RS5 Stage 3

[detti]

Hello,
Does anyone have experience with a Stage 3 conversion on the RS5 2018 ?
It will be installed the intake, exhaust, intercooler and hybrid charger.
Just like the conversion of HGP or MTM.
Should have 615HP and 819NM (german units)

Has anyone done such a conversion?

- How is the drivability in daily traffic
- How are the acceleration values 0-60mph and 60-125mph?
- Are you satisfied with the conversion, and would you do it again?

Thanks

How many miles/km on the car? Depending on that, you may have to replace a lot of other parts to make the motor and car reliable for this type of build.

Hi thanks for the answer.
What I am looking for is a real experience with such a rebuilt vehicle.
The reason is: I have this conversion for a while and I am a little dissatisfied.

Hi there.
I am on a stage 3 RS5B9 2018 model.
TTE720s hybrid turbos
APR carbon intake
Bespoke ECU & Trans tune
Resonator delete BullX
BULLX 200 cells HJS downpipes
Wagner intercooler.
Stock HPFP (needs upgrading as cannot handle the demand), will be exchanged and looking for suitable option there (living in europe).

Power output measured on DynoFlow 4wd.. crank numbers
670 hp
883 Nm
Turbos running at 2.25 bar.
Recently tuned back a little due to the fact OEM pump cannot handle the demand.

Overall smooth ride and very powerfull from abt 3000rpm until the end....
Ride quality on 20 inch normal in D.

No regrets here and just one more thing to upgrade....the HPFP.
We measured it while driving and OEM pump could not be close to what was needed in terms of fuel demand...leading to stalls.
Currently tuned back a little with 2.05 bar turbo pressure until the HPFP is in.

Thanks for your detailed experience.

My performance data is slightly lower than your 615hp and 795nm.
My problem is the quick start or even at launch start.
I have round about 1sec delay until the right power comes. Then until the end the RS goes super fast.
0-100kmh is only 3.9sec in normal start, 3.2sec with launch control that is too slow in my opinion, because of the delay.
100-200kmh is 6.7sec.
My problem now is how do I get rid of this delay at launch. Someone told me i have to adjust/change the wastegates, but I don't know how.
Regards Detti

@Rikmek I'm planning stage 3 with a similar setup. Any error light with the BullX 200 cells HJS downpipes? I want to avoid spacers and curious if this worked without further modification (hardware or software).

I have a Stertman custom ECU and TCU Stage 3 tune with upgraded Turbosystems turbos. Audi has always had a slight delay from the pedal even on my 2014 S4. I think that is the gas pedal itself with the electronic sensor. If you launch it there is no delay on mine. I have 621 HP and 595 lbs Torque. My RS5 runs great. I am on an E35 tune also to keep engine temps down.

I was thinking the same thing, the launch control builds boost, so as soon as you let the brakes go, it should scream start to finish. Same with my RS3, there is always a slight delay when you stomp the pedal.
