good fun these wee cars. mine is still stock :(

I also came from RS6 &7. RS3 is way more fun although lacks the refinement of the bigger car
BMW 540i
2018 GTR
F90 M5
X3MC
RS3 Saloon
RS7 FL best car I've owned. No faith in turbo oil screen (turbos failing) or sticking oil scraper ring causing missfires.
F10 M5 LCI still no rear grip lol
S7 black Edition Too big and heavy
S3 8V FL DSG 310ps, road noise is a joke
RS3 8P Rubbish
C7 RS6 Fantastic car but missed playing
GTR R35 800bhp, too extreme, crazy fast though
911 Turbo Remapped. Hated it
F10 M5, awesome but no rear grip
RS6 V10 700BHP crazy
Porsche Cayenne Turbo S 600bhp

I'm up there in my 2017 RS3 saloon this Saturday for the same plus some turbo pipes , hoping for a great difference because these things do not feel quick stock !

From memory, engine and gearbox software plus pipes was something like 1200. Worth every penny !

More power! Turbos are sensitive to pressure loss in the inlet and outlet.
