Cold tyres on the stock launch, warm tyres on the tuned launch 🧐🤔

Wow.4.07 stock is the slowest I've seen on a rs3

@perpetualintellectual2026 2 жыл бұрын

Wasn't the best run or launch.....ideally they should do 3 runs and average it out.

I agree 3.8-3.9 is pretty standard for stock RS3 although he did admit he isn’t the best driver.

Cold tyres, you can see and hear it slip. Yet the tuned launch, warm tyres, no slip 🤔

They have a Stage 1+ for min 98 RON and they claim 500 bhp with GPFs on but with upgraded intake and intercooler and DSG tune as well. Nothing about this one?

Any longevity issues with tuned cars? Whilst I appreciate still within safe engine parameters etc.

@awesomecars1 2 жыл бұрын

We haven't had any issues over the years, but we recommend the servicing and regular maintenance of the vehicle is carried out more often with a tuned vehicle.

I would like to know if after installing Stage1, has the unwanted lag reduced considerably?

@710nerDeckel 18 күн бұрын

not if you keep the stock tcu flash on it. Has nothing to do with the ECU. It even gets worst if you just flash the ecu

its old but i tought and iam keep getting blamed for pushing 100-200 only 9.58 seconds consistantly at a DA of 1145m with a slope of 2.3 uphill. Seeing this close to DA 120m is a bit concerning...

It appears the rear differential go so often on Audi high performance cars which could be an expensive experience. My question, isn't there a fix for this when modifying Audi high performance cars ?
