Why I chose the TTE700 hybrid turbo for my Audi RS3 (plus a quick install)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 апр 2020
- It's time to answer the most commonly asked question since I announced that I purchased a TTE700 from the The Turbo Engineers. "Adam, why did you chose the TTE700 over all of the other turbos you could have purchased?"
In this video I spend some time explaining why I decided to go with the TTE700 and then do a quick visual comparison of the OEM turbo and the upgraded turbo. Stay tuned to the channel for my driving impressions, dyno numbers as well as Dragy performance numbers on this badass TTE700 hybrid turbo!

Thank you for always taking time to share detailed info. Looking forward to seeing the new turbo on the track/Dragy!
No problem. Thanks for watching!
Another great one Adam!Thanks for my RS3 addiction!Your my pusher!
cannot wait for the results... awesome
Great info as always!
Congrats buddy,looking forward for your next videos,respect!
Thanks!
Awesome info! Thanks for sharing your thought process.
Glad it was helpful!
Great, detailed video, as always. You're definitely one of a kind! :)
Thank you very much for your kind words!
Really appreciate your insights into this and the choices you made with reasons. Being APR stage 2 the TTE700 is going to be my choice as APR have a fully dialed in stage 3 tune for TTE700 and 93oct. Thanks man
I'll be very interested to see how my Unitronic calibrated TTE700 compares to the APR calibrated TTE700.
I watched your video! hahaahahaha
Great video once again brother....👍
Cheers,
Mark from Australia 🇦🇺.
Thank you very much!
Thank you for your time and well put together video with great info. What intake is that ? Also the other piece of carbon fiber by the radiator attached to the intake ? Looks amazing
You're welcome. The intake is here: www.getunitronic.com/parts/intakes/audi-rs3-8v-25tfsi-2018-2018-25tfsievo-4in-intake
Thanks bro love these updates
No problem. Thanks for watching
Thanks Adam. You have the most informational channel for the RS3. I’m guessing you’ll squeeze another 75 to 100 hp with the tte 700 hybrid.
We shall see!!!
Great vid as always! Coming from a Uni Stage 3 710h(stock block) guy, you chose the right turbo for what you’re looking for! Congrats and enjoy in good health!
Thank you very much!
Amazing video... keep the good work. I’m thinking on the TTE 700 and the IMS710HS for which also I believe Unitronic has Stage III files.
As I stated in the video there are no files available for public use for the 710HS right now
Vancity Audi You’re right, I believe they’re still BETA. But since I think I’ll go with Unitronic as well those 2 hybrids are the ones that I like better.
I clicked the bell notifications. I love watching your content. I will most likely pick up a used RS3 in the future. Sure i enjoy my Mustang ecoboost, which is on the road to 600 whp. I need to do a built bottom end before that happens tho. All i want to do is go fast, and sound good lol. I definitely don't sound good in the Ecoboost LMAO, but sure is quick. Anyways keep up the great content :-) I watch every video. If i ever get an RS3, it's from watching your videos, showcasing the pure potential of the RS3.
Thank you very much for the kind words! Your interpretation of quick will change quickly once you grab an RS3 rather than your Mustang. I'm sure that 600whp feels quick to you, but toss on AWD to that, add the epic sound of an inline 5 and you'll wonder why you stayed with the Stang for so long.
Thanks for all the info!!
You're very welcome!
Oh man. I haven't driven since 2007 due to a stroke. Prior to that, I was big into 5.0 Mustangs - blower, turbo, etc....It's crazy that these can go low 10s on pump gas at 135 stock wheels, AWD traction, wow. Amazing. I hope to start driving soon, definitely need a TT RS
Thanks, waiting next video )
Was waiting for this or anything tte700 from you lol
LOL, more to come! Don't you worry
going all out!!!
Thanks for very interesting info man...😊🏁 I just got my TTE550 turbo for my M135 xDrive 2014 Bmw, I dont have as you have portinjection, so I bought an Walbro525 Lpfp and today an Dorch Stage2 Hpfp..., I’m really glad to hear that you have an finished file through Unitronic both on 93 and e85..., I hope Mhd will have that for me also..., but a question; why did’nt you go for the TTE777 instead of the 700?
Same as all the reasons I shared in the video
Awesome video man. Can’t wait to see what this car puts down on all three files.
