    did you apply the GTechniq yourself, or have a shop do it?
    I forgot to answer. A shop did it. It was like $2370 for Tint, Xpel "full front" and GTechniq.

    Midpipes installed... and I'm done. Sound is much more pronounced especially behind the car. The extra cats the US and Canadian versions get on the car are such a waste.

    Congrats OP! The RS3 is a sick car. I wish the sportback/wagon version was available in the states for the additional practicality, but you can't go wrong with an RS3 for a DD.

    Here's one more video; it's my favorite. The transmission has distinct behaviors in launch control vs rolling start. With launch control the upshifts are smoother, and you can almost not even know it's shifting if you aren't listening and looking at the tack like in that video.

    Whereas from a rolling start the transmission has much more violent upshifts. It burps hard and you can feel it in the seat of your pants. I love it. This video also shows off the exhaust a bit better. Friggin love the sound of this 5 cylinder and turbo.

    Dam great choice. I feel like the RS3 is a better DD than the hellcat in every way possible especially if you already own a Z06. Car looks clean as fk.

    Had a little fun with my friends heads / cam / intake LS1 on a tire (ET Street radial 18") 430rwhp and 409 tq. Gave him the break. I spun and wheel hopped but car still did well. Passenger for me, none for him.

    Swapped the stock rims for some RSe10's. 19x8.5 front, 19x8 rear like the stock setup.

    Stock wheels are 29lbs. These are only 19lbs. Felt an immediate difference in steering and braking.

    Its an underrated performance mod. When I swapped mine it was I think it was 11lbs a corner, combine that with better rubber. The change was so extreme that I had to do stiffer sway bars just to deal with the new grip and handling. With the stiffer suspension combined with the wheels and tires it was like a whole new car.

    The first thing I noticed driving around was the steering felt as light as it is in "comfort" mode. I swapped it into comfort then back to dynamic to verify I wasn't missing something and nope... dynamic steering feels like the old comfort mode. Comfort now is literally light as a feather.

    Juicy af.

    My gf just picked up a 2018 q5. The interior/cockpit is just absolutely amazing, looks about the same as in yours. The displays and it's options are probably the coolest of any car I've been in.

    The RS3 interior is very minimalistic but what is there is quality. You're hard pressed to touch something hard plastic that you don't have to go out of your way to hit. The only thing that would have made this car a 10/10 for driver cockpit experience for me would be a HUD. There are a few other options missing from the virtual cockpit which I wish existed like the ability to display android auto on it instead of the MMI and better performance gauges. I can't see my oil pressure anywhere? Like wtf. Oil temperature is there however.

    Even on really cold mornings with the loud stereo rattles have been to a minimum as well which is nice. My 16' accord I had previously rattled so bad on cooler mornings.

    Still loving it. 6K miles in.

    Car now has an intercooler, extra set of wheels with 4 drag hoosier DR's and I'm burning that good ole american corn. Car went 10.9x @ 126 with the only mod being Stg1 E85 tune.. LOL. I will check it again soon with the new tires, intercooler etc. Maybe some 10.6 10.5?

    Looking good. Black optics FTW.

    I recommend Unitronic if you decide to tune. Their customer service is unparalleled. I am in their whatsapp group and any questions or concerns are handled mostly immediate.
