    I’m thinking about getting a 2016 a3 with 69k miles on it looks to have been very well taken care of I’ve always liked Audi :)

    I've been running apr stage 1 since 4,000 miles with e30 before anyone was actually tuning for it (I'm on 93 map but it auto comps) it seems eqt puts down some real solid numbers but my car has been such a reliable animal with apr.. seems they gave up on our platform tho ... can't even get stage 2 with them

    Nice setup man! I just got EQT stage 1 for my 8v A3 as well. I see that you're running spacers - what width do you have front and rear and what brand did you go with?

    What exactly do you need for a a3 stage 1 tune? Do you need any upgrades before the chip? I have a 2019 a3 and want a little more performance from it.

      Stage 1 doesn't require much. I recommend a turbo inlet pipe and intake. That's about it. I also recommend to get tuned by EQT. Faster and smoother

    • @DarinDzy

      100% recommend the dsg tune. It's your transmission. It will give you way faster shifting and it'll hold rpm longer before shifting. Night and day difference!!

      Get the tune that has the gas near you. If all you have is 91 then get 91. If you tune for 93 then you can't run anything less than 93
