    Great review!, it absolutely rips!, looks like a lot of fun, and as always, that RS would be a lot more expensive here in Aus.

      @@lucaking4041 that’s really not entirely true, what happens is kids upgrade from their Honda accord that’ll survive neglectful maintenance to something like this, thrash it around and don’t service it properly, and then wonder why it has issues. There are very few people who service their euro properly and have catastrophic failure. I for instance have owned 7 BMW’s with no faults short of regular oil changes, spark plugs, valve cover gasket and brakes etc. all inexpensive stuff

      @@KiwiCarLife I don't feel like many people upgrade from a Honda Accord to something like this in most cases at all there is a couple stepping stones in between those pay brackets - a lot of the euro's especially mid 2000s ones are bought cheap and neglected in and endless cycle, at one point they where an expensive luxury car that either became an after thought due to an upgrade and was sold far below RRP to someone who couldn't afford to maintain them - Saying you have owned 7 BMWs with no faults when on your channel alone there is at least 3 we have watched you drop thousands of dollars into after picking them up not to mention you have friends working at the shop and are handy yourself.

      @@lucaking4041 hang on though, the M3 I bought with a dying transmission for cheap, fixed it for a lot less than what they’re worth and will sell and make a profit. The 130i needed new tyres, rotors, pads and numerous oil changes because it went on 8 track days and did 20,000km in less than a year, the Z4 I bought with a leaky valve cover and squeaky belt and negotiated accordingly when I bought it (it was about $30 to fix). Angel’s Z4 again I bought with squeaky brakes, blown bulbs and a dead coolant level sensor and fixed. This is all just regular maintenance. The most money I’ve ever spent maintaining/fixing a car was my Accord Euro S and Euro R, my Skyline and my Legacy.
      And I wasn’t necessarily meaning something like this, but say a Golf GTi or Audi S3 or something. Euros aren’t “unreliable” they’re just sensitive to maintenance. If you let things slip service after service the potential bill just gets bigger and bigger.

      @@KiwiCarLife They don’t have the reputation they do for no reason - this is recency and confirmation bias on your end here. I’d watch any of ReDrivens break down on those “upgrade” cars and you’ll see the truth confirmed pretty quickly. Not saying eith good management they can’t keep going but it’s not as easy and certainly not as cheap.

    Surprised by the turbolag. 142hp per liter isn't that high to suggest it has a big turbo, maybe they just limited it in low revs to protect the gearbox.
    My civic has 225hp out of a 1.5, so its at the same 140-150hp per liter range. But the tuner had to also limit the torque at 1500-2000rpm because it actually put out so much boost in the low revs (>350nm at 1500rpm) that it might snap the shafts, slip the clutch or damage all sorts of stuff. So maybe they went extremely conservative on the DCT, i have no tuning knowledge outside of Honda though :P
    But what My honda doesn't do, is sound like that :( Gloriously sonorous.

    • @KiwiCarLife
      @KiwiCarLife  Месяц назад

      Yeah who knows it could be that. But that said yours is tuned. Stock they don’t make anywhere near that much power so for this to make as much power as it does from a stock engine the turbo must be bigger

    • @The_Noticer.

      @@KiwiCarLife Stock they are 121hp per liter (182hp). Not that far off. I know these 2.5's can make a lot more, but I think in this case its to protect the gearbox. And maybe these early turbo engines were tuned to give people more of that NA feel. The midrange hump thing is really jarring if you're coming from an NA car. Who knows, maybe an Audi buff/tuner in your audience knows :)
