Hello!   :happy2:
I finally decided to join up, looks like you have some nice motors on here, I recognise quite a few.
CupraK1 introduced me to the site.
I have an Audi S3 8P running Revo Stage 2+ with a few other tweaks....

LOL, Thanks!
Well I am a huge Golf fan, Before the S3 all I'd ever had were Golfs.
This one is still in the family...

It's a nice car, fully loaded too, but probably the most wasted Ed30 in the country IMO.
My old man bought it to drive to the station and back....  I had it for a couple of months while I was waiting for the S3, but other than that it does about 1.5 miles every weekday.  If it were mine, it would be a beast!

So do I TBH, I think it's noise more than anythything else...  the S3 is a great handling car and it's built well, has power once tinkered with just doesn't have the V6.  You tinkered with the Ed30 yet?  or tracked it recently?

Thanks, I think they are great.  I frefer it to be a little firmer than stock although I'm currently running them in the middle of the range.  The KW's were too soft IMO.
