Are you running stock exhaust with the downpipe? I'm wanting to install basically this same setup on my '15 A3 Quattro. I like the idea of using the stock intake actually, with a turbo inlet upgrade. I may be alone in this but I like the look of a stock-ish engine bay. Increases sleeper status haha
@@brettkrehling8738 stock exhaust with resonator delete? mine came with a factory resonator delete and im nervous of what itll sound like with downpipe
@@vlone42k42 I recently went stage 2 with my S3. It has a resonator delete along with the downpipe. It sounds barely louder than stock when at idle and cruising down the highway. I have a 7 speed though.
I'm getting my AP with EQT stage 2 tunes and DSG tune this next Monday and I can't wait! Still need to install my downpipe though. How is the process to get the DSG tune? Do you have to plug the AP first to get some info and then get the tune from EQT?
Yep! So you flash it with the cobb tcu tune, when you do that it will throw up a transmission ID code you then copy that code send it in email to them and they will send you out the Eqt tcu tune! You will have to download ap manager and load the tune into your access port
@@JoeSmith-ep1ox me and my cousin did it on his lift , it took us about 2 and half hours to do. If you are doing it on the ground you may have to cut the oem downpipe in half just because its one piece. It only has one o2 sensor! Other than that they diy is not too bad.
The diverter valve is stock, it's just a spacer that channels the air out of the turbo instead of back to the intake tract. I have one on my 19 GTI and, from monitoring boost with a P3 gauge, it made no difference 👍
Had it on my 17 s3 I was hitting 28psi peak past 3rd gear on my map 6 jb4 put a torque solutions dv spacer and I lost 2 psi on the top end plus it sounded rice i took it off and threw it away the next day problem solved
@@brettkrehling8738 Bro if your still running RS7 plugs, stage 2, you might wanna change to Denso IKH24's they have been proven to be more reliable at that power level. It's true, RS7 plugs have been known to crack off and destroy the poor engine. Ive been stage 2 with 034 for a while, the Denso plugs have been perfect
Pretty cool vid. S3 has a final gear ratio of 4.77, per Car and Driver magazine. So with a Cobb tune, that looks like a beast of a car.
those shifts sound amazing
Looking good, my EQT E30 did 11.87 on full weight and no intercooler, with FBO and lighter wheels it should be in the high 11.6s, fastest is 11.56
That’s really good!! I know of a guy who claims he’s running 11.3s with some weight reduction. Love this platform!!
Watching this makes me so happy. My s3 is on the way😆
Turbskie sounds wildddd
i was just thinking of doing this to my 2016 S3 im unsure if i wanna go EQT or UNI and im trying to find a down pipe to match my MBRP catback
Tssss definitely doing
Rip the bong 😂😂
whats your setup on this for stage 2? car sounds sick

Just got mine today super pumped. Did you get the e30 stage 2 tune?
I went with a 93 tune . e85 in my area gets bad in the winter, so when summer hits i plan to go with a custom e30 tune. 93 still rips💪
@@brettkrehling8738
Awesome thanks I will make sure to check our local e85 with a tester. Looking forward to more videos
what wheels do you have on your audi s3? They looks perfect with your set up!!!
Yea that’s what I’m wondering!
Love it. Do you have the DSG tune also? I’m running Stage 1 EQT on my 15 S3 love it
dsg tune is a must.
@@hellriser180 based on the video, yes he flashed the DSG.
Hey man sweet car I bought my tune from eqt and was wondering if you had unplugged the secondary o2 sensor when tuning via accessport
Cheers, joe
I left it plugged in! The tune will code out the cel code from aftermarket downpipe.
So I just received my ecs tuning mqb downpipe how much of a pain in the ass is it to install? And thought there would be two o2 sensors not one

@@JoeSmith-ep1ox old comment, but on my friends a3 we did it on the ground and we unbolted the driveshaft in order to free the space. no need to cut.
how many horsepower is this tune?
You have an exhaust on it?
Hey what is then alloys called? Really want to buy them for mine!
Where’d you get the grill?
Don't you think you may have a boost leak?
Can you put that tune on a a3?
Where did you get the grill?
Where did you get that grille?? 🔥🔥🔥
How gas mpg ??
Not that great maybe 18-19 average. Really depends on how you drive
This is with the ECS Turbocharger?
rip the bong 😭😭😭
Already know 😎 merry Christmas 🎄
Doesn't seem like you were in S mode?? It will shift at about 6700 rpms, unless that's just on the e30 tune.
I was manually shifting a bit early
how is it holding up?
How come your turbo so loud? I can’t hear mine at all and I’m stage 1
The downpipe . Whenever id hit boost the wastegate would screem
@@brettkrehling8738 do you think it’s leaking or this is normal?
What kind of exhaust do you have ?
where did u get grill
What year is you’re s3 mate?
What’s your exhaust setup
is this stock catback with the dp?
Yeah all stock besides dp
What kind of wheels are those
Tsw Bathurst 19x9.5 et 35 w 255/35/19s
Well
yo where did you get the grill at?
Tbh i got it off ebay and i transferred the emblems off my oem grill.
@@brettkrehling8738 fit no problem? easy install?
Did you get the crackle tune with your stage 2 tune?
I did! Sounds very good with the stock exhaust.
@@brettkrehling8738 awesome! I'm waiting on my catted downpipe and then grabbing a tune too!
Did you ever get any cel ?
3000 miles in and no issues!
Check leaks
How come you don’t get dsg farts?
He has dsg farts lol 6:47
Rear Diffusor from ? Please link
Ebay
Go back to stock diverted valve and should gain 1 or 2 psi
Thanks for the advice i plan on going with the go fast bits diverter valve, might upgrade the turbo well see lol

That turbo is going to die, it whistles too much....
If she ain’t whistling she aint spoolin