So Does Uni require upgraded injectors for their stage 3 TTE 700 93 octane file? I’m assuming you are running them because if your E85 stage 2.
Also, what about the upgraded LPFP for stage 3 E85, especially on the built motor file? Does Uni not require this for the TTE700 stage 3 on E85. I think APR mentioned it was required for their stage 3 software. Curious about Uni and what you are doing with the LPFP. would be great if you could cover this in your next video!!
Keep it up man!!
I'll be discussing this as I bump up my power levels over the next couple months. For now though, yes you need upgraded injectors for the stage 3 - 93 octane file. No, I don't need an upgraded LPFP for the built file but if I install one they have a file for that too
amazing video as always Adam. Thank you for taking the extra steps to detail everything you do for the rest of us!
Thanks for watching!
I’ve got a live streaming show with a super bowl champ. Would love to have you and your beast on the show.
Send me an email with the details adam@vancityaudi.com
i am new to ur channel but the information u give are very detailed and helpful 👍i have watch many of ur videos and i see that u are continusly saying about the map of 777 that dont have map for 93.is so difficult to make a custom map for 93 and e85.??here in uk we see it very regularly with a car have 4 different maps including e85 with standard ecu
The videos you are referencing are a bit older now. We have had a 93 pump gas tune available for a while now. Here it is: ruclips.net/video/7w0eWE7QQoE/видео.html
@@VancityAudi thanks
Hey what make nd model is the stock turbo ,
Well thanks for the explanation. I was thinking it was a hardware choice. I was hoping it was and you would go through the hardware and state pros/cons. But a Software reason is also important to consider.
Ya, as I mentioned the hardware offered my multiple companies is great, but without the software portion, you can't use any of the wonderful hardware. Thanks for watching!
So excited my 8Y finally getting built next month. I wonder how far behind tunes will be after DME is unlocked. Although i’d love to fry DS1/TVS combo as well but this unitronic setup is so simple
for 8y is only one upgrade in Croatia price stage 2 - 2800€ netto
Congrats on the turbo Adam. Just out of interest Did you not go for the tte 777 due to the reason that unitronics don’t have all the files as you described for the 700 ?
Yes, the TTE777 falls in line with all the other turbos I listed. Looks great, but isn't fully sorted out.
Hi Adam. Great informative video as always. Can you advise whether the wastegate rattle experienced on the stock turbo with downpipe is resolved on the TTE unit. Thanks
Ralph Payle wastegate rattle will be there with all hybrids. You can only fox it by going to a Big turbo
What Sean Mclaren said, haha. Sadly it is still very present because you are still utilizing the OEM housing and wastegate.
Vancity Audi was hoping it would resolve the issue. Anyhow, thanks for the response. Njoy
Sean Mclaren I’m not sure that’s exactly true, doesn’t the SRM hybrid replace the wastegate actuator with a different one that doesn’t rattle?
Did u need to remove the bar that goes under the turbo to mount it to the manifold?
Great video. How long time did the install take? 😊 👍
A few hours
Is there a separate software map for the tte777 in Unittronic Connected Plus?
I only saw the software for the tte700,
It is a BETA file. You have to request it for your box code.
Hi Adam, Unitronic have software for the TTE700 for forged motor without torque limitation?
17:42
Was there anything that should be aware of during the install? Any little issues or things to watch out for? How long did it take roughly for the full install? Thanks
A few hours for the install. The oil and coolant lines were a bit of a pain to get off and on but not the end of the world.
Did you know if you can map ecu to hatchback rs3(dnw engine type) with Unitronic Connected Plus?
That would be a question for Unitronic
Where do you get your E85 from in the fraser valley?
Northside Petroleum in New Westminster
Is there no need for a forging engine for setting tte700 turbine on rs3?
I explain in the video that you don't
There are tuners out there that can work with the stock ECU and send you a custom file. You don't have to be restricted to "cookie-cutter" tunes. Nick does custom tunes for Iroz. Jeff does custom tunes at United Motorsports. Both of these guys and probably some tuners in the UK and Europe can tune the bigger turbos. You don't have to be a guinea pig. Especially with the Iroz kits. Those have already been installed on plenty of RS3s & TTRS cars. Many of which are daily driven :)
Nick's custom tunes for Iroz need a Syvecs unit costing $6500USD. The customer service at United Motorsport was crappy at best when I used them for my 2016 Audi S3. Who said I was a guinea pig? There have been multiple people that have already run this turbo on every single power level and fuel type that I'll be using. I have been extremely happy with Unitronic's software and have gone extremely fast with it. Why would I try and fix something if it isn't broken???
