🥶 Turbo Blue S3 8Y 🥶 440BHP 🚀 Here at APS we’re making moves with the Gen4 platform recently, all the way from our STG 1 ECU & TCU calibrations through to full Stage 3+ (E85) builds. This stunning Audi S3 8Y finished in Turbo Blue is now pushing a serious 440BHP and it’s only just getting started 👀 @sircolgate The EA888 Gen 4 platform is proving to be an absolute weapon. With improved factory hardware, we’re seeing huge gains while keeping drivability OEM+. Paired with our custom ECU & TCU calibration, the power delivery is relentless yet refined exactly We’re seeing stronger and stronger results from the VAG MQB Evo platform, and it’s quickly proving itself as one of the best modern 2.0T bases to build from. The streets are getting quicker, and this Gen4 wave is only just beginning 🌊 Who’s going Stage 3+ next? 😈 Don’t forget - we supply a huge range of OEM and aftermarket performance parts, along with servicing and tuning for a wide variety of makes and models.

Pocket Rocket 🚀 IS20 - IS38 390BHP - 500NM An IS38 conversion refers to upgrading the factory turbocharger (IS20) on these Audi S1’s to a larger IS38 turbocharger, These are the same turbo’s that are fitted to the Golf R, Audi S3, and Seat Leon Cupra The benefits of running these billet cores are the fact the IS38 from factory are known to be very weak and fail as you start putting them through its paces, the billet core gives it 40% strength over a stock core with uprated 360 thrust bearing’s and many more little upgrades which makes it a good alternative - IS38 Sourced - Billet core fitted to original housing - New Actuator - All Main Gaskets - Oil & Filter using @rowemotoroilofficial - @scorpionexhausts Downpipe - @airtecmotorsport Stage 2 Intercooler - @apsnorthwest Custom In-House Tune - N/S/R wheel speed sensor re wired - Vibra-Technics Dog Bone mount This vehicle was Tuned by the guys down at @apsnorthwest these are one of the best in the NW For these cars and many more of the Volkswagen Audi Group! *Due to IAT’s in the dyno cell being so high due to one of the fans failing, this car had to be tuned on the road* If you have any questions about similar work feel free to get in touch via the phone number 📍Unit 17/18 Cosgrove Business Park CW96FY ☎️01606252977 📩ash@road two-group.com/[email protected] 💻
