    Weird S3 fuel economy issue

    Hey guys, firstly my car has no fault codes, maf is great, no timing pull, no boost leaks, cts and stat are great too. Now on the highway the car is very light on fuel(2.8-7.5l/100km) but in town(short trips) its disgustingly heavy on fuel(12.5l/100km), it used to be very light in town but now...

    quicker than a type r???

    When my s3 was stock i beat an fn2 from the line, he passed me in 6th gear due to plenty of boost leaks lol. I feel the ep3 and ek9 are genuine type r's though, i owned an EG lsvtec and ran a 14.2 with it

    Vag Com Code 16395

    Clear the fault and see if it comes back, sounds like cam timing or maybe the n205 plug is loose

    Wmi reduced my intake temps by 30 degrees! I run 70% meth with 30% water, the nozzle is mounted by the map sensor and the pump is mounted behind the front bumper

    water methanol injection ??

    4mm is too big , use a heat proof pipe. Make sure u buy decent quality meth coz u get cheap 'offcuts' , also increase timing with lemmiwinks. My meth comes in at about 1 bar off boost, the 1.8T's dont like large quantities injected so becareful. It made a HUGE difference! :)

    How does the Mk V Golf R32 compare to the S3 ??

    My mate has a Mk5 R32, i drove it. Stock vs stock and modded vs modded. S3 Performance is greater, reliability well he's car is alot newer so it wins that. Build quality the s3 is almost as good as the R32, handling is identical. You should go for a Mk2 Leon Cupra, thats an epic car

    New MAF but g/s still low

    Drives lovely, killed some pretty impressive cars with it. Launches great and still pulls strong in 6th, revs up quick and covers ground fast

    New MAF but g/s still low

    The unitronic dealer here says it wont, why would it hold back airflow yet give full boost/timing, its strange. The car supposed to be flowing 200+ g/s, sorting out the EGT next week

    New MAF but g/s still low

    Injector size is on the pump and thats behind the bumper lol, i run a 70% methanol mix with 30% water, cant switch it off because the map is aggressive and it will pull alot of timing. Btw the dv is set at 28 clicks and thats perfect on my car

    New MAF but g/s still low
