With the new trick valves i.e. super tunable. The EA888 A4/A5 and MY12+ TT go from 209bhp to 305bhp on a Revo Stage 1

K04 turbo..... ED30/S3 fuel pump or its that upgraded?

It's totally different to the ED30 / R / S3 engines Rich

They've basically done the new GTI engine with a K04 finally  (like what JKM has done and got ~360bhp) and settled with a  safe 300ps for reliability

Shoud be way more economical too

Ahh ok... so its a mk6 GTI lump with K04
Title: Re: Audi S3 2013
Post by: chungster on December 28, 2012, 08:21:10 pm
Yup  :happy2:

But usual strengthened internals I'd imagine so more headroom to play with

400bhp on S2+ maybe??

And out of reach to us mere mortals with a £30k+ price tag too most likely.   :grin:

Why don't they just put an R32 engine in it? I've heard they're quicker?

38900 Euros?, that will mean a UK price of around £34K then?

Knowing Audi that price is probably without windscreen wipers and floor mats  :signLOL:

Audi surely have to keep the price competitive with the M135 so hoping for no more than £32k base price he says hopefully  :driver:
