Build Thread: Timba's S3 Sedan like Whoa !

[Timba85]

Hey there! Im Tim from Frankfurt-Germany and I'd like to introduce my S3 Sedan.
Do not hesitate to contact me for any questions regarding my ride and the setup
It all started in Neckarsulm early 09/2014 - I had a great day of joy and pride

I decided to get rid of all driving assistance Systems, my approach was just to get a optical & technical stunner.
Important selections were:
-LED headlights
-B&O Sound System
-Tinted Windows
-Painted brake Body
-19 alloys
-blackened window trim
-Navigation & AMI

First build: Sell tires and Setup winter wheels
I already had a complete winter Setup from my old TT and I decided to install it first before my project went on couple of days ago.
It was a "Diewe Trina" wheel with 225/40/R18 Nokian WR A3 tire - indeed! nothing Special, but it worked for the cold days.

Second build: Install HJS downpipe with race cat and adjust OEM catback System with help of JP Performance
I went to JP Performance and got a modification for the current OEM catback. I also choose a HJS downpipe which was very popular for Golf GTI's.
Sometimes it brought 20 HP more and 30 NM.
Here is a short Clip of my road trip:

I do not really like the Sound, because it is to loud in my opinion, so it would like to sell the catback.
The HJS pipe is nice! Great torque and a lot more power!

Third and biggest build:
-KW V2 coilovers
-Vredestein Ultrac Vorti R 255/30/R19
-HRE FF01 19x8,5
-Stage 2 (370HP - 500NM)
Yippi ay yeah!!! The cold days in Germany are OVER! So I used one of the first warm days to reach a new level!!

That is beyond epic. Amazing photos. The first side shot it looked like an RS7 or RS6.

380HP...who needs an RS3!

Im sure the RS3 will go to the 500HP direction soon

 

[lucas-suisse]

Im sure the RS3 will go to the 500HP direction soon

RS3 stage 1 should be around 420hp .....

[Timba85]

It's just time for something new

 

[Blackwhite]

Beautiful Car! It's just you put so much work in it. I didn't think you would
sell it so soon!

 

[naughts4187]

It's just time for something new

fully understand! Are you selling your HRE wheels?

 

[AB04DAB]

not really sure on they wheels, just my opinion though. lovely car and nice power!

 

[Timba85]

I will sell the HRE's and everything else from the aftermarket If I'd need go back to stock.
Lets see what will happen. It's not that easy to sell a car in this price range.
