Hi All,

I recently purchased a 2015 Audi A3 1.4 (150bhp) TFSI S Line. I am thrilled to bits with it but I want to make it faster. I have been looking at getting the ECU remapped but I wanted to ask what other modifications I can make without putting to much stress on the engine? Also is that engine Turbocharged? I have had mix responses to that question so I would love some clarity.

I am in the Reading area but if anyone knows any decent and trustworthy garages to visit that would be much appreciated!

Thanks.

It is turbocharged, with intercooler. Check the specs here: Audi A3 | Audi MediaCenter (https://www.audi-mediacenter.com/en/audi-a3-12)
Quite frankly, I would not expect much performance boost from this engine, it's only 1.4 and already pretty stretched in terms of power output. In any case, I would be very careful with ECU remap.
