Nice video Bro, this is inspirational to me. I just picked up a like new 2018 S3 with only 8K miles. Im having a blast just driving it stock LOL. Down the line though I will go the FBO route ( EQT tuning) then maybe hybrid turbo and internals, but it truly is impressive how fast these beefed up audi S3 2.0 TFSI's can go with simple mods, the engine from all accounts is very reliable. I have never heard of one of these engines blowing up with these mods. For now, my S3 for me is the ultimate daily driver, Im holding my own against 99% of cars out there on the road.
@@FocusedGarage absolutely, my S3 is stock for now, and is a total joy to drive. May I ask which stage 2 you have? Turbo downpipe? res delete? Did you break into the 11s yet?
Good video, definitely an 11 second car on a dragy when you drive on fresh air, stop and bang it, a hot track on pump gas backs at least 2 degrees of timing on our cars. Keep it up 👍🏻
Nice, my 2020 s3 is currently stored for the winter, i know i know audi is made for the winter but its my baby. Come march im going straight stage 2 unitronic, apr dp and intake, cant fucking waitttt

These are pretty solid cars and can really hold their own at lower speeds. Treat it well and keep it maintained and it should last you a long time!

@@volkssturm9694hows ur car 2 years later? Planning to buy a used 2017 one soon.
Thinking about an S3. Very impressive.
Really enjoyed mine when I had it!
Tune improved a lot today with local tune in Aus I aim to get mid 11 currently at 11.8 but tyres not as good.
Turbocharged cars love a good tune!
12.1is nice man! I hope my 2018 S3 can do that sometime soon.
oh you dont even run an intercooler in this video?? damn not bad then.
Yep, still was on factory IC in the video too!
OMG! I HAVE THIS EXACT CAR! Shes running great! I was like... this guys voice is so familiar!
Hope you're enjoying it!

Thanks for the comment! High 11's for a daily with AWD on pump gas is impressive to me haha.
Plus the fuel is crap in the US!
@@FocusedGarageStage 2 S3 12.03?? My bro with A3 stage 2 did 12.3@110mph?? how can a stage 2 S3 be only be 0.3 faster 🤔 are you sandbagging?
Did you have to wear a special helmet or can you wear any regular helmet
Your experience will vary based on the track and how strict the tech inspection is.
What kind of paddle shift extensions do you have?
AXMOTIV paddle extensions.
Great stuff, I run about the same times on dragy.. haven't been to a prepped drag strip yet. 2015 s3 stg2 eqt
If you run, let us know the time!
Do you do burnouts? Don’t you drive through the burnout box. With water
I drove around the burnout box each time and did not scrub off my tires. I was running summer tires, not slicks or anything.
First boi vibes
In the feels.

Love driving my S3 in the snow, but I can understand wanting to keep the salt off.

passenger seat save you 60 pounds
Thanks for the heads up!
