    No wonder I thought it was shyte

    AMD done a leak test, although my mate is getting a smoke tester from work to see exactly where they are. I've already done the bypass thingy - infact i've done everything I can to make it 290ish brake - we'll see what happens. Welly, don't think i'll ever be happy lol, only reason I got it...

    No wonder I thought it was shyte

    Does the forge kit include all the pipes under the manifold? Must admit I'm still a little dubious as to the effects, especially with my torque figure, but we'll see once its done

    I've no idea, my mate is a mech at Audi maindealers and he's gonna use his discount for me, but the pipes are something ridiculous like £40 each!

    No wonder I thought it was shyte

    Well suppose I should really be posting this with my cap in hand after my previous comments over the S3, but to cut a long story short - last Friday I went to AMD to have my car remaped to stage 2 revo. Straight away before my car was on the dyno they told me i'd be at least 20brake down because...

    What is the coolest car ever?

    But I ask you this: If you had a DB5 in the garage and a MK2 golf (G60 lol) and you were going on a first date with Jennifer Aniston (or anyone of your choice) which would you take?

    Broken Down S3

    Surely if the engine light is on its produced a code? - I'm not an expert i'm just summising

    What is the coolest car ever?

    Quattro, MK1 golf, VW Camper, all cool in their own right, but would they look cool parked on the dock next to this:

    What is the coolest car ever?

    Cool in that it was the first wave of hot hatches, but there lays the question, can a hot hatch be cool? Again i'd ask if you had the DB5 and a Mk1 golf which would you use to portray the image of ultracoolness?

    What is the coolest car ever?

    Some good choices here. 250GT definately in and the Speedster has to stay if only because of its association to James Dean. Murchialago - As much as this is my current favourite car, cool??? im not so sure, I think flash is probably a better description. F355 Challenge - An undoubtable drivers...

    red hot manifold

    Do they really get that hot? That must be in the verge of causing damage etc, i've never had anything over 800 and i've run up to 35psi in some of my other cars that had EGT gauges fitted

    BHP / Tonne.

    I haven't driven the skyline yet in that form, the bhp is from an identical spec as mine, mine is all built and ready to go in. The Audi is not quick by anyones standards and as ever my complaint was mainly about the feedback the car gave

    BHP / Tonne.

    Pointless me putting the S3's in until its mapped but the skyline is: Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 650 Weight without Driver (KG) : 1530 Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 431.66 0 - 60 (Secs) : 2.940 - 100 (Secs) : 6.40 60 - 100 (Secs) : 3.46 Quarter Mile (Secs) : 11.20 Terminal Speed (MPH) ...

    HELP"!!! Over Boost / No Boost??

    Could be a hose collasping/sucking in, used to be a common fault on Escort turbos back in the day

    Why do I hate my S3 so much?

    ****** hell thats typical lol, I post moaning in the post above and you actually give me advice at the same time. I appreciate it, i'm going to look at the suspension if it doesn't sell

    Why do I hate my S3 so much?

    You know what really irritates me, is that not one person has come and said "you know what Mike, you're right, what you need to do to sort the handling/etc is this........" In fact I'm not really sure what half the replies are saying - afterall i've never compared it to other hatches, i merely...

    Why do I hate my S3 so much?

    Its got: front mount forge recirc with yellow spring? milltek catback forged pistons CR turbos K04 hybrid with cut back blades and 360 degree bearing N274 bypass Revo stg 1 Ok so it needs a remap to maximise the effect of the hybrid, but lets cut to the chase, its ****! So Bill what would you...

    Why do I hate my S3 so much?

    First of all mine is far more than just remapped and i'll tell you now it ISN'T quick, let alone very quick - there are also plenty of STD hot hatches that are quicker, let alone modded ones. I had a MKII Astra GTE with a calibra turbo engine and also an RS Turbo back in the 90's that was...
