Not good MTM are doing a 330bhp conversion for the S3(8p) which in basic is re map, sorts cat, and back box.
Should be under 2k

Superchips are offering 320bhp for just the remap - better value at £500!

Don't forget that the new S3 is bound to be heavier than the 'original' one!

i would rather trust an ex Audi engine designer than Superchips. I suspect Herr Mayer has a "tadge" more Audi engine knowledge than they do. See how long it is before the engine lets go in a spectacular fashion, then Audi doesnt recognise their efforts and doesnt warranty cover the mods.
Besides Audi Palmer Sport use the 1.8 turbo engines in their single seater and they kick out nearly 350 bhp + so no reason why you guys can keep up in the hp dept.

At least Superchips offer a warranty! I'm not against MTM, but they are WAY overpriced for what is in fact an off the shelf chip - much better to have a custom remap done.

Superchips are good they did mine, as for getting 350bhp from an 8L. ONLY IF I WILL THE LOTTO.
MTM I think charge around 7k PLUS fitting
so yes it can be done but to be fair is rather expensive..
