    Vid of modded RS4

    for a start that is not an RS4 but an S4!! the car has anti lag hence all the popping and banging at the start. Audi invented it for the group B cars to keep the turbo spinning when changing gear to ensure you are always on the money when changing and going up. makes a car really quick but...

    gear crunching from 2nd to 3rd..

    S3 vs R32

    early E36 M3s were only 3 litre and 286 bhp the later evo came along with 321 and are quick! I agree with Monty and nervus...if it pulls 3-5 cars lengths in 1/4 of a mile then that is a solid solid dicking in anyone's books! over 100 then forget it as it will be gone regardless of what chip...

    S3 vs Escort Cosworth

    cossie has a 2litre lump as well so more torque. I have driven a 500 bhp sierra one and it was hairy to the max! even had hair on the inside of its hands! my parents neighbour still owns it and has had it for years. MA developments worked their magic on it with the autronic ECU and anti...

    DIRTY REAR!!

    I will have a set and well done to that man Imola S3 that suggested we do a group buy. I think it is very much to do with car shape and air flow around it so it just sucks it all up the back!! do the flaps (ooeerr misuss) come with screws to bolt them on? are there alredy holes in the car...

    DIRTY REAR!!

    thought you would look you bunch of tarts!!! : just a quick one really but in this weather the back of the S3 gets really minging as does the vision out of the rear window. I guess a lot has got to do with the shape of the car but can mud guards at the rear help prevent this? has...

    imminent S3 purchase - some advice required!

    I would agree it seems a lot but then it is low mileage as well. if you are doing that much mileage then why not buy one with slightly higher miles, save yousrelf some money then change it after a year. I got a 51 plate red S3, 18 " RSTTs, arm rest, Bose, heated seats (cream leather)...
