    RS3 PFL want more sound!

    The only things left you could do are go stage 2 with a decat downpipe and/or gut the backbox. I've even seen people remove the backbox entirely and replace it with a Y pipe to the exhaust tips on Golf R's and it makes them immensely loud but haven't heard an rs3 who's had this done.

    APR STAGE 3 RS3 8v

    Not necessarily APR but stage 3 e85 is really pushing the limits of the stock block from what I've understood (my garage is an apr dealer and told me this). They weren't the ones who forged my engine either so it wasn't like they were trying to sell me on the idea. The one case where I know...
