That makes your result more impressive
Do you have access to 98 or 99 ron?
If you kick your passenger and say 1/4 of a fuel tank you could probably go very low 3 using 97 with a drop of e85 (like an e20 blend)
Or perhaps you are lucky and can see a 2.x sec ??

Bit off topic but whats the Evo 1 like? worth the upgrade over the standard cooler?What tune do you have and what oct are you running? I assume you are at stage 1 or 1+
Here is mine at 3c and 19c tuned with Uni 1+ running 98 ron. I do have an apr inlet combined with a k&n panel filter and evo1 ic upgrade

Thankyou for the detailed reply! it is on the list good to hear some feedback not many have it.I don’t think you can find any thing as bad as the stock cooler.
Evo1 (not the older one) has a core volume of ~13L compared to the stock 8.3L
Here is a 4th hear pull at 14c ambient with same start and warmup.
You will of course find upgrades that is better then the evo1. I went with the evo1 coz it has the whole core exposed to air flow (where others have the upper 1/3 hidden behind the crash bar) and require no crash bar mod. ACC (if you have one) will also fit without any mod / recalibration.
Evo1 uses a tube fin core and the ic weight is about 8kg compared to the 5.5kg stock cooler. If you compare this to some other bar & plate the evo1 is light weigh
Adding more weigh to the front of the car is not the smartest thing you can do if you ask me.
Usually tube fin is better for the track and bare & plate is better for the drag stripe.

The last MRC dyno run showed 548ps and 785nm but I see that the latest MRC switchable maps with higher octane fuel are seeing over 590ps and limiting torque to around 750nm (to help preserve the rods).
My best so far is 11.0 sec and I was hoping to go into high 10 after I did the dog bone insert.
Here you go....I also have a 10.92 and 10.89 run somewhere too with terminal speed at over 127mph. These were recorded at some runs I did at Santa Pod. I had just over half tank of fuel that day too. Me and a friend ran our cars on low fuel at the previous SP event and had some weird stuttering shortly after launching the car off the line. MRC advised us that the fuel scavenging in the FL car tank can struggle to suck up enough fuel when accelerating hard on launches with less than two bars on the gauge. I have also included a 100-200kph time in case you are interested.Would love to see your 1/4 mile time on this setup
FL??
I assume every car in this thread is the 400hp Facelift version. Anyone here have the older 365hp car?
Also since I have been hanging on the us forums I assume all cars are sedan but I guess some here have the SB version?
This could have an impact on the cars drag coefficient on higher speeds.

My car was a full stage 2 package with down pipe, IC upgrade and larger turbo inlet (Forge). The switchable mapping allowed the use of higher octane fuel or booster which makes a a good difference on the DAZA engine. I also had the DSG mapping and had replaced the upper and lower dogbone mounts which restrict the engine/gearbox movement under launch and hard cornering.
I have a 2015 with decat, Wagner intercooler and high flow filter 471bhp but too much of a peasant to own a dragy!Would love to see your 1/4 mile time on this setup

But once I've done a couple of 0-60s what's the point of it?
I would have liked to try it pre and post Revo map because I'm pretty sure they just kept the car all day while drinking brews and didn't actually touch it.3 am quarter mile passes
Thanks for that, I'm sure I need a bit more practice, I have just been watching the boost bar climb and going when it peaks. I never managed a consistent time before my stage 2 tune, but best was around a 3.61 IIRC, and the car certainly launches WAY harder now. Hoping I will see a bit closer to your results with warm dry tyres/roads and a the right technique
Surely you can tell a difference, even with more of a smoother map? They also increase the rev limit. Is yours a FL car, if so you’ll be able to see it?
Mine is PFL though mate.
I was gonna take it to them in the first place but thought it was a bit far to travel. So in the end traveled even further to DMSInteresting to hear you've seen it first hand. I've had a couple of MQB cars, and Revo has done some pretty amazing things with Golf R's to be perfectly fair. But the RS3 tunes seem a bit underwhelming.
Ah sorry mate, didn't realise you had a PFL. Bottom line is that without a dyno before and after you really have no idea what you are getting, Still worth taking it to MRC and let them work their magic. I'd bet ya £20 they can unlock a whole lot more power from that combo

I did have. Had the Revo done, thought it was ****, had the parts fitted and a DMS map.You have revo on your rs3?
My first tune on mine was revo but I logged some strange n75 dc behavior and boost was hit and miss all the time.
Did you log yours to see how it performed?
Here is a revo log and after I removed it I went with unitronic and did same logging.
Usually n75 starts at 100% for so to drop to get into boost quickly but you can see revo starts at 75% and is struggling to keep boost under control.
