    Took the plunge with TVS gearbox tune

    What about stage 1 Harvey? I have that and the gearbox was done at the same time. If TVS is only going to do clamping pressures then there would be no real point in spending more money [emoji848]. By the way too, my stage 1 is running at 682 Nm. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

    2022 is 6 Years of RS3 ownership

    Fantastic car and read. I'm on the same page as yourself. I bought a 2018 saloon new in 2018. I have done quite a few tasteful exterior mods and also have a stage 1 tune. Like you, I must clean my engine bay [emoji12]. I think it's gonna be a lifer for me and I prefer it to the 8Y which I've...

    Took the plunge with TVS gearbox tune

    Thanks, looking forward to hearing from you. I hope that TVS engages 7th in S mode at 70 at the highest. Would you recommend going this route even though I've had a TCU map that was applied at same time as ECU? And if so, does TVS have their own place in UK? I would be travelling over from N...

    Took the plunge with TVS gearbox tune

    Good to hear that. I have a stage 1 remap and am thinking of getting a TVS TCU map as well. One of the things I hate about existing S mode is that hte gearbox will never engage 7th gear unless you are travelling at illegal speeds or you engage cruise. With TVS does the car engage 7th in S mode...

    Russian Audi parts?

    Absolutely well said. I'm hoping for a Russian palace implosion. That dictator needs replacing and put in a place where he can no longer harm the world. It's not the Russian people, it's the Kremlin. But people power should take over in that country too and protest against such an evil regime...

    Remember the video of the Focus RS which drifted into a cliff side whilst showing off the new drift mode? I can see a few 8Ys throwing out the tail a bit too much in the not too distant future... Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

    Has Anybody Fitted the Wagner Evo 1 Intercooler?

    @Leftback , I'm not sure. I just refuse to believe that my car has a shorter distance between the plastic locator frame and the engine. End flange measurement on mine is 280 mm and on another RS3, checked by Revo, 300 mm. And this is exactly why I could not get the Revo IC to bolt up correctly...

    Has Anybody Fitted the Wagner Evo 1 Intercooler?

    At some point, if you could see your way to taking this same measurement for me I would greatly appreciate it. Or indeed any other owner who could do it. Whilst it's not scientific it does give a guide. I took measurement from the back end flange on both pieces and gave me a measurement of...

    Has Anybody Fitted the Wagner Evo 1 Intercooler?

    I didn't. I sent it back to them yesterday Roy. The silicone pipe they sent was the same size. I did a measurement from end flange on hard discharge pipe to end flange on both OE and Revo IC flange as you see in picture. They did same on another RS3 they had in workshop and told me theirs is...

    Has Anybody Fitted the Wagner Evo 1 Intercooler?

    They just dont know. I received a new silicone pipe today and its just the same. They say their hoses are correct to engineering drawings but Im not convinced. Of course you could fit their hose and connect everything up BUT , on doing so, the IC lugs and bottom joint will be about 20mm away...

    Was the upper dogbone mount fitted?

    I think you are right; it may be that the upper dogbone cant be seen whenever the pendulum arm is refitted. I was just worried. The parts I used were an 034 upper dogbone, part # 034-509-1035 and lower was APR part # APR0361 VERS 2. Nore that there are two different versions of this mount. You...
