Wheel spin at low rpm is a sign of a shit map. Loads of low end torque which makes it feel quick but loses power top end. All that does is kill the clutch

And turbo cars give a false impression of speed.

You look more cramped in the s3 than you did in the Golf R. Is the golf that much bigger?

I know you say the interior i nice an by all means I dont disagree...However the golf was/is already inline with what the next generation A3/s3/rs3 will be which is most probably amongst the lines of the new generation A1.... You can't even compare the infotainment as its night and day with the touch screen...and with most things revolving amongst CarPlay and android auto as far as this goes, it really makes the current audi a/s/rs3 range really and i mean really ancient since vw have had this system for much longer and can even be retrofitted into older vw generations.

Was gonna tune a 2020 Honda Accord but tuning an s3 sounds way better and more my size. Ive been driving a 13 civic for like 6 years now. They have the same exact dimensions. The rs3 is way out of my price range but we can make an s3 happen no problem!nn

heater vents are out of an Austin Maxi or Morris Marina!!!

Please please please tell me what that music was @ 0:22 ?? It sounds real nice

Good video but it's too short, as was the previous video on this car

hi Calvin.have you ever had any 335d e92 2007? i got one,after month of owning both turbos suddenly died one day cost me 1200 to recondition lol n now it says warranty invalid will be if i remap it,...hehe...must be that remap can cause some damage to turbos then aswell

Get a map from a reputable tuner and there is very little chance of any issue. Don’t get a box, they are just manipulating the signals between the fuel pressure sensor, MAP sensors etc and the ECU. You always hear about the one that goes wrong. The amount of Golf R’s and S3’s with a stage 1 map and you hear about one here and there. Quite a few cars with TTE 525 and Turbo Technics turbos running 500+bhp on stock internals. The EA888 engine is pretty robust.
