I just picked up my Audi RS3 FL Sedan with OPF from HPerformance. I got the 4-inch exhaust system and a Stage 3 upgrade. I’m just super happy with how it drives and, above all, how brutal it sounds despite the OPF. Everything worked great—I can really recommend it to anyone who loves their five-cylinder engine!!
The Level 5 performance upgrade with 707 PS and 835 NM is identical to Stage 4 in terms of hardware, but includes the TC Turbos X8, the large milled intake manifold, the 80 mm boost pipe kit, and the 4" exhaust system. The stock engine is disassembled, cleaned, measured, and then reinforced with our engine components.
Hardware changes:
- TC Turbos X8 Turbo in exchange
- HP 4-inch (101.6 mm) Exhaust System
- Engine reinforcement with compression reduction by HP special connecting rods
- HP Sport Series intercooler with air ducts
- HP 4-inch (100 mm) Aluminum Turbo Inlet
- HP 4-inch 100 mm aluminum intake (variant selectable)
- Sports air filter insert
- HP 4-inch (101.6 mm) RACE Downpipe (Cat options available: Catless, 100-cell, or 400-cell)
- HP DSG Catchtank black or red
- HP Large milled intake manifold
- Engine oil change to Motul 300V Competition
- NGK spark plug set R-series
- HP rubber torque arm
- Modified injection valves
- HP High-Performance Clutch Kit (DQ500) with Reinforced Flywheel
- HP 80 mm Boost Pipe Kit with Throttle Valve Elbow
Software changes:
- Adjustment of all performance-relevant maps on our all-wheel drive test bench
- Adjustment of oil and exhaust gas temperature, component protection functions
- Increasing the V-Max according to the installed brake system
- Test drives in real operation for data recording
- Adaptation of the transmission software to the engine software
- Switching times in S and M are shortened
- Transmission response times are improved
- Switching logic is improved
