    ECU finally unlocked….

    200mph, with the door open, and a cold engine..... dude is brave.. or maybe the picture isn't in real motion...:blink: besides.. you'd think it's a little too convenient to copy the revo stage 1 and 2 numbers? probably just an early website mock up to get it out there... also needs week to turn...

    CCB’s

    you take that thing out in the wet..? you're braver than i thought.... (insert Star Wars emoji) definitely noticed zero brakes when i tip-toed through a deep puddle in the winter... had to dab the brake for a while to get some temp in to dry them out before they'd think of working properly...

    CCB’s

    i spoke to an independent Audi/Bently specialist before adding them to my spec list and ha said he normally see's them need nothing for 100k miles.. just take extra care when changing wheels..don't let KwikFit any where near them.. get some of those wheel stud aligners so when putting wheels...

    Eibach PRO-KIT installed

    a very delicate amount of drop..... hapf what the Sportlines do..? probably means you won't need to slight remould with a heat gun, one of the bumps on the passenger (RHD) wheel arch...

    ASR or Sports Exhaust?

    If you can afford to do both...... i run an active valve control and a Milltek race... wouldn't want it any louder than that.. even though it's certainly not as loud as an 8V..

    Car insurance up !!

    just another hint to check Audi insurance.. about 30% cheaper than my renewal with LV, and a lot less than the ridiculous £4500 quote by pretty much anyone else that would even quote...

    Anti-Lift kit

    Has anyone fitted an anti-lift kit yet... ? I did one on my Mk5 Golf and it was epic for front end turn in and also seemed to be a little kinder on the tyres... having just sprung for a new set of PS4's after 7k miles, its an excuse to spend some money under the guise of saving money but...

    Vorsprung wheel repair

    for what it's worth... hit a crater in the road and bent the nearside front on the inside of the rim, no damage to any of the coating tho :relieved: these guys did a nice job and very quickly, based in High Wycombe. had a MotorEasy wheel cover that refunded me the cost...

    Milltek Active Control Valve (8Y)

    To close the loop on this.... yes Milltek had sent a LHD one, even though it said RHD on the packet... a replacement was sent, same problem... LHD in a RHD parts packet.. turns out some faulty packaging from the loom manufacturer.. new RHD one sent, installed in 5 mins, now happily enjoying...

    RS3 8Y General Discussion Thread.

    *adds mental note to buy more Moncler.... not the best camera work i've seen.. felt a little seasick pretty quickly... i wonder if just lobbing a larger or hybrid turbo on and let the default ecu work it out is going to be the only way forward if the ecu never gets unlocked..

    RS3 8Y General Discussion Thread.

    hahahahahah, luckily no... just canvasing as to whether a racechip GTS was a good mod or not... or somethign like the Racingline box as well... keep asking Revo, but no movement there until they pop the ecu themselves i guess.

    Lowering the RS3 8Y

    lowered mine, eibach Sportlines, 25mm at each end.. sits nice.. had to adjust headlights back up after, and needed a little heat to the passenger (left) front wheel well to push back one of the protruding lumps so it didn't rub when on full lock.. if you wanna see i think they did a video on...

    ASR exhaust valve controller

    you plug it into the green ones slightly above where the ASR instructions say to plug theirs? doesn't sound right if it's different to the ASR one if it's trying to emulate the same thing down the same wires.. it's simple fo rsure. did you get the offical install pictures from somewhere?

    Milltek Active Control Valve (8Y)

    Hi, does anyone have any install instructions for the Milltek ACV into an 8Y, specifically an RS3, but i guess they're all the same harness... seems different to the ASR ones, which doesn't make sense if they're trying to control the same thing.. just wan tot check before i put it inline in...
