I just love the S3 so much!

I saw a new S3 kicking a 130i's butt in a street race the other day. Looovely. The 130i driver said it was the first race he had lost haha

Re: MTM takes Audi S3 to 325bhp

My main concern about this car, is that the smaller the engine relative to its power, the more turbo boost is required to achieve it, and the more turbo lag results.

Re: MTM takes Audi S3 to 325bhp

Turbolag can be an issue, whether or not the driveability of the car is impacted significantly is still not answered. An extremely laggy car would be difficult to drive around town wnd the driver would really need to know the car well in order to 'drive it well'. A car with a bit of turbolag wouldn't disappoint me to much if it had a high redline and the turbo had the balls to make the car a true kick in the pants.

If chipped and putting out 300+ hp, that wouldn't be too bad. I'll have to look up the weight of this car. If it is scoring 0-60 MPH in 5.7 sec - it must be a decent weight to hp ratio.
