Last week, Milltek downpipe added with, possible increase of 30-40bhp, definitely feel the increase, on rollers next week to check map (new one?) & figures. Know the fl is more precise due to block lightness but, this thing sounds insane...especially with the recent upgrades, quick enough 😁

    Been waiting for an honest comparison like this for ages - I own a 65 plate PFL RS3 with dynamic package etc and have had it for a few years now.... totally agree with your comments on it, yes its a total sound machine vs FL and OPF but feels very wobbly on roads and a feeling of disconnect in a weird way when driving. In a straight line it feels great but thats it... my other half's mk7 Golf GTI PP feels more alive and fun to drive if Im honest... but that sound of the RS is something else. I would think about upgrading to a FL pre OPF... but barely drive anymore!

    • @ohZyki
      @ohZyki Рік тому

      I have a pfl rs3 now for 2 years and I agree with everything you said. I have a few handling mods like lowering springs, lightweight rims, michelin ps4s square setup, upper and lower dog bone mount and the car still feels a bit disconnected to the road and quite wobly in a way. I have a race spec wheel alignment and the car drives straight and wherever you point it but it just doesnt feel super stable. I drove a stage 1 APR tuned facelift and it is a worlds difference. I'm looking to list my pfl for sale very soon to upgrade to a 2018 pre OPF facelift. Did you end up getting a facelift?

    Just curious, have you driven a pre-facelift / post-facelift S3? And if so, is there just as much differnce in those cars as there is in the RS models?
    I'm in Australia and shopping for a car now, with a max budget of around $50,000. The pre-facelift S3's are going for about $35,000 AUD, while the post-facelift S3 and pre-facelift RS3 are both ballpark around the $50,000 mark.
    What I'm wondering is, in your opinion:
    a) Is the post-facelift S3 worth the price jump over the pre-facelift model?
    b) If you had a choice betweenb a pre-facelift RS3 or a post-facelift S3 for the same price, which would you rather?

  • @Rommellollis
    @Rommellollis 2 роки тому

    Nice video! Thanks!
    hamza...something interesting:
    the staggered wheel setup (from factory) you have from pirelli / conti..255 front (8.5J rim) and 235 rear (8J rim) is quite specific to the RS models...it must have the "R02" marking on them.
    if you go with another tyre manufacturer like Michelin Pilot Sport 4S...255 front and 235 rear..the haldex is totally confused and you have traction light kicking in under normal driving conditions. So what the guys do is to solve the issue is just to put the traction control light off permanently (this is not the correct way to fix it and puts a lot of strain on your haldex) - i believe the circumsfere is not correct with the non OEM R02 255/235 combo setup.
    When you compare the 235/35/19 Michelin PS4s with the Pirelli / Conti 255/30/19 R02....you will actaully see the 235 from Michelin is wider / just as wide.
    So what the guys do is..for better traction..better turning..a tyre that outlasts these "R02" tyres by mileage and performance by far....we go to a "square setup"...meaning...we go 235/30/19 all round with the Michelin PS4s.
    Perhaps you know this already, but thought I'll just share.
    Stay well & stay safe..regards from RSA.

    Hi Hamza! Did you do some break-in on your audi? I've taken a delivery of my own RS3 lately, and it's only 300 kms and I do not have a heart to push it like you. What did your advisor said in salon? In Poland they stated that they are already after break-in however in states people say that they are advised to do some break-in for like 1500km. What do you think about it?

      Hi, I bought mine with 350 miles already on it, pushed it pretty much straight away. But general guide is 1000 miles if you want to be safe, I’ve never had issues with hard run in though in the past
