Which body 8p or 8v, 3 or 5 door?

You got a 1.4tfsi like?

Also thing I'm gonna go decat with a backbox not a sports cat

So far I've done the intake and messed around with it abit, found out its best to use an adapter on the recirculation valve to vent to atmostphere as it goes down the breather otherwise. I've put some alloys on and are just getting round to the exhaust, got a quote for £900 atm, shouldent be...

Also heard there was a problem with cracked pistons after a remap, not sure if my engine suffers with this problem ?

I own an 2008 A3 8P with a 1.4tfsi (1.4tsi) engine, im wanting to add more modifications to the car and have been reading up on the common problems with the engine and was looking for some advice. My engine code is CAXC The main problems I'm worried about are: - Camchain tensioner issue -...

Thanks, ill be happy push 200, that sounds like a plan, im no expert but i guessed if i could get a hyrbid made from a turbo thats meant for the car it would mean that i dont have to mess around with oil lines or moving things like the intake like in the guide above...

Ahh, right so gonna take abit more than i thought unless i can get the current turbo made into a hybrid, but not sure what internals would go in. I read that the LOBA hybrid isnt too good as it needs alot of backpressure and you cant run it with a decat, people were sying to just get the...

Yeah :/ shame, if i dont get anything ill try the a1 one and a mk5 golf one :)

With it being the 08 A3 its the same engine as in some of the mk5 golfs and not the A1's, i dont think they started making the A1's with it in till a few years later :/, so i cant find anything

I was just wondering if anybody could shed some light on what my turbo is, the model number is 03C145701N on my 1.4tfsi with engine code CAXC, im thinking of getting a hybrid turbo but arnt sure if it is a K03 or what? Any help appreciated Alex :)

Step 1, spend a few months gradually building an intake :L Belive it or not the heat shield is made from the front of a boiler. Just need to change the jubilee clips for t-clamps

Thats pretty nice, i dont really want a k&n tbf just cause of the fact that all the f**kboys have them on their citroen c1's and corsa's Was looking at putting something like this together:

Well I think that will be next, making mine look pretty haha, was thinking of a new rs3 style grill, some bbs ch's in gun metal grey, my cars looks the same as your display picture same colour gen etc

Wish you well then mate, you guys have been a massive help, was half expecting to just get trolled straight away

I will do haha, haven't had much time to today as the Empire last night gave me a good hangover to deal with today haha

Does taking the internals out of the precat include removing the manifold/turbo/exhaust all together or is there a faster way ?

The MAF isn't on the intake side of the turbo, all I have is the filter pipe and a small breather pipe that goes to somewhere on the block, so won't be too much chew really, will only be getting a pipe with the small adjacent pipe for the beeather

Ahh, I thought he meant the intake manifold for some reason haha, I've been looking at some universal kits on ebay so I can get the hose then I was gonna put a ramair filter or something like that on I'm not sure if it has a pre cat but don't most modern cars have a precat in the exhaust...

How would you go about changing the intake, seems as though the intercooler is part and parcel of it ?
