APR Stage 3 kit has been finalised released for RHD conversions.
My car a MKIV AUM engined Golf is being fitted with this kit next week....2 week fitting time.
This the first UK kit developed in Australia by APR Australia.
The manifold has been developed with a lifetime warranty which is the most important aspect in my view.
It uses all the APR parts as per their web site except the manifold is slightly different manifold. Utilising the GT28RS turbo my car will have the APR base map installed then tweaked accordingly to produce in excess of 340hp.
Can't wait as I have run out of options my present set up APR stage 2 with FMIC on KO3s and Milltek etc etc.
This kit is already on Jim's car at Awesome but he has the GT2871RS turbo capable of more on the TT. Car has been dyno'd at over 400hp in Australia. It seems the RHD conversions on stage 3 due to the pipework configuration produces better spoil up 300rpm earlier and more power/torque.
APR state that stock internals will be sufficient on my kit. They have been producing this kit on all VAG I.8T units but advise uprating internals over 345bhp. I am discussing stronger internals with Awesome as a safeguard. I tend to a fair few track days as it is but the car is primarily a road car but with quite a bit done for track use.
I expect this kit will easily fit Cupra R's so I expect some will be interested.
I will take some photos and give an update when finished.
