fitted a bmc induction kit to my S3 and it seems to have lost power. there is also a hose that was connected to the old air box but it has nowere to go now can anyone help???
yes mate the induction kit is the BMC CDA the intake comes from the wing.
the car was remaped to 270bhp by the last owner ( or so he says ) no paper work to back this up though but it is very quick, a proper scooby eater.
yes i will do, do you know were i can download an S3 warkshop manual, been looking all over the net and cant get a decent one anywere, not had a vag before so im still taying to work my way round it. cheers
the light came on two days ago as it happens so now realy, but had an oil and fillter change plus the fuel filter changed about two months ago. got to go work in ireland for 10 weeks so unless i can find somwere across there that may have to wait
Welcome to TorqueCars - its always good to have another fellow Audi owner on board!
IMHO 270 seems optimistic for just a remap. Did he change the turbo or do any other mods? They are stunning cars though - I had to be sensible and get a 5 door T-Sport but I do envy you.
if your after 300 bhp then your going to need to change the turbo or at least get the standard one hybridised. as it really only good for around 280 bhp
do you know who mapped it ? several are rather optimistic with their gains
