I'm sure you could, I've seen R32 turbos with them?
Hedge:
I think the TTRS runs a Gen 4 Haldex and correct me if I'm wrong but the S3 and R32 run earlier, less capable systems.
My understanding is that the Gen 4 is more predictive in it's moving of power.
George:
I stand corrected

The 8P1 S3 and R32 run Gen 2, the later S3 and TTRS run Gen 4 IIRC, the later systems react more quickly making them more predictable.
But I have never found mine anything like unpredictable on the track, the exact opposte in fact, it lets you get away with murder :laugh:

Gaz I'm not being biased just because I own a rocco pal that's obviously only fwd.it's obviously also the whole way my car is setup with regards all the extensive mods, cage etc which helps a great deal with cornering and grips levels. I have owned and tracked quite a few my previous cars being a mk5 r32 and a s3, the s3 is obviously the better of the pair due to the heavy lump. However the s3 just isn't as nimble as the track rocco. I know it's different as its pretty much race spec, I would say put a standard s3 and a standard rocco together and I'd fancy the s3 obviously, but when we're on these type of forum people aren't interested in standard just the mods etc if you know where I'm coming from. :happy2:
