I know this is off topic here please don't hate me. LOL

I am sitting here wondering the cost of maintenance cost of a TT 1.8t. Is parts freely available from your common parts shop, lets use Goldwagen for example?

I know the 8L S3 can burn holes in some wealthy peoples pockets. LOL

GREAT BUILD BY THE WAY. Ill be keeping an eye on this one. :popcorn:
I drove my father's one for about 3 years, they are solid cars. I enjoyed it thoroughly. Great ride, handling isn't great but it's not bad either. The 1.8t 20v motor can take a serious beating. You have to be seriously heavy foot to break something. The one I drove was manual 6spd quattro, and they're like stink off the line. I guess you can compare the service prices to that of all the 1.8t audi vehicles that use the AUG motor. It was never a money pit for us, we just gave it its services and it kept on going, never had any diff problems or gearbox related problems, or any problems for that matter.

I would definitively buy one for myself when I have the financial means to buy one, it makes a great fast ish daily with a fair boot. Just don't expect to give anyone taller than 1.5m a ride in the back :lol:

Good evening all,

You guys wont believe me but 4 damn long years later the cars finally driving,

Must say the torque off boost is pretty damn amazing and waiting patiently for software now.

Going with Eurodyne Meastro so we can see what it does.

Pics to follow

Oh BTW cams are really extremely aggressive and idles like a wild dog!!

I tune these ECUs without Eurodyne. I've owned and used Eurodyne Maestro before and it's greatly lacking in the kind of fine detail needed, especially when you add in variables, like performance cams etc. And it's hugely expensive. There just simply aren't enough maps/tables as part of the interface.

Also, a DW265v is not going to cut it at all, not for that power and especially not for that power on E85.

Guys have already mentioned speaking the Mike aka Thanas

He’ll sort you out no problem with a proper tune

He even commented here with a good post about your setup

Unless you just stubborn and refuse to deal with him lol
