I am a big Audi fan and have owned many over the last 20 years.
The TT represents a bit of a departure from the norm for Audi and they created a great and fun sports car. Styling is somewhat unfairly criticised as being a bit like a beetle but the car clearly is a trend setter rather than a trend chaser.
Audi can now put their excellent range of engines and quattro drive train to good use in a chassis that has been designed with fun and handling in mind.
The S3 is a good car tuning project to play with. Audi have done many modifications to the S3 including a twin intercooler and 4 wheel drive (haldex) system to help put the power down. This gives an excellent base for a tuning project and we look at the best mods for this awesome car.
Drop the S3 optimally somewhere in the region of 20mm and fit stiffer adjustable shocks, bigger drops will need other modifications in most instances or your arches will rub on the tyres, especially if you have fitted larger rims.
Due to concerns about emissions and tighter controls the 2.0 TFSi engine was born and contains a number of major revisions to enhance engine efficiency. The 1.8T engine was retired and replaced with a more powerful turbo charged 2.0 FSi unit.
The most notable revision is the introduction of direct injection allowing very fine control over fuelling and as well as the extra economy on offer the engine provides a lot of extra performance.
The A4 range from 1995 continuing the Audi range of high quality executive cars. In the A4 Audi had a car which rivals the BMW 3 series, albeit without the image. The range includes a selection of body styles from the Saloon to the Estate model. Reliability is up to the usual high Audi standards and the huge range of engine choices ensure there is a model suitable for most drivers needs.
The A4 is the Audi take on the executive car – something which they have executed very well.
