  • I am actually surprised how fast this racechip audi a3 is. Sure it will beat most entry level hot-hatches GTI, Corsa vxr, fiesta St....
    and it might not be as expensive to insure for younger drivers.

    I have a 2.0t quattro a3 with a milltek exhaust and standard down pipe with cats removed making 270bhp on the dyno after a stage 1 remap, its basically a mk6 golf gti engine making it a good s3 alternative👍

    I agree on the insurance side of things it would be cheaper but the cost of the car is over double than like a mk5 gti, astra vxr, cupra 240 etc, but as a s3 alternative for a young driver its probably a good shout.

      I owned a mk5 golf gti dsg for 7 months, even thought it had 2 owners and been well looked after. It had so many common problems and in spent 1.5k maintaining it within those 7 months.
      I remapped it, put the best performance parts for a healthy stage 1 plus
      And sold it for how much I bought it for ( yeah didnt grt anything back for mods)
      They are lovely cars but the mpg in city is horrendous, theres always common issues because they are 10 years old now, im 20 so insurance was expensive. I wasnt able to save because most of my monthly income was going on the car
      So I wouldn’t recommend owning a mk5 gti unless your funds are stable or your dads paying for it. Some insurers will insure drivers from 20 plus based on the area but most dont untill 21 and two years licence held.
      Currently saving up for a 1.8 as its a newer engine

  • @101francis101
    @101francis101 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    People seem to forget that when two cars are flat out you need a massive performance difference to “annihilate” another car. The Cupra has around 25 percent more power than the A3 which feels great but you still need quite a lot of road to overtake when the two cars are flat out. Doesn’t reflect badly on the cupra at all.

  • @user-vf5nx8re6t
    @user-vf5nx8re6t ปีที่แล้ว

    I’m impressed with the A3 on this, a very underestimated engine for sure.
    I’ve got a mk7 GTD, remapped to 212 bhp and 490nm, if moves! A lot of torque. Keeps up with some fast 2wd petrols.
