Be very interesting to see whether these map at all well on Stage 1... as on the face of it, it's already a Stage 1 K04 2.0 TFSI.

Completely different cylinder head turbo combo.
No longer turbo and manifold in one setup.

Turbo had t3 style flanges on the manifold.

Good to hear - So perhaps standard RS3 power is on the cards with an ECU flash.

Yep could flash straight to 340-350hp, but I still think the rs3 engine will have the legs at higher speeds.

S3 is up on the Audi configurator. I just specced mine to £38,175.  :sad1:

I didnt even add magnetic ride or some of the other options.

£36,200 without B&O and S-Tronic.

To be fair I did spec one with Nav, S-Tronic, parking camera, bose and a few other bits for under £35k, so it's not THAT bad. I bet the Merc will be Mission Impossible to spec with any must have options for under £40k. I dare say those lush seats will be gulp worthy on their own..

Merc is £38k+ base spec, £1500 aero, £531 AMG exhaust, so thats already £40k without even looking at tasty options.

Got mine to £35,325 for a car i would be happy with. Went for a manual rather than S-Tronic and base paint rather than any "fancy" paint. Still a long way off the initial £29,820 it started at though and not sure i would actualy go and pay that much for an S3, can get much more for your money i feel.
