The saloon sounds brutal, was actually thinking about getting a res delete on my own.. this video tempts me even more lol. Enjoyed the video, great comparison!
Thanks pal, glad you found the comparison useful, res delete was so much better in person than i initially imagined! I thought it was just more pronounced pops and bangs but the actual exhaust note was actually much deeper
Just a quick idea of how a JB4 and Res Delete affect the S3, can't do too much on public roads so hopefully you guys understand 👍🏼 If you want YOUR Car on the channel, Email me at: 'hamza_trh@hotmail.com'
TR Hamza the JB4 standard maps only come into play after 3000rpm, but map6 is customisable. Also BSC do a resonator delete pipe that doesn’t drone in the cabin. Got mine done last month and haven’t looked back.
the mods on the tuned s3 look like they done by someone who knows what they are doing proper sleeper,good to see vids where people are loving their cars.keep the vids going good to see different car people.
Yeah definitely a sleeper! Will keep the videos coming showing the various cars that people have and bits they've changed, makes the cars a bit more personalised for sure.
Roblox Games well that’s a lie hahahaha , Leeds to Preston on google maps is 69.2 miles and you said it took 10 mins that would mean he would have gone 414mph ?? No normal road car can do that not even a Bugatti veyron can do that ??? Speed = Distance/Time
Loved the video :) nice to see the difference... one thing also to note that the jb4's performance is also limited by the settings.. higher boost more power lower boost less power... and u can have it kick in low down instead of all top end depending on what you like. but wicked video i really enjoyed it 😊!
Hamza. I’ve just had the res delete on my saloon using the vagsport pipe. It’s a lot louder than I was expecting! You can’t really tell from RUclips videos. It’s that loud I’m thinking about putting back to stock as it’s a bit too antisocial for me. Gonna give it a couple of weeks and see how I feel about it.
It's not the exhaust, it's the mapping. Euro models have slight overrun. My A3 8v is straight piped and is MUCH louder/better than that s3 but I barely get pops :'( And this is coming from someone who has the most expensive milltek available collecting dust lol . The dsg farts make such a loud snapping sound though ;)
even though your s3 is slower (in comparison with a tuned s3) your car still looks the best. Saloon looks wierd imo and somewhat understated. I know the s3 is a car which is pretty understated, but the saloon variant doesn't look aggressive nor sporty (just my oppinion). I believe you should leave your car stock.. I believe the s3 is a car packed with a whole heap of power and shouldn't be tapered with. It would be nice to keep your s3 stock for potential buyers looking at your video and I as a viewer, want an insight of what it feels like to own one these hot hatches as it is and how it compares with rivals. But who am I to tell you what to do with your car.. You enjoy and do what you feel is right. I'm just happy for the continous uploads. All of them are just amazing keep it up!
Thank you bro! And yeah I personally am a fan of the Sportback too as it looks more pointy and aggressive, Saloon is very classy though! And yeah Im not in a rush to buy a JB4 etc after the comparison, the point at which it kicks in is not going to be seen on a daily basis, only on a runway or autobahn as i mentioned haha.
I have been a fan off the S3/rs3 sportback since forever. I have started to go towards the saloon recently and I can't wait for the rs3 saloon that will be insane!
I have a question and i hope you will reply why we have an audi s3 2017 with a digital dashboard and another audi s3 2017 with no digital dashboard what is the difference between the two car?
Nice video as usual. How did the res-delete affect the sound in relation to the valvetronic side of things? Is it still fairly quiet in comfort mode compared to dynamic mode?
So the JB4 is a tuning box ? Sounds fruity and super quick.Great comparison video.Wouldn’t mind doing the delete on my REVO stage one TTs mk2 DSG 333bhp 450NM 0-60mph is 4.2 4.5 secs 🏎💥💨
Great vid looking to change my exhaust to rs3 but you think just res delete for best sound my s3 been remap but i think it needs beefy sound thanks frank glasgow
I am interested in the forge induction kit but I have seen in the descriptions from sellers it does fit facelift models? do you know what was done to make it fit?
