Just grabbed an A3 for the wifey..next up..Stasis +/- Milltek
The 2.0T is a sweet little engine, and I'm sure those on the A3 board have modded the heck out of it......
Planning on statis Sept after the actaul wedding, +/- milltek...The grunt of this engine is good enough for me, so with only minimal gains on the dyno, I may pass that up....
In terms of the suspension, I just don't like the way the a$$ end of this car handles under hard braking or cornering at speeds over 80..I dont think its the tires..PS2s...the rear end just feels very light and loose...

screw the milltek, just chip it.
Milltek: +20hp for $750.
APR chip: +52hp & +96 ft-lbs for $600.
no brainer!
I think the A3 is a car that would really benefit from relocating the battery to the trunk, but I don't think that would be a simple mod.

I wonder if the S line roof spoiler would help? Or do you already have that?
At 80 mph you should be starting to get some downforce, probably not enough to offset the effect of full force braking however.

the A3 is overpriced, the a4 is certainly much more for relatively little more.... but the wife to be wanted it over the A4...she commutes in and out of the city.....
