Is the new wheel you are getting the CEA 58mm? Your old wheel wasn't a CEA one, was it? If not, you might actually get a bit better spool with the CEA and maybe a little more power overall.

I had the 5857 CEA billet wheel, ceramic ball bearing. I'm not sure if that meant the turbine wheel was billet. I got great spool with the 5857 on the 1.8L. 30psi was achieved at ~4100rpm.

So I have a really good offer and opportunity to get myself in a 2015 Audi S3.... Only catch is I have to sell this B5 in order to get into the S3. I don't know what to do!!?? Hahaha

The dsg is pretty legit in sport mode or whatever.

with APR's flash the car will run 11.9 in the 1.4 I know "save the manual!!" haha That's the only downside, I love my manual cars.

I saw a brand new Golf R with the same motor as the S3 next door at Usp and they put the APR tune on it and threw it on the dyno(dynojet) and it made 400whp


hmm the TTRS should be around the same price range...and 5cyl turbo...

Let them work out the kinks first. Came across a couple threads where people had major warranty issues...like replacement engine necessary.

Big fan of that engine but whatttttt? Somethings wrong here Apr only claims 320 something whp and my buddys put down under 300 with the tune

That's what I said! Its the 2015 model and they ran the 100oct file. I contacted APR before I went over to Usp and they said 360chp, 332whp. Maybe this Golf R is just beast lol. They come with a K04 stock apparently(well at least a turbo bigger than the K03)

Tried to find the thread yesterday with the engine replacement, but the search engine was acting funny. I'll try again later.

[Urtorsen]

S3 all the way.

that's a beast of a turbo buddy should be fun!

Took the car home from the shop yesterday, boost comes in much quicker full boost ~3800-4000rpm before it was around 4500. The car pulls so smoothly I am actually quite shocked. Almost too smooth hahah. I need to save up now to re-ring the pistons because ever since I switched to e85 the blow by is insane. I am emptying my catch can every day(mostly e85).

Changed the color this past week. OEM Matched Nogaro Blue(RS) In our new AutoFlex High Gloss. Mirrors are Gloss Black AutoFlex High Gloss. This product can be sanded, buffed, waxed . It also is gas/chemical resistant. All while remaining completely removable

[xdewaynex]

That looks amazing.

[ray4624]

wow. Well done.
Really looks like their products are coming a long way!

[lowandslow4now]

[nynoah]

I bought the car with the radio and never found out who installed it or where they got it.

[Gaberossi]

i'll snap a few pics so you can see whats going on

[nynoah]

Auto flex burnt orange copper .... Want to see

[jaychen]

thanks dude

[Gaberossi]

I'll see if we can do that as a color for AF. only problem I see is we have already done that color in dip and made a video for it. We mainly make videos to showcase new products. but I rarely change the color up compared to the other cars(I just peeled the M3 for this week and just sprayed the RS7 and R8) so you never know what the Fonz may say about that color choice.

[jaychen]

any joy with the photo dude?

[Gaberossi]

Sorry dude it has been a while. Ive got the subwoofer setup in the rear and I would have to remove the speaker box to uncover the are where the pump is. Next time I remove them i will get you a pic.
