    here are power maps of chipped and big turbo cars

    Like Rich I made a comparison but this time S3 210bhp (K04) and my S3 (IHI hybrid BB) Clearly you can see the torgue-band has become narrower, but on the other hand the rev-limit has been increased a little.

    not impressed

    Had something similar on driver's door just under the window. Had it polished and treated at the dealer. Still can be seen, if you look for it. Maybe results depend on color of car (mine's ebony black). Good luck.

    The S3 is gone...long live the S3!

    Take a 996 Porsche Turbo for its 4wd, ditch the engine, mount a fully tuned RUF NA GT3 engine. That 'll do the trick.

    R.I.P S3 ENGINE

    It ran 20K with the mods, had allready high oil usage before mod. prob the oil ring on the piston caused the initial damage. The tuning has only speeded up the damage process. 210 and 225 engine blocks are indeed identical. I have the 210bhp version (tuned up to 350bhp), in case of swap to 225...
