depresses the same on all...

    Audi Kills Off S3 !!!

    [ QUOTE ] Drill said: Am I the only one anxious for a 5-door "S" or "RS" model [/ QUOTE ] yep! I hate the looks of the 5 door A3 and if that rumour is true Audi have lost another customer but out of all the rumours the one that seems most likely to me was: A3 3.2 - about 240bhp but set...

    whats this S3 worth......

    2001 version came with 210 and 225bhp so not power the 2001 changes were mainly cosmetic - one piece headlamps, new tail lamps slightly redesgned fascia and aircon controls etc

    Just bought some Alu mirrors for £250!!

    just a word of caution - I had a problem with my ali - mirrors. My import came without and should have had them. When the German garage sent me replacements they took them off a German LHD car and they were useless on my car - the electric motors adj is set up for viewing angles if you sit on...

    whats revo ?

    couldn't agree more Thorney - my car was used as a tester for a new APR high boost chip (APR did not have their own S3 or TT) and I was happy to try it out as I was interested in how it compared to my excellent AmD chip. APR weren't going to charge me as a result but the choice was mine - keep...

    To Chip..

    its a moot point and personally I would call them all chipping companies - howevr a remap would be to reprgogram the existing OEM chip (which AmD do) rather than replace the chip with a different design (per MTM and APR) - it makes no difference to stealth as AmD stick a very obvious encryption...