Res Delete 80pounds, the rest I believe he got a good price from a friend who was getting rid of his car so it wouldn't reflect actual retail value, easily searchable online though mate 👍🏼
If in the future you want to upgrade the power on your S3 i would personally get a custom remap thats modified on a rolling road. Then you get before and after dyno results to see exactly what power your cars pushing out. As you will already know a custom map is designed for your car and your car only unlike these boxes thats a one size fits all 😎
Yeah you can't beat a remap I agree with you definitely on that, this is great for those looking to preserve warranty though. As my car is only 8 months old I wont be messing with the warranty anytime soon :)
Yes your right. I forgot about that. I got my car custom remapped but i waited for the warranty to end. I have a seat leon 184 and it got put on the dyno and made 178 bhp and 295 lbs ft torque standard. It was supposed to have 181 bhp and 280 lbs ft torque from the factory. after the map it made 230 bhp and 350 lbs ft torque. I know its nothing compared to a S3 but it has totally transformed the car. The traction control light flashes quite abit now even in the dry. If your looking at boxes have a look at racechip aswel. 😎
Hi Mate!! Interesting comparison, though I'm not tempted by any mods, mine sounds great enough. Being as you're in that area, could you do a comparison with one of the buses at the museum!!!! Only kidding - mind you, to would be great if Audi built buses!!!😆
Wow... I can't believe that's considered loud in the UK, my GT3 with no mufflers is not considered that loud, my viper(stock) is quite to me and 3x as Loud as the RES delete, making these cars Loud without catless DP, and no res and either muffler delete or catback just doesn't work, my buddies S3 with no muff or res and catless sounds great!
Im just saying I've noticed people in the UK definition of loud isnt really considered loud over here, and they said multiple times how loud it was, when in frank its not loud at all.
You've clearly never heard a Jaguar F-Type R. That thing is the loudest new stock car I've heard and it's made in the UK. I think they know how to make loud things there :).
Thank you very much for this comparison. I’ve been pondering on wether to buy a catback or res delete with my future tune. I dont want the car to be too noisy for the wife and kids... Anyway that was a very good idea and I do believe the res delete might not pose any problem when I just cruise around the countryside with madam. Cheers :)
Great idea for a vid. I'd take Your hatch over saloon even with the Mods. Absolutely gorgeous in black fucking perfect colour. Go Careful with a res delete on a hatch though. Serious drone on motorways ... S3 acoustic insulation isnt that great.
Thanks pal! Yeah Im a big fan of the sportback shape, just looks so pointy and sharp, saloon is very classy looking though I must say. Ahh I've heard some things about the drone issues so may hold back on it if thats the case, as I've started using my car on the motorway a lot more in the past few months, nice one for the heads up 👍🏼
Yeah man Audi did so well. I didnt think it was possible to make a better looking hatch than the 8V s/rs but they have. Yeah saloon has great shapes I must admit - i actually really liked the pre facelift saloon but not the facelift for some reason and I dont know why maybe the lip of the bumper I dunno. Regarding exhaust - yeah... Ive been in the cockpit of a resonator delete in an S3 on the motorway and i'm telling you it's like being in a ww1 aircraft haha pure hummm. Does ya nut in. Maybe a secondary cat delete instead or a full aftermarket exhaust system? Best of luck whatever you decide mate - chat soon
I can't be the only one that prefers the saloon to the hatchback
Wavey Yout Nope your not the only one it’s hella nice compact and sporty as shit
Saloon look way nicer an more classy I think.
Prefer the rs3 as a hatchback but only the new shape s3 is better as a saloon
Yeah I like it better too. It’s more classy and understated. Hatch looks a bit more sporty but the sedan is pretty sporty as far as sedans go.
Saloon looks way better !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love how simple and effective your videos are .. I like how you review things and go into every detail and doesn’t take 30 mins for one video
WHAT AV WE LEARNED FROM THIS VIDEO..
THAT MIKE IS ABOUT 2 FOOT 1
Danny boy DJB 😂😂😂😂😂
He’s half the weight too 😜
The saloon sounds brutal, was actually thinking about getting a res delete on my own.. this video tempts me even more lol. Enjoyed the video, great comparison!
Thanks pal, glad you found the comparison useful, res delete was so much better in person than i initially imagined! I thought it was just more pronounced pops and bangs but the actual exhaust note was actually much deeper
TR Hamza very true, videos don't really do justice! Definitely would need to hear it in person to make the decision.
Definitely go for it man, such a cheap and easy mod. Most decent exhaust places will do it for £70 - £100.
Russ Clarke did it a couple of weeks ago mate, definitely don't regret it whatsoever! In love with how it sounds.. only stung me £90 too!
Corey Weir I know I’m a bit late but where did you get it done?
Love your videos first apna that's going to smash it! Keep it up
Thank you bro! Hopefully soon come 👊🏼
lol aleem smashed it anawl but hamazs stuff is sick aswell
Nice one mate, never expected you guys to like the videos that much! Ill keep em coming 👍🏼
TR Hamza what res delete does it have
Fantastic videos buddy. Finally someone who actually makes decent review videos. Nice one
Thanks pal :) Glad you're finding the videos enjoyable, its good to know!
