which engine conversion suits best

[cabbron]

hi guys,sure this may have been done before but as a newby would love to hear your views.just wondering on the great honda/audi debate.whats the thoughts on whats best for road or track.i have an tt supercharged 230bhp s1 and you know how it is-always want more!help me decide please.obviously weights,driving dynamics play a big part.cheers

Speak to the people who do the conversion, test drive them, make your own mind up

yup - test drive both....main decision is if you like the turbo power delivery or Supercharger...I moved from a TT230 to a SC Honda 300 and its great...no option for 1.8T Audi in an S2 at the time

bogie you are just the person for passing on your impressions.i have driven a 300bhp ish audi s1.not entirely sure i liked the turbo delivery or gear change.problem is i live permanently in spain with my car-impossible at this momment to try a honda.i think i like the sound of having the honda conversion,less torque but better heat effiency(important here) and i imagine a real screamer higher up the rev range.i also beleive maidstone are working on a charge cooled 330ish upgrade.still want driveabilty though,hows yours?thanks

And if you're bringing it over here for the conversion I'd be interested in your TT

where about in Spain are you?

I´ll be in Huesca in July, you could try my S2 Honda JDM spec.
