    BAM to APY map file

    Just bought the wife an S3 with BAM engine code which has a stage 1 map, the guy gave me a copy of the map file which he has run on the car for 3 years so I know it's safe. I have standard APY S3 and wondered can I flash this to my ecu using or not?

    Front Mount

    Can anyone comment on the suitability of this front mount to use on my S3 with what will be a stage 2 remap, downpipe, badger tip etc., I bought it several months ago rather cheap but it does seem small compared to the forge item. They says it's good for 375 brake. SEAT LEON CUPRA R Lower Front...

    New Hoses Won't Fit

    Are there 2 types of flexy front/rear brake hoses for the S3 ? I have a 2000 8L and the braided hoses sent out have swivel ends were as mine are fixed and they don't fit through the brackets on the inner wings.

    What going on with my hubs???????

    Ok so came to refit my wheels after changing a few bits on my S3 and one side was a pain to get on due to there being no hub ring to locate the wheel on, I thought this was due to the thicker bells on the discs. Came to fit the other side and wheel went on dead easy. It would seem one hub has a...

    Explain the S3 ECU to me please

    I had a Simtek on my RA with lauch and anti lag etc, being new to S3's I was wondering is the ecu mapped using a generic map/flash or can it be mapped live on the road? You guys seem to pay at lot less for mapping compared to the Impreza's.