TR Hamza I am mate. Nice guy and easy to watch.... Without the crazy over dramatics of other people 😉
The engine isn't the only thing boosted in Mike car. You should see his car seat 🤣
🤣 😂 🤣
💀
Just had the res delete on my golf R, sounds 10X better. It's a must have mod tbh 👍🏽 get it done mate 🙌🏽
Really does transform the car for such a simple job doesn't it, maybe soon bro 🙌🏽
Is it still quiet enough around town in eco/normal mode. Then louder in race mode with the valves open?
Vids keep getting more and more sick keep it up :)
Nice one mate, good to know you're enjoying them!
TR Hamza what would be the comparison with the M3 you drove??
No S3 will ever be as good as an M3 :)
TR Hamza Fact.. the M3 just offers everything that you can ask for.. looks, power, sound and many others which makes it hard to compare with the rest
No RS3 or RS4 either....
There not on the same page!
Unless your cars under warranty get it remapped it's the best mod you can do to any turbo car especially Germans
Just a quick idea of how a JB4 and Res Delete affect the S3, can't do too much on public roads so hopefully you guys understand 👍🏼
If you want YOUR Car on the channel, Email me at: 'hamza_trh@hotmail.com'
TR Hamza great video
Did you have a drive of it? If so, how was it compared to your standard S3?
TR Hamza did u experience any drone inside the cabin of the s3 saloon?
TR Hamza the JB4 standard maps only come into play after 3000rpm, but map6 is customisable. Also BSC do a resonator delete pipe that doesn’t drone in the cabin. Got mine done last month and haven’t looked back.
the mods on the tuned s3 look like they done by someone who knows what they are doing proper sleeper,good to see vids where people are loving their cars.keep the vids going good to see different car people.
Yeah definitely a sleeper! Will keep the videos coming showing the various cars that people have and bits they've changed, makes the cars a bit more personalised for sure.
15 bhp from an intake pipe 😂😂😂
That jb4 makes a noticeable difference at the top end
Yeah very strong at the top
Roblox Games well that’s a lie hahahaha , Leeds to Preston on google maps is 69.2 miles and you said it took 10 mins that would mean he would have gone 414mph ?? No normal road car can do that not even a Bugatti veyron can do that ???
Speed = Distance/Time
Nice balanced comparison between discussion & road footage- keep it up TR. Great work by Mike too.
Honestly my favourite channel on RUclips now, keep it up bro
Damn, love the support bro honestly, will keep the content coming
Difference between res delete and muffler delete? Why not get both? Normally it’s muffler and res, but this one is only res. Why ?
Awesome Video as always Humza!
Love the support as always Umier!
Loved the video :) nice to see the difference... one thing also to note that the jb4's performance is also limited by the settings.. higher boost more power lower boost less power... and u can have it kick in low down instead of all top end depending on what you like. but wicked video i really enjoyed it 😊!
Glad you enjoyed the video man! :)
Hamza your videos and your smile are awesome, keep up the good work.
Subscribed.
Thank you! Love that you're enjoying the videos, will keep them coming :)

mashallah nice car bro. I'm a bmw owner and I got smoked by an s3 recently. I have a new love for audi 😎 keep up the good work.
Great content as always Hamza

Very nice video man!
Very good videos, always coming up with new content, keep up the good work, subscribed👍🏻
+Jack Dare Thanks pal, will keep the videos coming for ya 👍🏼
Res delete on my A1 is great, pops now and makes a lot more noise for less cost of a whole exhaust!
Yeah pretty great for such a small cheap mod!
Brilliant video mate 👍🏻
That sedan sounds great!
Yes mike!! Beast of a car mate
Love the vids m8...superb..after an s3 next few mth
What JB4 Map Mike using? 1 , 3 or 6 custom Map , if Custom then could you share with us the settings?
Excellent video 👌 which map has the gray audi map 1, 2 or 6?
Great video and great comparison. Thanks man 👍😊
No problem man glad you found it useful 👍🏼
Hamza. I’ve just had the res delete on my saloon using the vagsport pipe. It’s a lot louder than I was expecting! You can’t really tell from RUclips videos. It’s that loud I’m thinking about putting back to stock as it’s a bit too antisocial for me. Gonna give it a couple of weeks and see how I feel about it.
What did mike change to the exhaust? Bcs it sounds much better then stock
Your stock exhaust pops and sounds better than the North American S3 even with a res delete!!