Finally another lad documenting the TTE700! I dyno’d 560whp on E85 stage 2, and ran 565whp on 98 ron (US93) on my tte700. However, the Average power across the two graphs tells a different story... Because the TTE spools around 3600, Im loosing around 600rpm of spool, therefore we redline the car at 8000 to combat this.
So far my best 1/4 mile full weight in my TTRS is 10.31@136mph (20’ wheels) Im sure once I strip my car and still use 98 ron File, Ill be around a 9.8...
Ive found it to be just a tiny bit slower than my old E85 file, however for daily use on 98, its exactly what I wanted!
Can’t wait to see your dragy results!
Very interesting. Will be cool to see the difference in tuning for sure. Mine will only go to 7600rpm on Unitronic software.
Vancity Audi yeah, its definitely a small risk revving out to 8k on stock engine however it utilises the powerband of the turbo very well!
In scotland E85 is hard to get, as 0 pumps in the Country have it. We have to buy it online and ship it out!
Its around £3/L for it, so gets mega expensive really quick!
I can’t wait to see your results with unitronic, especially since you recently timed your 1/4 mile and everything on E85. Would be nice to compare to my build, only thing different is Im APR tuned, and Gearbox software by TVS! (Shift points are 7800, and 4000 launch control)
@@SeanMclaren and you have a TTRS which is more aerodynamic and significantly lighter once stripped lmao
@@SeanMclaren 3000 rpm vs 3600 rpm is one thing, if you are in gear with no boost doing a pull.
But once you shift, that 600rpm of lag is not the same
Ace Mcloud yeah I know that, however the average power across the whole graph is around the same, due to the extra rpm in the top of the rev range
Any particular reason you didn't go for TTE777, instead of 700? Aside from maybe files not being available?
You answered your question at the same time that you asked it, haha.
@@VancityAudi Haha, thanks, that's what I assumed, just wanted to be sure there was no other reason. Because I'm trying to make the same decision, but since Unitronic doesn't provide TTE700 or 777 calibrations for my engine, might go with 777 as well.
I am just curious because our fuel here in BC is notorously bad..aka for octane. When you say 93 are you referring to Chevron 94?
No, I'm referring to the file/tune I am using. The tune from Unitronic is meant for 93 octane fuel. I run 94 octane fuel from Chevron spiked with 15 - 20% ethanol. Our fuel in BC is so horrible for performance that without adding additional ethanol my car wouldn't perform anywhere near where it should be on these tunes.
Ahhh..there you go...tbanks. a little corn is needed to get to 93. Totally makes sense.
What camcorder are you using? Do you like it?
Love it so far. Panasonic HC-V770
Vancity Audi i see everyone using DSLR but I love the long zoom ranges of the camcorder. How much did you pay for yours? Does it have external mic capability?
@@BulliKid Can't remember, but yes I have an external mic on it. Feel free to look up the unit yourself on Google and it'll show you the price and all the details you want to know.
Can tte700 related ecu be installed in Korea unitronic dealer?
contact Unitronic directly and they can tell you
If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost? Did you have to send your turbo to TTE to install the hybrid blades? Also I didn't see Stage 3 being offered on Unitronic website. How did you get it?
I always mind people asking the price because Google works just as easy for you as it does for me, lmao..... tteglobal.co.uk/audi/rs3/8v.2-2.5-tfsi/33/tte700-evo-2.5-tfsi-upgrade-turbocharger
@@VancityAudi
Thanks Adam. I was just recently looking at the same thing to install on my car. I am now set back not by the price but by the severe turbo lag below 3500 rpm (I have seen the dyno curve well below stock) that it is hard to drive daily. But I look forward to see your new videos, good videos.
@@khvidtube1617 not sure why you assume that. I have been dailying my TTE700 for over a week now on 93 and have no issues whatsoever. Yes, power hits slightly later but by no means does it ruin the daily drivability. Still moves like a mofo when you stomp on it.
