I just couldnt help me self ( and no its not silver )

but dont worry i kept the sti 5 ra for proper driving

and guess what you can now chip TT's to give 300 bhp

if only subaru made a drop top 2 door imagine the sound through a tunnel with a full SS system

Dont appologise Tim they are a great looking car and not bad performance either. But no substitute for a scoob. Graham.

 

Tim,

I'm off to Oulton Park to thrash a TT around the track on one of their driving days..

Can't wait..


Neil

 

Nice of you to buy the wife a car.

 

Have they sorted out the problems that caused them to do the roly poly.

 

Yeah DS
Afaik they've added a little wing to the rear to stop this ?
I think

Niall

--->fantastic car and an engine that can take 2.5bar boost with the right people playing with it.

300bhp not an issue and they handle very well, feel great with good tyres

Yeah........they added a spoiler *and* suspension mod's to make it *REALLY* understeer.......Golly, that sounds like a really interesting hairdressers car to drive............................................. .................................................. ........................! There isnt even lift off oversteer to make things exciting (now).

Please tell me where you can buy a chip that gives 300bhp ?. Someone has been telling you lies. You can get 265bhp with a chip and exhaust. After that its big mod time. The MTM 300+bhp cost over £5,000. MTM, ABT, AMD, Oettinger can only manage 255-260 with a chip.

TKH, what did you expect coming on here saying you bought a TT, then? Not silver, either. Is it that lovely shade of army green they do? Goes well with mud-coloured alloys. And a perm.

But I see you kept the STi 'just in case.' Very prudent, M8

Richard Hopkins

 

No i went for in your face red with 17 inch competition wheels but agree green is v-nasty

knowing my luck it will now **** down all year now oh well that means i'll have to use the scooby

Regards

Tim

 

Tim, okay. One point conceded. That's a lovely looking car you've got there, M8!

If you're brave enough to make an Audi post on here again, I would really like to know how you get on with a few mods. I drove one a little while ago and even the quick model wasn't that fast, though it felt like it could take a lot more poke. 300bhp, eh? That would be well tasty.

If you're up for some mods, please mail Webmaster Simon de Banke (or me). I know he's looking for a few more Subaru vs The Rest challenge-type tests for ScoobyNews.

And hey, let's hope it does rain! That way you'll get the most from the all-wheel-drive chassis and you won't have to take the top down and mess up your hair

Richard Hopkins

 

Richard totally agree M8 needs chipping and proper exhaust fitting this will get it closer to the essential 300 bhp level

and who knows maybee it will be quicker than my sti 5 ( only joking )

Once its ready will gladly contact simon re a possible scooby versus tt.

Regards

Tim

 

Tim

Still not sure how you think you will get to even near 300bhp with a chip and exhaust. I did the same mods on my old S3. I wanted more power and talked to everyone. Above 265bhp and you need major mods. If someone is telling you different, please let me know as I'm interested for one of my cars.

Chins

look at this link it can be done but might need a few quid !http://www.quattrosports.co.uk/SPEC/tt180.asp

Regards

Tim

 

Tim

Kim at Quattrosports is the guy I used to convert my S3. As you can see its hardly a chip and exhaust to get the 300bhp. AMD is a bit cheaper and have been/got a 300bhp TT. new Turbo and downpipes etc

Jonathan

 

Maybee ill just have to chip it to 265 bhp cheap option and then strip it bare to improve the bhp to weight ratio what do you think Chins

Regards

Tim
