With the liquidation of Dellboys RS3 spares coming to a close (still few items remaining, go check it out - http://www.audirs3oc...items-for-sale/)

It's probably about time I explained what's gone on...

First and foremost I absolutely love the RS3. It's such a great car, I've had many smiles in it and enjoyed tinkering with bits to try and make it stand out that little bit more in looks and performance.

I've always wanted to go a bit OTT on a car and considering I've had a fairly reliable RS since ownership i thought it's time to go a bit nuts now.

When you invest so much time and money into something (the Mrs springs to mind) it's worth just keeping hold of it and carrying on.

So I did...

TTE500
AP racing 6 piston big brakes [380mm front/ 355mm rear]
Goodridge front/ HEL rear brake lines
Motul RBF600 racing brake fluid
034 carbon intake
Forge FMIC
Bilstein B16 PSS10
Forge silicone hoses (charger circuit only)
Milltek turbo elbow decat downpipe
Bull X catback non res - carbon tips
HF series carbon RAM air
Uprated prop bolts
NGK spark plugs
Millers racing oil 5W40
HPFP autotech internals
Genuine A6 8.5j 20" wheels (now gone)
Genuine RS3 8V 8.5j/8J black diamond cut 19" wheels

So here's to many more smiles and years with the RS3...

MRC stage 3/ DSG map with overrun crackles [514ps/780Nm]

Very pleased with the outcome. Have Jason to thank for that system, she's loud.

Sounds great mate 👍👍, how are you getting on with the brakes, any good?

[T-800]

Very nice Jay......... i bet it's an even bigger beast now....

[JayRS3]

Sounds great mate , how are you getting on with the brakes, any good?

To be honest the original discs with redstuff pads is still capable unless you've always got your foot down (which I don't to be honest). I will report back on the AP racing brakes fitment tomorrow.

[T-800]

Jay do you get any noise from the slotted front discs ?

[JayRS3]

Very nice Jay......... i bet it's an even bigger beast now....

It's ridiculous. I don't think going from standard to big turbo helps really. No ease in period.

I've spoken to someone who has them on his 8V and says no noise/squeal at all on original calliper

Looks really good, Jay. That exhaust looks really nice. I'll have to watch the clip later to see how it sounds.

Boom, that is some "update"!

Very nice, the exhaust sits so much nicer than my Milltek. The cracks and pops sound good without being too over the top as well.

Yeah I've heard about the Milltek, bonus of the tips there adjustable. I wanted to follow the lines of the bumper

[T-800]

I'll be interested in your thoughts on the fronts once fitted Jay.

Will let you know mate.

Yeah the Milltek one does tend to hang a little lower for some reason. Just went and had a look at mine then, it could certainly be a snugger fit but it's not as low as some that I've seen. Still sounds nice though.

Sounds beautiful.. Hats off to you for not holding back. Top build Jay

[looch]

Awesome update!

[Mattjj82]

Ah so now all becomes clear! Bet its something else to drive now! 😁
Great mods to enhance what was already a great car without spoiling it! 👍

[SK-RS3]

Ohhhhhh only a few tweeks here and there then !
Bet she's an animal now
