thanks!
what standard s3? yeah its kinda of a poor setup i agree... and that quattro system is pretty heavy... does the job well though...
so no bhp or torque figuers? 0-62 and 0-100 would be nice too

Don't get me wrong I think the S3 is a great car but If you're looking at figures then the scoob comes out on top. I don't have any figures to hand tho.

No problem.........I suspect yours would be very competitive. I'll leave it at that. I'm sure a few people will want to debate the relative merits of both cars tho

Doesn't really matter, I've seen an AMD S3 destroy a MY2000 Impreza. There is no competition.
The standard S3 almost accelerates as hard as a MY2000 Scoob through the gears but is not as quick off the mark.

Here we go.......................
Another My Scoobs better than your Audi or vise-versa.
My two penneth
0-60 is 6.9 v.s 5.3 for the scoob - that really does not compare!
BHP per tonne 155 v.s 178 so a bit off again!
top speeds around 140 for both, cannot remember the 1-100 or TED times
I drove a std S3 and Std My99 Scoob - Brought the Scoob, The S3 is better built, Scoob is a more involving drive and a lot more fun and feels (is faster). It also has more leg room, 4 doors and a bigger boot!
Bison - you did not mention your S3 was not std - play the game!
Most UK MY1999 Scoobs have around 227-235BHP as std
I am sure an AMD chipped S3 would 'destroy an stock Scoob - however there are more powerful and quicker Scoobs - Craig H's did a outstanding 0-60 of around 3.9 or so i believe - fair bit quicker than the RS4!
This could go on forever, horses for courses.
Drove both and made my decision - still happy with it.
Wayhey!
Could be the the 1st 'My cars better than your car' thread of 2002!!

yeah i agree with your scooby/audi comments... the s3 is very luxurious but not slow car as stock... really need to do something to it ecu wise to bring it to life... then its a monster!
"Bison - you did not mention your S3 was not std!"
i've now implied and said it straight out once... i'll say it again - my s3 **ISN'T** stock...
yeah and you can get a 330bhp s3 so yes it is horses for courses... but lets not go down that whole audi v's scooby route.... i just wanted on paper stats thats all!
can i delete this post now?

well im bored at work so i have nowt better to do than compare my torque figures to that of carrera's and m3's and laff...
so i thought i would find out what the scooby's do...
but i fear it's turning into V's war which is really tedious and you never get a clear answer...
which scooby owners are going to santa pod on the 27th?

yea.. I know Andre well.. very interested to see what he had done!...
Personally i am waiting on the RS6.. same 4.2 V8 but with twin turbo-charges. Audi say to expect 420 to 450 bhp but german tuning houses already looking to boost it to 600bhp!
Yipee!!.. get your orders in now.. £55,000 (cheaper as import)
