Been lurking around for a few weeks, seems pretty active on here, so I thought I'd sign up!
I live in northern Alberta, Canada. Coming from a long line of VW ownership (18 to date), and one Audi 5000 way back. always wrenched on my own vehicles, and have had some pretty fun rides (Squareback on full air ride being a favorite).
I recently traded in my 15' GLI Autobahn 6m, on a 2016 base load S3 P+.
The GLI
I loved my GLI, had a great amount of options and features, was a blast to drive.
Not fast enough. Too much wheel spin. I had been eyeing the S3 since it came out, and finally one popped up that I liked, and here we are.
I bought it mid June, and this is what I've done (so far):
-Unitronic Stage 1+ 93 tune / uniconnect+
-CTS Turbo inlet installed
-CTS Turbo turbo exh delete installed
-Intake box gutted, drop in AFE dry filter
-Resonator delete installed
-H&R ss springs installed
-RS3 grill installed, rear debadged, black rings added
-Black vinyl on all chrome window trim
-Clear mount phone holder added
-Sunglass holder in factory ds handle
-15mm spacers rear, 10mm front
Now, I plan on retrofitting an oem push to start with the oem console piece. I'm sure it can be done, but haven't found any info on someone doing it yet (just aftermarket on similar models). I'd like to do a retrofit of keyless door entry / convenience key as well, but first things first.
Also looking for some feedback on either an android updated screen/or system, and back up camera.
Here's a potato pic of the car after a good week of upgrades
