Haldex System?? ... Never heard of it and probably most Audi drivers haven't either. But testing this S3 in extremely raining conditions made me realise how good it is in the wet!
Hopefully i'm going to get Ben to bring me back and RS3 or RS6 ... or anything RS so we can have some more fun in the rain!

Need to release the brake sooner for the launch guys, otherwise you loose boost! Also, humid weather slows down combustion. Hence, 5.4 second 😂
From The first launch I'm thinking ; Of course your not going to get the claimed 0-60 with an extra 100 kgs in the car!!!
100kgs??? We’re both very slight and delicate, how very dare you 💪🏼
@@EVILGT HA! Great to hear you have both been on Weight watchers since this was filmed!!
Humid weather also doesn't help power wise. for a turbo engine a dry cold weather gives best results
I don’t know about you Ben but if I knew I had to go on a diet to get these 0-60 times then I wouldn’t have bothered with this UA-cam channel 😂😂😂
Haldex is working well , but obvious u won’t get claimed time when is heavy rain, it will get wheel spin anyway
I’m really enjoying these kinds of candid car reviews with your friends. The S3 is a solid car! Just need a tune and down pipe to get going. You guys should do a track day or canyon run.
Thanks 😊 I’m doing a track day tomorrow in my GTR ... can’t wait 😃
You’re living the dream sir.
I’m still looking for a 17+ GTR with low miles but only 2 for sale in entire state of California and both look beat and listed at 90% of MSRP. I know you owned GT3’s in the past, do you think they’re overpriced (used) for what they are? Internally debating between GTR and 991.1 GT3.
GT3's are still expensive and not as overpriced as they once were. I had my old one up for sale through the dealer for about 3 months and now with the economic downturn i don't think anyone can expect to get big prices. All i can say is that for day to day use my GTR is spot on for me, i couldn't live with a GT3 everyday, but lots of people do.
Started from the first video. Miss you two working together. Judging by the change in house & cars Lee’s business is going well. 👏
I’ve found in my S4 if I sit with the launch activated like that bouncing at 3k for any longer than a couple of seconds things get too warm and the clutches can start to slip. The upswing method works best on the S4 where you release the break just before it reaches what your launch is set at
The last launch the clutch was definitely slipping so we will try your method
Sitting with the brake and accelerator pressed at the same time doesn’t do it any good and it it gets very hot very fast!
VAG hot hatches seem to have been dialed down quite a lot since they were fitted with OPF's. They've all taken a toll in performance when compared to the previous versions without the particulate filters.
Great video!
This is why I went for the 2017 model 310 bhp saloon with a res delete.
@@thatboy8991 Those were probably the best ones in terms of performance, just before OPF's became mandatory.
Did the opf kick in after 2019/2020 cars?
“My expertise, fast fingers” 😂
So glad you and Ben started doing things together. You’s bounce off each other so well 👌
Haldex is quality bud its even on bugatti lambo and many other manufacturers even xdrive is now a form of haldex bud 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Only Ben would do this in his company car 😂
I've got a Golf R WLTP OPF 300PS car and did 4.5s with a dragy in the dry. Car is stock. Only tried a launch once so may be able to improve on that.
I have 310ps S3 , best launch I could do stock was 4.5 , did a stage 1 APR and now is 3.7
Always felt these were quicker than my 300hp opf S3. Might just be in my head I don’t know...
EVIL GT i think they are, my 3 door 2018 does it in 4.3. I’ve a feeling the opf restricts it a bit even though it’s slightly up on torque
I like watching the older gen s3 videos (I have a 23 s3) I would like to mod my engine one day but a little tepid about doing so. Any suggestions as to what I could do without modding the engine? Do filters and exhaust actually help?
There’s something in development that might be of interest to be honest. Hopefully get the video done soon 👍🏼
I’ve done 4.32 in the dry gpf car with mps4
Same hit 4.3 in dry with Gpf model
"5.7 seconds jhezze thats slow " then theirs them 17 year old flying about in their Vw up 0-60 in 12 seconds " its rapid bro tm can top a ton " 😂😂😂
😂😎😂
Interesting video! I was hitting 4.3 in my 2018 when it was "Bogo" - pre OPF version though, I'm stage 2 now hitting a best of 3.48 and an average of 3.6. having a V4 technics turbo fitted next week though... should be looking at sub 3.2's
Great video's though guys! not long started my own content - you're definitely refreshing to watch on youtube!
😳
I’ve had an S3 and consistently under 0-60 tests in the dry been getting 4.3 secs. Doesn’t help when holding the phone to measure times as needs to be in fixed position for gyroscopes not to move and activate or deactivate prematurely
Goes off the dragy device mate not the phone and uses GPS 👍🏼
@@EVILGT I mean trying to get 4.5 sec 0-100 kmh in wet environment is gonna be hard for a S3.
nice to see ASOT Armin Van Buuren on the player 06:41
Class 👌🏼
It is slow, but it’s carrying a lot of weight in the wet
It has really long seat belts though.:)
Also dont forget when Audi do these 0-60 times, not only do they use a 6st race driver, but the car only has a thimble full of race fuel in it! A full tank weighs a LOT!
Huh? Audi pretty much always publishes a slower 0-60 than the cars are capable of. I dont get your point.
