      Nice! They are fantastic cars. If you choose to begin modifying it (I’m sure you will) it’ll blow your mind as you progress through it

    Just got a 2015 s3 with 67k miles for like 20k it’s pretty super clean, stage 1 Unitronic tune with apr open air intake and it’s totally more than enough for my spirited runs through the canyon. Flashed it back to stock and enjoy the linear turbo response through canyons even more!!! Which surprised me. Just waiting to do a suspension refresh, rear sway bar and a Down pipe. Should be good to go after that.

    I appreciate you for all your insight and helpful advice... I have a 2105 a3. Currently in the middle of installing a Garrett PowerMax GT2260S turbo.... just waiting on my mechanic friend to have the time to finish the installation. Again I do appreciate you and your Chanel. Keep up the good work.

    Excellent run down Bro. I also loved the S3 when it came to the US in 2015, and always had it in the back of my head I would get one, but wasn't able to for many reasons until 2 years ago. When I finally did get one (2018 S3) I was ecstatic even in stock form for almost a year. Once I got into tuning and upgrades, It was truly an addiction. I went the 034 tuning route( VERY happy with, so refined and linear, goldilocks tune) and Im stage 2 now FBO and it's truly the BEST daily driver out of the 13 cars Ive had. I put 45000 miles on the car in those 2 years with ZERO problems and I drive my S3 HARD. I found at stage 2 when you stay out of boost I can get about 28 MPG highway which Im very happy with while putting it down when I need to .....Im at 11.9 for the quarter , just fast enough to keep me 100% content while maintaining high reliability and embarrassing a lot of cars I encounter on my travels. I especially enjoy pulling on chargers/ challengers/ mustangs LOL

    Been looking to trade up to a 997 or 991 911, but cant help but think that's a dumb idea since this car has been equally great to me as well. Only had mine for a year, but its just been all smiles.

    • @DArias
      @DArias  8 місяців тому +2

      Well let me tell you going to a 911 is so much different lol. If I had 911 money I would trade mine in a heartbeat. If you have the opportunity to obtain a 911 imo it’s a no brainer lol.

    Quick question, I got the denso racing plugs how often do you have to switch them?

    • @DArias
      @DArias  8 місяців тому +1

      Tbh I change them every other oil change. So about every 6k-7k miles. You should be good though however in the 10-15k range as long as you aren’t getting any misfires or knock

  • @S3_864

    Hey would sell any of your parts from your s3? If you swap around. I’m trying to get into platform and I want to do pretty much what you are at. That’s my goal as a daily at 450- 500.

    • @DArias
      @DArias  8 місяців тому +1

      If I ever decide to go a different route then I would part out and yes but as of now no. I will say however there are many different ways to achieve your power goal that are more cost effective
