dealers are not supposed to take deposits before the order bank opens. In the usa that will not be until January. You are lucky to have yours open now. If they did take a deposit, and you can prove it, you can use it as leverage to reduce your price! If the order bank is open for you, what color did you choose, I see the Merlin Purple is available on most countries we page configurations... I doubt it for the US, but I am hoping.
So, you kept the original backbox, and only installed the Milltek catless downpipe with the OPF delete. Is this right? Do you feel any kind of drone inside the car? Thank you
That's right yep, It's a decent amount louder on startup and warming up inside the car, but I wouldn't say it drones in everyday conds once driving/cruising
I was also annoyed by how many steps had to be taken to turn off lane assistance, but after 6 months of use I realized that there is a very easy way to turn off that function, at least it is enough to press and hold the button on the direction indicator, turn signals for about 2 seconds and on the monitor graphically displayed lines on the road disappear,
Hi Racingline box, isn’t the way to go …. U should have rather gone JB4, it’s a way way better option and is more user friendly. You basically at ure limit with the Racingline box, only way to get more out of it is to go to E30 fuel mix 37.5 psi is definitely to high, and needs to be dropped to 29-32 psi to improve that 0-100. Because u can’t change the boost level for 1st and 2nd gear on the racingline box u get what u get on the 0-100. Get upper and lower dogbone inserts, it’s much needed to improve the launch and overall drive.
Thanks for this :) I'll drop the pressures a little but I drive it daily so no need for 29, ultimately i'm just waiting for Unitronic to make the mods worth it, I have the lower dog bone installed.
@@kevbev89unbeknownst to me (before someone pointed it out) I can still just hold the button on the end of one of the smaller stalks to turn off lka, but yeah stop/start needs to clicked off every drive, also we have OPFs, it’s a sad world!
Hi Mate, nice video. Just want to point out a few things your clutch is slipping with this tune and I'm noticing mega lag when your accelerating. To be honest I have watched almost every RS3 tune video on UA-cam and your one is making very low power for upgraded intercooler, intake and stage 1 map. Suggest you go and get yourself a proper tune like Unitronic and do thr TCU as well. You will make well over 500horses with unitronic.
This isn't a stage one tune, it's a pcm 'module' only, Unitronic don't have tunes available for 8Y yet 'under development' nor do anyone else for 'off the shelf tunes' as far as I know, this is pretty common knowledge.
G-day, sounds much better 👍 I've just put a deposit (£1k) down on a 2025 model RS3. New subscriber 🇬🇧 🇭🇲 🍻
Nice congrats, I really like the new rear

What are those silver radiators to both sides of the main black one for?
Oil and auxiliary? Sorry I’m not entirely sure

Thanks Ivan!
why in hell would you want to turn it off, it affects driving not at all. and if you get drowsie driving cross country, it could save your life.
@@annenominous7220 it's over reactive and inaccurate, at times pulling you into traffic.
Sounds awesome 👌

Great choice of car 🚗 do you still have the i20n and would you recommend the GPF delete on the i20n?
I would recommend it yes, I sold that car (and regret it) I would of like to have it as a project as they are fantastic
@@Driver_88 Thanks, I’ve had mine for a year now, love it too and been toying with the idea of a GPF delete. I will go for it now 😁
Good video
Thanks man
Wait you guys can't turn off lane keep assist? and you have start stop? I'm so glad we don't have that on the NA RS3
We can’t turn either off permanently as far as I’m aware..
Same. NA RS3 doesn't have start stop. I also don't have the LKA issue you are talking about

Damn Australia really doing everything they can to stop emissions
Yeah we are like California here, high taxes, low speeds, lots of cops
@ RIP. Will they tow your car if they catch you with a loud exhaust?
Not usually, but they will send you to get your exhaust smog and noise tested
Are you the driver 61 brother?
I'm Driver 88 ma dude not the same guy, just another Aussie filming cars
it is droning man, you need to fix that for distance driving.
Sounds fine to me in D mode have done plenty of kms in it without issue
