like i said earlier in the thread i was going to do my golf mk3 vr6 that was off the road at the time so i got the audi to drive while doing it but i had to sell the vr6 as i didnt have storage for it and it had been sat for a few months.So i just kept the audi and worked on that, every one who has seen it likes it but its not to every ones taste like i said.

It that a real VR6? Or a 1.4 Golf with the VR6 badge on the back?

Your Audi is not an S3, never has been and never will be and given your engine and spec list you're current car is good for 260bhp max. I put a substantial amount of money into development of a big turbo kit for the 1.8T engine many moons ago and achieved 343bhp with an IHI VF34 Turbo, the K04 unit its a turbo which on the 1.8T will see a max of 270bhp reliably on a BAM engine (S3 engine, which yours does not have).

I'll have to let you know when I sell my daily driver Passat 130PD TDI, I'll tell you is an RS4 Passat and sell it to you for say, what £8000, deal?

OP...

Not trying to be harsh... but you spent £16k on the fezza replica.

now you are going to do a lot more work on it for say another £10k.

So now you are £27k or so in.

Ferrari 348 = £25k+
Ferrari 355 = £30k+
Ferrari 360 = £36k+
Ferrari 430 = £60k+

So you are spending more on your cars and insurance than you would if you bought the 355/360...

And then you actually have a ferrari that will snap gstrings at 100m.

Well, that went pretty much as expected. I still dont know how well the "fezza" went round the 'ring though.

They are not drivers cars - you have chav'd them.
Do you have rolling road print out of 320bhp for audi?

I'm usually a lurker but this thread has kept me entertained since I arrived at work this morning.. just to urinate on your chips a little more.....

You're quoting a 315BHP output for your sexually confused Audi. If this is the BHP reading your OBD II data reader is giving out (is it a scangauge?) then its bks.. the only way to find out your BHP is to stick on on a R/R

Oh and in IMHO they're both turd..! but you could well learn from this thread, get em flogged have a good read of PH, work out what you want and then get something half decent!

See its not all bad

Something tells me the only thing it's lapped, is the local town centre.

Someone saw you coming.

I own a lovely bridge in London, can I interest you in purchasing it?
