Dear fellow DS3 lovers,
After 20 weeks of hassle and BS (because I live in country where is very hard to get thing delivered online) , I'm back with my car tomorrow So since everything starts from scratch I thought I make another thread about it, explain what I went through and thank everyone on this forum who helped and was willing to answer my questions.
So, without too much talk I will explain a bit of my cars life, I got my car as a present for my birthday last year and it was with 10k miles on it. My father got the car 3 months before my birthday and changed some parts on it ( as I posted in the other thread ), he was ex-rally champion and is currently director of Federation of Autosports in Kosova, he loves cars and was very optimistic about the Racing, while I always drove it with the fear of the piston blowing , and he has a thing for Mercedes and Citroen ( currently have 3 M and 3 C haha).
My previous setup was:
DS3 Racing 11/2012 n.850/1000
Vector Tunning TB-W2 Powerbox
Bastuck Exhaust
Forge Intercooler + Oli Catch Tank Kit
Bilstein B12 Pro-Kit Shocx
Vmaxx LED and Headlight Cover
Now I've decided to get the Vector Tunning Chip off and do a decent remap. I did a engine rebuild with forged internals and changed to de-cat. The rebuild was done at Mercedes-Benz Dealership as my father know the owner and he could work together with their main mechanic on the car. (He used to tune his Mini Morris 20 years ago, will post pic as we still have the Mini )
Wossner Forged Pistons
PEC Automotive ConRods
Mahle ConRod Bearrings
Bastuck De-Cat
Wiechers-Sport Roll-Bar (Orderd another 8-12 weeks to come )
and a costum made front grill.
I'm not aiming for more than 250ish horsepower but we are trying to make it achieve the peak lower rpm, ~230hp@4500rpm.
I will post some pics tonight and have others here tomorrow.
Thank You very much for you help and support, (specially to Ragnarok, Jamie@SPTuning and Cyclone)
And a short video of the exhaust.