This is rubbish and not true. See comment above.
There is spin, just look at the revs staying in red before the first change.
That was launch 5 and an overheating clutch I think. 100% no wheel spin mate 👍🏼
Great engines these and work well with the DSG. Very strong and seem to put out more power than quoted. I’ve got a new Leon Cupra 290 and I absolutely love it. You guys based in Manchester by the way?
Very close to Manchester yeah 👍🏼 Thanks for watching
Gotta try a golf r
I’m amazed there’s no wheel spin. My s4 b8.5 stage1 spun all 4 wheels in the wet. Maybe Pirelli Pzeros are to blame 🤷♂️
Sounds about right mate 😕
Thank you for this comment! I had P zeros on my A3 before and found the same. Now buying an S3 on Pzeros and going to change them immediately! Terrible in the wet so they are...
Jezzzzz man you two weigh about 200kg together, got to factor in that weight !!!!
Very true my friend 🙃
Cheeky that
Changing oil is easy .You guys should do that evry 6mts mannol oil off ebay gr8 price buy a load works out cheaper good oil an good price add zx1 extralube will add bit extra power an protect engines .
Bless you guys, ha ha
Thanks for the video chaps, really interesting.
In the wet, that S3 is miles quicker than my 411bhp M140i lol !
I think I'd beat it to 60 in the dry, and after 60 just disappear into the distance :-)
It’d be about 4.4 - 4.5 at a guess in the dry. Your 140i would abuse it after 60mph 100% mate 👍🏼
6:57 . That wasn't launched at full boost
Did you put it in dynamic mode?..You keep mentioning Auto mode..if that’s the case you were not launching the car properly! It’s actually 0-60 in approximately 4.3 seconds!
Automatic gearbox we were referring to not manual mate 👍🏼
@@EVILGT ..I know that! But you have to pull the lever back one more time so the Automatic gearbox is now in sport mode or use the drive select feature to select Dynamic! The car will idle slightly higher..all exhaust valves will now be opened and “S” will be displayed on the cluster. If in Auto mode , “D” will be displayed! I was actually cheering you on when you figured out that traction control has to be turned all the way off and weight reduction will assist, and you recognize that it’s wet!
Love the content...S3 owner ...from Jamaica 🇯🇲! You two keep it natural and real!
Yes mate. When you put it into Dynamic from any other drive select model it automatically puts your gearbox into sport. I sold these cars for 3 and a half years buddy 👍🏼 thank you for watching
The car is actually faster than stated in the manual, as Audi tends to understate their 0-60 times!
@@EVILGT ..ohhhh ok..really? And you didn’t know you had to turn traction control, all the way off? Was it just for content, you were messing up the launches? :( ! You were actually putting pressure on the diff! :(..That said the RS3 is nice and subtle! That’s the intention of the design! Minimalist and Sleeper !
Looking forward to more content 👍🏾!
Heldex system is sharing the torque to all for wheels and a drive chain which made for all wheel drive the car not just front wheel drive 95% for front wheels have torque but the 5% to the rear wheels which is shit the Torsen system you actually get 40% to the front and 60% to the rear and you don’t the need to upgrade the controller because there isn’t a controller for the awd system not with the Torsen but with the haldex you do
U lifted the gas and you don’t need to change gear in Manuel either
Can't you smash the diff when you keep doing launch control?
Maybe? Not sure 🤷🏼♂️
Did you work for audi Ben... I didn't no pal 🤣🤣
😂
Did Ben sell them shoes to start the channel?
😂😂😂
Hi guys, where can you get the draggy thing your using?
dragymotorsports.co.uk
Love this car but becareful audi have a monitoring system to see how many times you've launched the car, if the gearbox went and you tried to say it wasn't your fault they'd try to blame the amount of times you launched it, cheeky bastards, amazing car all the same 🔥
Thanks for the heads up bud. The S3 has gone now, check out the rest of our videos to see what it’s been replaced with 👍🏼 thanks for watching
On the other hand nothing a good tuning/tech company could not erase :)
Was this bens debut?
This it was yeah 👍🏼
Hi can you do something no fuel economy on the s3 or focus rs cheers
I can tell you that my stage 2 S3 2017 gets 6.8 L/100 on a run and averages 7.7 commuting. and get to 0-100km/h in 3.7 seconds
What the app?
Dragy GPS £129.00 well worth the money 👍🏼
the audi will be limiting it's own power to maximise grip in bad conditions equalizing wheel spin
I have a feeling there is something wrong with the car my mk7 R is faster
And the secound time u lifted
Don’t need to go any faster than 60 odd mph to record a 0-60 you see. The dragy won’t register a time unless you hit 60mph... which it did... thanks for watching again 👍🏼
EVIL GT didn’t say you didn’t hit 60 you get 63 but you let off
Go again no traction control manual and don’t lift and don’t touch the gears It will hit red line bounce twice and change. Same for all 7 brands in the VW AUDI GROUP 😀
I’m still confused with this 😂 you know it was a 0-60 right? Surely that’s like saying you hit 100mph and let off? 😅
EVIL GT look at your on video and listen 🎧 you will see
As much oversteer as you can eat
Weight = Slow
your pretty slow yourselves
Good one 🙄
HALDEX 🤮
