I'd love another S3, would have DSG Sportback this time.  Going to have an ED30 again first then upgrade next year.

I think the S3 is such a capable car, when mapped

So in between a rock and a hard place here  :confused:
You're talking about figures of an ED30 stage 2+ not getting more tha 320 on the rollers???
How the he'll do Cupra K1's achieve 360-370bhp?? 
That skoda VRS got around 340 on the JKM rollers a few months ago when I was there.

There has been loads of threads on here mate with stage 3 k04 cars not quite making the same power as edition 30s / s3s / cupras with stage 2 + and a few tuners suggested that to me aswell thats one of the reasons why i chose not to go stage 3 and sell my GTI, maybe your car just produces a bit more, and brings it in line.
then again it could be due to different RRs

Once again, unless you compare cars on the same RR the argument is pointless. JKM's rollers have measured variious converted KO4's and factory KO4's and the average bhp is the same.

Secondly my mate has a Cupra stage 2+ which i have driven and have had a play against and it's NOT faster than my converted KO4.

I actually got a second hand proper S3 BHZ engine in the garage that i got very cheap thinking i would get more power but after researching the only reason i would fit it to my vRS is if i blew my own engine.

Berg, what makes you think an ed30 stage2+ wont be any quicker than a standard rs3. My brother in-law is stage 2+ and he went and test drove a rs3 which he was less than impressed with, he reckoned his ed30 would eat one alive.


Have you seen the Evo test with the RS3 versus the Volvo polestar test car? The RS3 was recording near to 4.0 seconds 0-60 times. Can a front wheel drive ED30 be that quick? Incidentally, the Volvo was quicker than the RS3 - hope they put it into production.

Dude, im not disputing its not a quick car. Obviously its got 4wd launch control and dsg which is gonna contribute to quick 0-60 times, he just said he didn't think he could justify paying 40k for something that he didn't think felt as quick as his ed30 stage 2+. I know what he means though because at inters this year i was on the strip against one of the players lads ttrs' , now he was putting down 0-60 times in the 3s i was in the 6s and my first time on the strip. The overall time of his was in the 12s and mine in the 14s, so over the quarter i had clawed probably a sec back. Makes you wonder what mine would have done if i had dsg 4wd and launch.

 :signLOL: don't worry mate I was the same.  What was your best 0-60 and quarter mile time?
I felt the surface was absolute rubbish with no traction whatsoever.  :sad1:
