love how the car sounds. I just out my downpipe on last weekend and I did the stage 2 tune and its wicked fast now. I'm glad I did the tune ive waited over a year to do it. also congrats on the new race car lol. hope to see more of the build soon!!!!!!
Great video. I am currently running IE Stage 2 & IE FBO on my TTRS. Definitely worth it. Maybe you can do some dragy in 0-60, 1/4 to see how fast it is.
@@LeParfumAndy i second this, i've run Neuspeed's on my GTI for years now, have hit pot holes and all sorts of stuff and they are as true as the day they were new. Hard to beat the pricing on them as well.
Thinking of adding this to the collection. Got a turbo ls swapped 135i with m4 dct, which is nearly a full blown race car, a Silverado, now I need a daily… if you don’t mine me asking what’s your insurance cost like on this ?
Depending on when you go if you want some more content I could meet you there with my ttrs and we can run them side by side until I get kicked out the track for going to fast 🤣
@@NewEnglandPeteahhh gotcha, I have a 2020 nardo grey edition with sports exhaust it came with, just bought this stage 1 tune but do you think this tune will bring that burble and pops heard at 9:16?
@@ClarenceValeros The 2020 has a different engine. I'm not sure about America but here in the UK the emission rules killed the sound of the newer RS3s.
Forget intake exhaust. Big boy car!.. get a proper intercooler for the added boost. Make it run at optimal performance. Since the beginning of time with boosted VAG cars IC is the weak point when adding power (or even factory it holds back when hot)
you're splitting hairs a bit when it's OTS tunes to be honest.....things don't start to make a big difference between tuners/brands until you go full on custom tune.
@@chrism869 my butt Dyno says it's a lot quicker. I did the ECU and TCU tune with turbo inlet and carbon intake. A simple stage 1 makes it a much more enjoyable daily

IE off-the-shelf tunes are the way to go, customer service is one of the best.
Getting my DP next week on my mk6 gti can’t wait
Let’s go!!
@@NewEnglandPete gonna miss the R on your channel but the rs3 has some good potential and it sounds great
I love the RS3!
Same man,absolutely amazing car
Just found your channel the other day and I am also from New Hampshire! Nice car man :D
Damnnnnnn, congrats man good to see your still killing it....👍
My man! Thanks for stopping by. Hope all is well. 🙏🏻
Is everything stock with the car at this stage besides the tune?

That's the plan! Thanks Alex!
I’m trying to find some clean chrome rims for my mk7 gti
I prefer the apr rims super light and there on sale right now
Get some clean ass hyper silver neuspeed wheels.. also light weight

beautiful
When you said it removes startup rattle is that the oil pressure that’s lost and the timing chain rattling you’re talking about or something else
wastegate rattle
Eventuri intake, Milltek exhaust and 19″ OZ Leggera would be a nice touch 👌

Will you be bringing the rs3 to the track ?

would love to see some pov videos of random driving
i’ll make it happen.
Get a dragy Pete!🤙🏻
Already got one! I’ll be sure to use that when comparing stock / tuned times

Lmao bro that thing doesn't need an exhaust. Stop wasting money Lol!!
@jimbrown5605 Stay tuned for the exhaust video. 😊
Hello New England Pete I wish to do a collaboration 😉 can’t wait to see the rs3 buddy 🫶🏼
I’m game! 😎
034 was the move. slight bias haha. IE is respectable
Just went stage 1 ecu/tcu on my 2020 S3 and freaking love it.. 034 is my go to now
@@LeParfumAndynice,how much hp did the tune add

@@1FastMKVSupra I did 034 because I lived in the East Bay near their HQ. OTS tunes for stage 1 are mostly similar
dont touch the DP. Unless you want your car to sound like a shotgun
Time to unsubscribe, was nice while it lasted. RIP golf R
Break-ups can be hard. Thanks for watching.