Yeah Its a shame NA don't get the new FL exhaust!
It's not the exhaust, it's the mapping. Euro models have slight overrun. My A3 8v is straight piped and is MUCH louder/better than that s3 but I barely get pops :'( And this is coming from someone who has the most expensive milltek available collecting dust lol .

bro you should of also done a race mode test.
Great vid bro quick question. His forge air intake kit was the filter cotton or foam?
I have been a fan off the S3/rs3 sportback since forever. I have started to go towards the saloon recently and I can't wait for the rs3 saloon that will be insane!
I have a question and i hope you will reply why we have an audi s3 2017 with a digital dashboard and another audi s3 2017 with no digital dashboard what is the difference between the two car?
You have komfort/progressive/technik
I like the idea of the ResDelete but if it produces a cabin drone it would annoy the hell out of me.
Nice video as usual. How did the res-delete affect the sound in relation to the valvetronic side of things? Is it still fairly quiet in comfort mode compared to dynamic mode?
So the JB4 is a tuning box ? Sounds fruity and super quick.Great comparison video.Wouldn’t mind doing the delete on my REVO stage one TTs mk2 DSG 333bhp 450NM 0-60mph is 4.2 4.5 secs 🏎💥💨
hamza love the vids..keep em coming..
Great video. Really informative. 😀😀keep it up
+Truth Speaker Thanks mate! Glad you found it informative :)
do you know what map he was running on jb4? on custom map 6 with downpipe s3/golf r should see around 390 bhp
Nice video bro 👍🏻
Great vid looking to change my exhaust to rs3 but you think just res delete for best sound my s3 been remap but i think it needs beefy sound thanks frank glasgow
Great video well done new to the channel. Does a res delete affects warranty
Should try and make a video with @danielkhan96 and compare your car to his Rs3👍🏽
Bilal Ahmed I agree would be a good vid
Let's do it 🤙🏼
what's the point when Daniels already compared his RS3 to Samirs S3 face-lift and also Damirs.
Umier Anjam this one will be more in depth tho because its only one S3 he'll compare it to and it won't just be a noise comparison
I am interested in the forge induction kit but I have seen in the descriptions from sellers it does fit facelift models? do you know what was done to make it fit?
Great video, would like to have seen a standing start comparison 👍
Is your dash display standard or part of the virtual cockpit pack? Thanks
What booster seat does Mike have?
Now this! Is how to do a comparison video 👍
Glad you approve! 👊🏼
Do u know if the JB4 will void warranty yet?
Nice video bro.. Looks like you might have to get a JB4.. Or just put a savage remap on your s3.... His top end was just way too much...
Thanks bro, yeah his top end was too crazy, Iuckily I dont live next to a runaway or autobahn or else i'd have to buy one tomorrow 😂
Euro Cars are just so damn Beautiful! Inside and Out!!!!
The Saloon version looks so much better than the hatchback version
Is it worth doing a res delete on a diesel such as a GTD?
Someone help me out. I've got s3 facelift. Shall I get jb4 tuning or racechip gts black tuning
Great night time footage
+Stuart Christie Thank you mate
Could you do a review on a bmw 335d E90 or E92 please. Would be great. Thanks👍🏽
Liking this and haven't even watched it yet !! 👍🏻
Love the support man! 🙌🏽
Can you do some side by side runs against your mates Honda Civic Type R FK2, a pull off comparison would be great to.
Could do, pull off the S3 would launch way better, side by side who knows!
Make it happen bro!
First of all, love your videos mate. Just wondering how bad of a drone you get with a simple res delete on these 8Vs?
Tim Tam I have the factory res delete on mine and it has no drone whatsoever at all speeds
would of been good to get an understanding of how much he paid for res del, jb4 etc..?
Res Delete 80pounds, the rest I believe he got a good price from a friend who was getting rid of his car so it wouldn't reflect actual retail value, easily searchable online though mate 👍🏼
How much does it cost to mod and who you recommend
Great video. I am always looking for videos on how to make my Audi S3 a little faster.
Great video! Subscribing!
Thanks! Welcome 👊🏼
What power does it make the s3?
If in the future you want to upgrade the power on your S3 i would personally get a custom remap thats modified on a rolling road. Then you get before and after dyno results to see exactly what power your cars pushing out. As you will already know a custom map is designed for your car and your car only unlike these boxes thats a one size fits all 😎
Yeah you can't beat a remap I agree with you definitely on that, this is great for those looking to preserve warranty though. As my car is only 8 months old I wont be messing with the warranty anytime soon :)
Yes your right. I forgot about that. I got my car custom remapped but i waited for the warranty to end.
