I’m always jealous of how well forced induction cars respond well to bolt-on mods, and the new 2015 Audi S3 is no exception – the guys at ModdedEuros.com were able to produce a 0-60 time of 3.9 seconds, nearly a full second faster than the 4.7 second time claimed by Audi, with just a Neuspeed Power Module (piggyback tune) and an intake! The runs were measured via a P3 digital gauge with the car in Dynamic Mode and the ESC button off to engage Launch Control – and man does it look fun! Watch the video below to see for yourself:
The Neuspeed Power Module costs just $359.95 from ModdedEuros and comes with free shipping – it can be installed in just a few minutes and is plug-and-play, so no professional installation is needed. It comes with two modes, one for premium fuel and one for race fuel (100+ octane). ModdedEuros dyno tested the product and showed a 36.2 HP increase and a 38.1 ft/lbs of tq increase from just the power module and a prototype cold air intake, very impressive gains for less than $1,000! The testing was done on a Dynojet AWD dyno running 92 octane and adjusted for SAE correction:
Another nice benefit of the Neuspeed Power Module versus a more traditional tune is that it can easily be removed at any time, and won’t cause a TD1 code to void your factory warranty – so if you take your car in for service, simply unplug the device and the dealership will think your car is all stock. It can also be moved easily from car to car, so if you sell your S3 down the road you can resell your tune, too! You can see their dyno chart below and notice it increases both HP & TQ consistently across the power band, giving you more power at pretty much any RPM:
