    S3 modification help?

    Yeah I'd be looking for forged Pistons, probably rs4 injectors, new brakes system and then big turbo! Have to break the engine in after my rebuild and see how I go through court with the garage I bought the car off before going through with any modifications .

    S3 modification help?

    Yeah once I begin looking at taking the car to stage 3 I'd be looking at upgrading the brakes, turbo and injectors. Won't be for 12-18 months or so I would say though. As long as the internals are okay, I can crack on with getting all the above work done. Ha ha, young and daft. Mind me asking...

    Brand new engine or rebuild engine?

    Thanks again for replying everyone. Went for a rebuild from Essex. Collection, fitting and engine provided were massively cheaper at auto choice. Going to look at going to small claims court depending what the CAB say

    Brand new engine or rebuild engine?

    Thank for your reply Audi smart. I got a 3 month warranty which only covers me for £1000. No good in this case I'm afraid!! Looking to go small claims court and say the car has been sold to me with a fault as Audi have said this definitely isn't a wear and tear issue. I'm going to look into...

    Brand new engine or rebuild engine?

    Looking for some advice regards to getting a new engine for my 58 reg audi s3. Looks as though I've been shafted by the dealer I've bought the car off as I only had it 4 weeks before it went!! All of the camshaft followers have been damaged. The car is going to require new cylinder head at the...
