She is a quick car but no quicker than a stock S3, but definately equal to it. It's just nice to see the shock on the face of the driver when having a bit of a play when you are still right behind.

I dont know what the top speed is as I haven't taken it above 140mph. I believe the car should be good for 150+mph.
In gear speeds are what the re-map is all about, dependent on the boost/air/fuel settings on the Revo SPS3, coupled with the smaller turbo, gives less lag. The exact figures are 270 bhp with 306 lb/ft (415nm) torque. Clearly better than the S3 which is 261 bhp with 258lb/ft (350nm) torque. I don't know why yours has 272 bhp, perhaps more power for Greek market!

I wish I had done this months ago as it has transformed the car from a quick car to a capable hot hatch with an abundance of grip.

I almost bought a 330i. This is my 1st Audi but certainly not the last. I don't think you have done a a bad job buying the S3, I just couldn't justify spending the extra money, but if you can afford it, why not
