Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

That was my rationale .. I only wanted that and Satnav & MDI. Everything else I thought was good if you had the coin to throw around.Originally posted by brimway View PostCurrent Ride: MY 16 Daytona Pearl Grey Audi S3- Performance Pack 1, Sunroof and Driver assistComment

Took the R out to the APR organised dyno day in Canberra today.
Recorded 188.5kW at the wheels with just the stage 1 tune and no hardware.
Not a bad starting point considering the only work done to the car so far is with a laptop.
Will post up the dyno graph when I can scan it in.Comment

Yeah thats pretty good.. generally it is around that for most stage 1 tunes, it will be a few KW difference but I think it has more to do with the dyno than the car.
Best bang for buck, a stage 2 & 3 you wont get the same level of uplift.Current Ride: MY 16 Daytona Pearl Grey Audi S3- Performance Pack 1, Sunroof and Driver assistComment

Yup, pretty happy with that as a starting point - to my mind that's how it should have come from the factory.Originally posted by SilvrFoxX View Post
There wasn't a Stage 3 R there today that I know of, but a Stage 3 S3 pulled 255kW at the wheels which is the benchmark we are now aiming for with my car.
Anyway, the dyno graph:

Did you get torque figures, I have mine but they are combined so it is nearly 500nm which is a tad confusingCurrent Ride: MY 16 Daytona Pearl Grey Audi S3- Performance Pack 1, Sunroof and Driver assistComment
