Not much left to do, the hardest being intercooling piping. It's a pain in the arse as the throttle body is on the wrong side so going run a fair bit of piping. Instead of using joiners we will try to weld it so it's once piece and reduce the risk of boost leaks

I'm currently overseas for a couple months so my mechanic will be doing first start and run in for me. I'm hoping to get the car run in by end of December

I'm already looking at potential turbo upgrades :-$

nice mods list mate and the project is coming along well. really surprised you're running 19's on this though, doesn't appear to suit the performance direction its taken in my opinion. guess you'll find out how they run when its back on the road, i could be wrong.

keep up the good work and updates when you can...

Thanks man, gonna get rid of the 19's looking for different. I got a set of TT wheels which I plan on running on the track.

Did you end up selling your a3?

tt wheels should be good for the track wrapped in some grippy tyres. still got the a3 and will be doing more work on that soon as pretty much done with the s3…… for now…

all the best with your build and keep the updates coming
