Thanks for the warm welcome, got quite alot of modifications planned so will start a thread once there is more progress. Currently waiting on my H&R springs to arrive, HPFP group buy, MV Sport DP & 100cell Sports Cat, REVO Stage 2+ Powder Coat Wheels - black or anthracite still not decided. Getting Sachs Performance Clutch fitted monday, its rated to 480+ NM torque so will be more than capable. Currently running the forge catch can kit, its one of my favourite mods, still amazed at the amount of waste that it collects. Considering installing uprated Anti Roll bars but not sure whether to go H&R full kit or source a rear anti roll bar e.g. neuspeed. Anyone got any reccommendations? Any other worthwhile mods i have not mentioned?

Cheers Davie

My mate has an Ibis white S3 with black alloys, once i get mine lowered i will try on his alloys and take some pics to get an idea. I was thinking anthracite but after washing my car the other day i was thinking how well the bright silver looks. Decisions decisions...

I think both anthracite and black would work Davie, but trying them first hand is very wise.
Make sure you take lots of pics and post them here  :happy2:

Seen a couple of SO S3's with black rims mate and they look stunning IMO. Really finishes it off. Looks to me like it will be one nice motor once finished. (Not that it's not now of course  :wink:)

http://audi-sport.net/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=4522&title=s3-8p-cold-air-intakecaiforge-motorsport-induction-kit&cat=15 Theres a Forge CAI for you £300 from forge you could prob get this one for £200ish if you haggle. You will be drinking slimfast milkshakes next if you can drop 0.1 sec haha
H&R Springs finally came today ordered them 23rd December and thats them just coming not the kind of service you would expect. Think i will boost up to crail also hopefully running Stage 2+ by then  :grin: most boys running Revo Stage 2+ make around 350 - 370bhp should be fun. What you think you will be running after the HPFP with the Audi Map?

Not sure about black and orange need to see what its like withs paul's wheels on it. The black optics grill is tidy but a bit pricy for a piece of plastic lol would be better buying a standard one and getting it painted black.
