Ok cheers.
Also getting DSG remap, will this make any difference?

The DSG remap is mandatory for stage 2+ on an Ed. 30. It will allow your engine to make what it can really do, since the box torque limiters will be altered. :wink:

The measured power is only for that particular set of conditions - I.e. a little room with only a fan for airflow. Out on the road, things are very different. More airflow and lower ambient temps.
Don't blindly follow the herd and bolt things on for the sake of it. Get confirmation the S3 cooler is restrictive from proper testing first. Stage 2+ turbo speeds kind of super heat the intercoolers anyway. You'd be better off running a bigger turbo to make the same power from more cfm and less pressure, and therefore less heat.
Good luck for Friday :happy2: I'd be happy with anything over 350hp on these old engines and turbos :smiley:

Thanks for the reply.
So what your saying is what power it makes on the dyno could be less than what it could put out on the open road?
Thanks i'm hoping this alongside the DSG remap should transform the car !

pretty much. A dyno is an idication of what pwoer the car makes on the day. when you drive ont he road it could be making a bit more power due to cooler airflow which you wouldnt get on a hot room in a dyno.
Just enjoy it anyway. You'll be grinning for ages!
Paradox1:
DSG map increases the torque limit, shifts higher and quicker. also stays in gear. can disable the kick down feature too

What do you mean mate? When I first rang to book stage 2+ they didn't mention about me needed DSG map i just decided myself to get it a month later.
Paradox1:
the stock DSG map has a limit which will be exceeded by a stage 2 map.
Bascially if you dont get a DSG map it will limit power output
