the standard S3 is 265bhp for europe.

for the hotter countries (SG,dubai etc) the tuning is slighly different, probably richer mixtrure. so the output is less at 256bhp.

but 9bhp down, i dont think you can even feel it with the seat-of-your-pants dyno-axx

 

BTW i am not a PA salesman. i am a customer.

Not just sucking cold air i believe. Since this is a high boost engine FSI somemore, cold tempertaure around intercooler reduces chance of engine detonation hence allowing the engine to run higher timing and hence higher power.

DSG is only avaliable for the Tranverse engine layout for 2.0TFSI FWD only.

it is not avaliable for quattro 2.0TFSI version. however the VR6 transverse engine has DSG.

 

Also if youre wondering why the new A4/A6s dont have DSG yet. they are longitunidinal engine layout, DSG at preent does not have an application for the logitudinal engine as yet.

 

In a S/RS car. the audi purists mostly want manual.

 

the torque rating for DSG is about 420Nm. horsepower is of no concern. there are 313bhp tuned GTIs/A3 Sportbacks running around locally with no problems to the DSG box.

 

hope this helps

The units coming to singapore will have hot climate specifications, including uprated intercoolers and radiators.

 

interestingly the stock boost from factory is 1.2 bar already for the S3. if you send it to the tuners they will dial it up more. there is already a B&B tuning S3 kit with 400+BHP!

is it a trend where the front portion some how looks like suzuki swift and the VW golf GTI, together with this RS3.

 

 

wher the middle front portion stretches from the bonnect down to the bumper.

 

Nice cool car.. [inlove][thumbsup]