I have a seat leon 184 and it got put on the dyno and made 178 bhp and 295 lbs ft torque standard. It was supposed to have 181 bhp and 280 lbs ft torque from the factory. after the map it made 230 bhp and 350 lbs ft torque. I know its nothing compared to a S3 but it has totally transformed the car. The traction control light flashes quite abit now even in the dry. If your looking at boxes have a look at racechip aswel. 😎
If you get a JB4 reckon you'll do an install video?
Probably not ill be honest
Is mike on his knees?
Great video
What‘s the name of the paint colour on that saloon? 😍
Abir Adnan Ali Daytona Grey 👌🏻
TheIceBoy122 oh thanks 💯
A435 down to Becketts… proper race track
Celtic tuning are of the most trusted and reliable companies. They will also come out to you in a mobile van.
Yeah I've heard of them, they are proper remaps though right? I would only ever go tuning box if I do go for something
TR Hamza
curious akh,why would you choose a tune box over remap?
shuhel miah warranty
is a jb4 just a plug in box? why would someone choose this over a proper remap?
If the turbo blows they can just remove the box and you will get a new turbo from the warranty.
Might try a racechip one for my TT.
ECU flash tune is much better.
Why
For alot of reasons, google it.
Can u do the same race type video with a golf r
Hi Mate!! Interesting comparison, though I'm not tempted by any mods, mine sounds great enough. Being as you're in that area, could you do a comparison with one of the buses at the museum!!!! Only kidding - mind you, to would be great if Audi built buses!!!😆
+ian taf hi mate, an Audi bus would be crazy 😂 And yes stock they're are defo good enough!
Wow... I can't believe that's considered loud in the UK, my GT3 with no mufflers is not considered that loud, my viper(stock) is quite to me and 3x as Loud as the RES delete, making these cars Loud without catless DP, and no res and either muffler delete or catback just doesn't work, my buddies S3 with no muff or res and catless sounds great!
Im just saying I've noticed people in the UK definition of loud isnt really considered loud over here, and they said multiple times how loud it was, when in frank its not loud at all.
You've clearly never heard a Jaguar F-Type R. That thing is the loudest new stock car I've heard and it's made in the UK. I think they know how to make loud things there :).
Which Uni fam?
Why do people want a loud exhaust...?
That s3 is to Mike like a long wheelbase s class is to me.
Thank you very much for this comparison. I’ve been pondering on wether to buy a catback or res delete with my future tune. I dont want the car to be too noisy for the wife and kids...
Anyway that was a very good idea and I do believe the res delete might not pose any problem when I just cruise around the countryside with madam.
Cheers :)
Nice vest Mike ! lol lol
Like your style
Thanks mate 👊🏼
what mod does the saloon have for the exhaust?
Resonator delete
Quite like the S3 but the 2.0 4 pot sounds rubbish to me.
would you recommend s3 in manual or not?
Apparently the Leon cupra/S3/Golf R has a very weak clutch in manual so will likely slip
Hmm just realised now how tall you are aswell when Mike stood next to you..haha.. No offence..
Benny One it's not that he's tall it's that mike is the height of shite
Great idea for a vid. I'd take
Your hatch over saloon even
with the Mods. Absolutely gorgeous in black fucking perfect colour. Go
Careful with a res delete on a hatch though. Serious drone on motorways ... S3 acoustic insulation isnt that great.
Thanks pal! Yeah Im a big fan of the sportback shape, just looks so pointy and sharp, saloon is very classy looking though I must say. Ahh I've heard some things about the drone issues so may hold back on it if thats the case, as I've started using my car on the motorway a lot more in the past few months, nice one for the heads up 👍🏼
Yeah man Audi did so well. I didnt think it was possible to make a better looking hatch than the 8V s/rs but they have. Yeah saloon has great shapes I must admit - i actually really liked the pre facelift saloon but not the facelift for some reason and I dont know why maybe the lip of the bumper I dunno. Regarding exhaust - yeah... Ive been in the cockpit of a resonator delete in an S3 on the motorway and i'm telling you it's like being in a ww1 aircraft haha pure hummm. Does ya nut in. Maybe a secondary cat delete instead or a full aftermarket exhaust system? Best of luck whatever you decide mate - chat soon
another top vid bro,check out torqueflow for a resonator delete,imran's work is top quality👍
Thank you bro, yeah If I get any exhaust work done I would most likely go to them 👍🏼
Why no comparison from a dig?
