My your just a wealth of Audi Info aren't you.
I thought the S3 used an inline 4 or a V6, Audi droped the inline 5 years ago, after selling the rights to Honda.

God damn this is no S3 , it's an old S4 based on the audi 100 , it came with 2.2 turbo producing 230 hp or a 4.2 V8 in many versions and names
here is the audi S3 (the real thing): |

Sorry to dig this thread out from its grave, but there's something i never quite understood about the S3. I like the car, it looks great, but i have a problem with performance. The original had 210bhp, and 4wd, yet 0-60 was around 7 seconds. I knew it wouldnt handle, like, say, an Integrale, but in a straight line i thought it should have been nearer 6 seconds in the dash to sixty. Hell, the equally powered and equal power-to-weight- ratio Lancia Integrale EVO managed it in 5.7!
Whats the deal Audi? |

Less torque, higher gearing.
According to Autocar, the Integrale Evolution did it in 6.0, and the S3 did it in 6.4. |

Well, EVO claims 6.2 for the S3, guess the tester has a lot to do with it.

Brass air fittings
Now that is a lot of brass air fittings http://www.liangdianup.com/subpages/airfitting_1.htm there is just about every type
of air fitting that you could want. Wholesale prices too. I guess these could be used as small water pipe fitting also. I used some of the parts to make my babington wvo burner. |
