Audi S3 8V MQB IS38 Hybrid Turbo Upgrade Delivers 472 HP and 573 Nm at the Wheels
The Audi S3 8V is one of the most popular MQB performance cars, and for a good reason. It has strong factory hardware, quattro traction and a 2.0 TFSI engine that responds very well to the right upgrades. This project takes that potential to a much higher level.
Equipped with a MuchBoost MQB IS38 Hybrid Turbo Upgrade and tuned by AVP Motorsport, this Audi S3 8V achieved an impressive 472 HP and 573 Nm at the wheels.
That is a serious result for a street-driven MQB build. The full setup included AVP Motorsport MoreBHP STG 3 ECU software, AVP Motorsport MoreBHP STG 3 TCU software, AVP Motorsport Walbro 450 LPFP, Blaze Performance Race 4-inch intake, Autotech Sport Tuning HPFP and WMI 800cc.
This combination gave the car the airflow, fueling and software support needed to reach a very strong wheel horsepower result. The engine and gearbox were both properly prepared for this power level, which is essential in a complete MQB build.
The Audi S3 8V delivered 472 HP and 573 Nm at the wheels, showing how strong the platform can be when the turbocharger, software, fueling and intake system are prepared correctly.
The turbocharger was delivered by our authorized dealer, Beast Garage. This project is a great showcase of what a properly built Audi S3 8V can do with the MuchBoost MQB IS38 hybrid turbo and a strong AVP Motorsport tune.
