Exactly. When it comes to the main bits, S3's are just VW Golfs in different skin. The S3 (and Golf R and even the GTI) is fantastic, and it's pretty quick with just bolt-ons, but there's no one on the planet who'd ever consider an S3 if that 5-pot upgrade were legitimately in their budget. And Audi knows the value of that engine, too, which is why they said no when VW came knocking asking to put it in the MK8 R. My only two gripes with the RS3 are that (1) we don't get the sportback in the states, and (2) we don't get a no-sunroof option in the states. Both of those issues can be remedied with a Golf R, but then of course you still lose the 12453.

I told you a few days ago, You can't sit on launch control for too long or it bogs down. By the way I owned a tuned S3 before my current RS3. The S3 has immensely better midrange and response than the RS3 but the RS3 has much better top end. My S3 APR stage 1(12.5@110), stage 2 (12.2@114). my RS3 stock (11.703 with traps of 117-119 mph) with a Uni E-85 tune 11.1@127 mph. For daily driver in traffic or twists the S3 Stage 2 outshines the RS3(Stock), on straight line acceleration the RS3 is the winner.

By far one of the best drag races, the similarities build suspense.

In my opinion it would have made a lot more sense to spend the $1500 on an intercooler upgrade over the carbon Fiber intake. Modify the stalk box (as seen in many videos posted on KZread ), upgrade the silicone hose and add the inlet elbow for $200. It was definitely heat soaking . Not to mention adding an aftermarket exhaust which would increase top End Performance for the S3 . The S3 Unitronic stage 2 TCU and ECU should be much closer if not beaten the RS3.

I said this in the chat but I'm sure it was lost. Going forward, please don't try to brake boost on VW/Audi cars in anything other than Sport/Dynamic mode. When you're in the correct mode, you have to jab the throttle really quickly, otherwise the ECU gets confused (stock and otherwise). In short, please stop doing brake boost in comfort/normal and you have to add throttle like you mean it. This isn't intuitive but that's how VW/Audi does it. The only times RS3 lost is when it didn't build boost properly. It's a quick car (11.8-12.2) typically depending on weather conditions.

OMG, you've got to use LAUNCH MODE when racing. You hold the brake, stand on the throttle to get the revs and boost up, then release the brake when it's GO time.

Never saw an Audi DCT that wasn't lightening fast in manual mode. I think the better deal would be the Standard S3 with the $4K in mods. That was obviously mod money well spent.

That s3 DSG slipped at 1st gear. Not sure if it was a clutch issue or just a nature of wet clutch dct. And RS3 cost more for a reason lol

Can you do a 2018/2019 m550 vs the 2020/2021 M550. i want to see what the difference is in power since 2020/2021 has 70 extra horsepower/tourque

The son has the old RS3 (360hp) tuned to 415hp and that thing is properly fast. Seriously doubt a 2020 RS3 won’t stand a chance despite having an extra gear.

Let's tune the 2020 RS3 as well and see who is faster shall we :-)

Owned a revo stage 2 s3 the s3 was a weapon mo doubt i now have a rs3. Rs3 is superior in by far. The chassis feels better, acceleration on stock vs stage 2 s3 is way better. And besides that my s3 broke a turbo and gearbox. So I'm staying away from tuning

Na your capping, stage 2 on the S3 beats a RS3 stage 1 in a REAL race, this video was rigged or something

I wish these car reviewers would stop saying/talking about Quattro as though it's only one system. Quattro is Audi's branded AWD, well full-time 4WD system. There are different versions, esp. depending on transversely-mounted versus longitudinally-mounted engines. So please say which Quattro system the car has and include the rear diff. too, since they aren't all the same.

Doesn’t the S3 have the haldex system like a golf R?

Yes it does and the Rs3 is quattro

Crazy to know the power they push out love them unfortunately I have to sell my 15 S3 due to back pain. One thing they have to change are the seats. Not good for long travel. I ended up doing therapy and hospitalized😔

Do an infiniti G37 plz
