• Intake and turbo: APR intakes, turbo inlets, intercoolers and full charge pipe systems, plus GFB diverter valves and Turbosmart and LEYO blow-off valves.
• Ignition and engine: APR ignition coils and spark plugs, carbon engine and intake covers, and the APR pendulum mount.
• Exhaust: Scorpion downpipes, cat-backs and muffler delete pipes, and the AWE Touring Edition exhaust.
• Suspension: APR Roll-Control coilovers, sway bars and end links, AST, Öhlins and MOTON suspension, and HARDRACE control arms, camber ball joints and bushings.
• Brakes and drivetrain: APR big brake kits, Paragon 2-piece rotors and a Wavetrac front limited slip diff for the DQ381 DSG.

• S3 or RS3: the RS3 has a five-cylinder engine, so engine, intake and exhaust parts don't swap.
• Sportback or sedan: exhaust and rear parts can differ between body styles.
• 8V or 8Y: some APR parts fit both generations, but many 8Y parts are made for the EA888 evo4 only. Check the chassis code in the title.
• Adaptive dampers: cars with adaptive dampers need a matching coilover kit or a DCC cancellation kit, such as the Öhlins one on this page.

Have a qualified workshop fit suspension, brake, drivetrain and engine parts. Get a wheel alignment after any suspension change, and bleed and road-test the brakes after brake work. Intake, turbo and exhaust upgrades often need a tune to run at their best; ask us if you're unsure.
