  • It is the FINAL YEAR of the Audi TT RS! Under the hood of this TT is a 2.5L turbocharged inline-5 that is producing 400HP & mated to a 7-speed S-Tronic gearbox. The TT RS has very aggressive styling that is functional and allows it to stand out from the crowd. On the inside you will find a very minimalistic interior which allows you to focus on the driving task at hand. Why is is NOW or NEVER to BUY a 2020 Audi TT RS?

      You just bought a 2020 and are happy with the sound??? I bought a new 2019 RS3 (loaded, incl perf exhaust) and it sounded nothing like what I expected. Found it later that Audi changed their cars to tune exhaust flaps closed due to WLTP EU requirements. Sounds a little better now but still nothing like what you hear online. Very disappointing in RL as far as the sound. And yes, I do cycle the drive modes back through to Dynamic + Sport.

    • @Pheil

      Troy Muni get some carless midpipes - US cars don’t have any difference in exhaust from 17/18 aside from the overrun/burble coding. Tune will bring those burbles back.

    • @troymuni6120
      @troymuni6120 4 года назад

      @@Pheil Correct. Mechanically, US cars are identical. The changes are all in the tune, so the flaps are shut. Even the emissions output is the same as the prior years, so I was surprised they tuned them shut when my car was delivered. The catless pipe will work as far as giving you a deeper sound, but the flaps are still closed and it won't preserve the entire warranty. They gave me a long list of parts that would be voided from anything I mod on the exhaust, but it's not the entire car (not a TDI flag). Audi is very strict about anything you do to the exhaust because of the emissions scandal. Mine is my DD (never mod my DD) and stock aside from some CF trim and BC wheels and tires, so I left it all alone. There's one other option that they sell in Germany, which you can buy online. It plugs into the exhaust flaps and you connect the ECU to it to fool it into thinking it's closed. Your exhaust vacuum pressure will change though and Audi will see it go out of spec when you bring it for service and they connect to it. Don't ever just unplug the flaps either btw... you'll get a hidden CEL and I've heard it cuts power.

    What people don't realize is that this is the ultimate European tuner car with simple bolt-ons. A TTRS is faster than platforms such as the F8x M3/M4 that I've had extensive ownership experience with. It takes the potential of the RS3 (which can trap 125-130 in the 1/4 mile on just a simple Stage 1 E85 tune), and adds to it because of the significant weight reduction. What's even more amazing is TTRSs have achieved high 5 and low 6 second 60-130 times on the stock turbo... For reference a Mclaren 720s runs 60-130 in ~5.1 second stock. Something that is insanely fast like a F90 M5 is ~8.2 stock. Normal performance cars such as a Mustang GT 10 Speed are easily over 10 second in the 60-130.

      Up to stage 2 is reliable on the motor. Long term (3+ years) you'll have DCT issues tho. Change your trans fluid more often, like mid way to the recommended service. Same for engine to be safe...it's an expensive oil change btw and a little complicated, so don't bring it to one of those franchise places. 600hp is where people start blowing motors, even those that are built with the drop in forged internals. It's a crap shoot since it's still not fully forged and has a high compression ratio that can't be lowered. Personally, I'd only go stage 1 unless you're building a dedicated 1/4 mile beast.

      @@thetacticalape8852 True to a degree. When I got my RS3 I was so angry that they included the E'U's WLTP tuning changes that closed the exhaust flaps, since we don't have that regulation in the US. My friend is my Audi Service rep, so he gave me detailed info. The only way to fix my issue was via a tune, which gets my flagged (no warranty). If I change out a pipe to get exhaust note a different way (leaving tune stock), there are list of parts that this mod would deactivate from warranty coverage. It's extensive but not the entire car. Wasn't worth it for me in the end since it's my DD. However, as you say, the car runs best leaving it stock. No issues for me at all and I pound it. Only changed wheels, tires, and CF exterior trim. Audi's not as unreliable as they were 5+ years ago though. I was skeptical as well, but I've owned an S3 and now an RS3 and haven't had even a momentary blip of a problem. The RS3 is the funnest car I've ever driven. I even sold my 700rwhp+ gen6 Camaro with a manual transmission because I loved the RS3 so much more for my purposes.

    The greatest thing about this engine is how easy it is to throw more power at it. A simple ecu tune with no other mods gets you up over 500hp and is night and day over stock power obviously. Then the fact with just a few Bolt ons and a stage 2 ecu flash puts you over 600hp and over 500 tq is just insane in a small capable car like this with already great handling. The amount of power on stock engine and stock turbo is really impressive. One of if not the best engines audi has ever built in these regards. And not to mention the sound from these engines are very unique and just awsome with an aftermarket

    such a great motor (I have a 2019 RS3 with the same power train). Unfortunately Audi applied an ecu change in 2019 and removed some of the extra exhaust crackles. Still a fantastic engine and exhaust but toned down from 2019+ when they implemented the particulate filter in Europe and applied the ecu change to the US even though we don't have the filter... Still one of the best point to point (stop light to stop light) machines available today.

    • @troymuni6120
      @troymuni6120 4 года назад

      Exactly same situation as me. I was livid when I found out. You'd have to get a tune or those plugs to fool the flaps. Problem is that exhaust vacuum pressure will be different and they will know, which will kill the warranty on a long, long list of parts. Not everything, but a lot. It doesn't sound anything like this video in RL either, but it gets better after putting on some miles. You have to cycle the drive modes too btw. Great car to drive up in the North East though, especially with Alpin snow tires in winter.

The DCT is pure gold in this car, especially if you have traffic. You never have to brake at all, it down shifts so quick, especially with the highly responsive paddles.