@@VancityAudi
I may have assumed, perhaps correctly. I have viewed the dyno graph produced by APR on its website. I know we are not talking about APR here but I have found all of APR's dyno graphs to be consistent with Unitronic's (even the profile of the curves). Maybe it is different and I could be wrong this time.
@@khvidtube1617 you keep referring to graphs and dyno's. That isn't the true measure of how a car feels while driving it on the streets as a daily driver. Yes, the car has a few hundred rpm delay from Stage 2 - E85 to Stage 3 - 93 but it still feels very natural, very linear and very easy to daily drive.
Nice documenting. So why is the ECU pump tune a beta?
Unitronic is extremely careful about releasing software. Until the software has been announced on their website and promoted on their social media it will be listed as a beta file in UniConnect+
@@VancityAudi Gotcha. Thanks for sharing your experiences with the mods!
@@john_dee1431 no problem
How did you manage a 9.9 at the 1/4 mile with the stock turbo? That's bonkers!
Like this: ruclips.net/video/_l_WpBXr2V0/видео.html
How much does it cost to build the motor, upgrade to the tte700 turbo, and the cost of tuning and whatever extras you have such as an intake etc...? Include the price of install as well.
Here are some of the prices: vancityaudi.com/faqs There is this crazy website called www.Google.com that I used to find out the pricing for everything ahead of time. You should try it!
@@VancityAudi dude I asked you a simple question. I know what google is, but you probably know the number off the top of your head, or atleast you should. No need to be a dick.
Can't wait for your review! I thought unitronic already done 710hs tune!! It was supposed to be my car.... Then covid19 bullshit happens!!!
Ya, COVID ruined a lot of people's plans including my own. Unitronic does not have a 710HS tuned completely sorted out at this time.
@@VancityAudi you're aware that you make us spending money !!!
@@inlinesick lol! Just trying to entertain!
What battery tender did you use
Whatever one the shop at that time.
Adam, I couldn't recall if you had a built engine or not but this video called it out. What is the parts list?
Rods, rod bearings, pistons, and head studs all done at Iroz Motorsport.
@@VancityAudi built in anticipation or due to failure? I'm sure you've seen the latest Hoonigans video at Iroz. Absolutely sick what these engines are capable of.
@@SupercarSeany I explain everything here: ruclips.net/video/i2SYV8eYMfo/видео.html and yes I saw that video immediately, thank you
Couldn’t you just get the 1000 kit from iroz since your engine is already built?
WAY more money
How long did the turbo install take?
A few hours
You see, I'm the guy that is influenced by the guy that does his research and isn't influenced by any specific person lol. Hence why I'm here 😂
Thanks for watching
Hey, now you can put your interior back in. Got that extra 10hp you need to compensate for the weight.
No chance that is ever happening. #racecarlife
Unitronic really need to do something about the price of the rs3 intake ! In Australia dealers are charging us $2750 !! Way too expensive
That seems like price gauging to me! It is not even remotely close to that when buying it direct from Unitronic: www.getunitronic.com/parts/intakes/audi-rs3-8v-25tfsi-2018-2018-25tfsievo-4in-intake
Import it
I’ve tried emailing them direct and they keep telling me to contact a Australian dealer.. what are yous guys paying ? Maybe something you can help with my fellow five pot companion ?
@@fivepotmusic4274 I've already sent you the link above which shows the price we are paying
No fuel pump from iroz?
Seeing as I've already answered the exact same question of yours twice, I won't bother answering you a 3rd time, lol.
And now we just need mission to open back up
Seriously
where did you purchase the tte700 from? Canadian vendor?
I contacted TTE directly. tteglobal.co.uk/audi/rs3/8v.2-2.5-tfsi/33/tte700-evo-2.5-tfsi-upgrade-turbocharger?number=SW10032.1
@@VancityAudi Thank you :)
@@anupmistry5189 No Problem
Vancity Audi Did you send your OEM turbo or bought it complete with the OEM core charge?
@@albertogomezlunadeleon9679 I bought the turbo out completely. No core exchange
Is this your daily driver ?
Yes, it has been my daily driver since I bought the car over 2 years ago
epikkkk
Wait, so no ethanol file for the TTE700? That sucks.
Gotta re-watch the video if that is what you took away from it, lmao
Must have spaced. sorry. per below it runs for another guy same as his stock turbo on ethanol. i guess track times/dragy will tell.
First! 😝
should have gone Xona..
Only time will tell
