Evening
So … Looking at getting a 3 as an everyday car. Currently have a 1.4TFSI and a Mk1 Focus RS for weekends which is running 300bhp/360ftlb
So would like to get something that ticks boxes as well as having a decent amount of power.
I’m torn between getting an S3 and stage it or get an RS3. In stuck with the 3 model as I would insist on putting it in the garage and a 3 model is really the limit due to length.
How ‘safe’ with the standard components are the S3 when they are introduced to more power?
What is their limit and is the standard S3 turbo pretty ok at more boost?
What’s the auto box like with holding more power?
Are the components in the RS3 that much better than the S?
Sorry for all the questions
