Yeah I've read 2+2 is a bit more tame and I'll probably settle for that as it's my daily and don't want to ruin my clutch!

Waiting for my DTUK to be delivered - what setting are you running on yours? Planning to try a few out, but I'm not patient enough to try all of the combinations!

It's frustrating cos you'd think these cars would be built to take a hammering, but if you do look on the Facebook S1 owners page as JDB refers to, loads of people have had things break even on standard power! I think they cut corners and saved money where possible to the detriment of the...

What shop was this? And as for warranty, they will use it to say it increased power therefore that's why whatever part it is broke. Obviously not going to refuse warranty work on something like a headlight because of an exhaust, but anything drive train they will. Clutch being the main one, CV...

Currently debating the mid silencer delete on mine - it's like an on going 6 month long debate of mine haha mostly cos of invalidating the warranty. Loads of posts on here about it, but basically I've been quoted £220 by EMP to have it done which I understand is about right although I'm sure...

Boiling water over the rear badge and it will peel off - always worked for me! DRL's - from 2011 it's a legal requirement to have DRL's for homologation purposes on all new models launched. That'll be why Audi wouldn't deactivate. However, you can probably do it if you really want to ... You...

Is your boot wrapped matte black?

Congrats on the order! Sounds like a good spec, very similar to mine except colour! I think you can see the rubber boot mat on the Audi store page, along with all the other accessories for the A1 / S1 that they sell.

Lower springs would put more strain on the shocks though, and they'd eventually give up earlier than at standard height. It does look a lot better for being an inch lower though! Spacers next?

They couldnt the fit the s tronic box in the shell, they might do it with the next gen A1/S1. We shall see! I'd have chosen the S-tronic option if it were available, having driven a few audis with it, it's definitely better! Plus you'd get launch control ;). Having said that, I love the S1...

Yeah, the 4 door one has the cut out bit in the middle as a clearance feature to the Ariel as the Ariel couldn't be packaged in to the shell of the car like in the 3 door one, headroom issues I'm guessing. As a result it actually ended up looking much better than the 3 door one IMO!

Cheers I'll try sneaking the Mrs hairdryer out the house! They definitely show up worst on black cars!

Profusely polished a small bird poo stain - any tips to get rid of the mark left behind? Luckily it's not in a very visible spot ...

I went for the Revo one instead in the end, pleased with the results and looks great under the bonnet - nice and subtle!

All, Jojo created a thread like this in the S3 8L section that I used to post in back when I had my S3's, and it's ****** popular! The S1 forum is slightly quieter but I thought it might be interesting to see what work, maintenance or performance, people have done on their S1's! I'll kick...

I'd have thought it'd be alright to be fair! Tried putting the OE one back in see if it changes anything?

Can you change the spring in it? What power you running?

DV staying open? At a guess ..

£640 - 25 years old and 5 years no claims. With AXA. Wasn't the cheapest (£600) but couldn't be bothered to change, been with them the past 3 years, 3 car changes in between, always been pretty good! Fully comp inclusive of breakdown, etc etc.

All, Wondering if anyone has fitted the forge turbo inlet hose? Pretty good price, just keen to get people's first hand opinions on quality, etc? https://www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/Inlet_Hose_for_Audi_S1--product--1568.html Cheers, Will
