Racingline Performance Carbon Fibre Rear Body BraceThe new Rear Body Brace fits Hatch and Sportback A3 / S3 / RS3 8v models. It uses solid billet aluminium mounts secured into beautiful, ultra-stiff 3K-twill carbon fibre link bars to drastically stiffen the rear of the chassis.Modern cars like the Golf run a pretty stiff laser-welded body-shell. Up front, the chassis is very rigid between the suspension tops, but at the rear there is much more chassis flex which negatively affects vehicle handling in hard use, especially when combined with stiff suspension or under the sort of loadings that track use puts on the car. The new RacingLine Rear Body Brace solves this issue by locking the crucial hard points together.  By reinforcing and tying the rear strut towers together, the brace helps to maintain proper suspension geometry under heavy cornering loads. Remove the body-shell flex, and the suspension geometry can work as it was designed to do.Despite the added stiffness, this improved handling performance comes without sacrificing any ride quality or introducing any additional noise, vibration, or harshness into the cabin. The clever design means that installation is simple, using existing body mounting points with no drilling needed and no removal of trim required, and is completely reversible.RacingLine haven’t forgotten about practicality either. The brace is compatible with rear seats in either the up or down position, and due to the slim profile, boot space is almost unaffected. Even the load tie-downs have been incorporated into the lower mounts. Track your car on Sunday, school-run on Monday!

The difference? You will instantly feel your car responding with a new-found crispness and precision during cornering. This transformation does come at a small trade off against ride comfort, but careful design of the bushing materials means that this is achieved with minimaltransmission of any excess noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) into the cabin. Most enthusiast drivers love the feeling of precision, and being more connected with their car and removing the ‘squidge’ that any standard road car gives when drivenhard. For any car that has covered higher mileage, replacing the bushes instantly restores the ‘new car feel’, giving a tight, controlled ride and responses. Ultimately you will have a safer vehicle with more consistent grip and improved feedback. When combined with other suspension modification such as ‘Cup Edition’ Front Suspension Upgrade Kit, the Coilover Suspension range, Solid Adjustable Top Mounts or Anti-Roll bars, the effect on your car’s chassis is transformative.

The MacPherson strut front suspension layouton the VWG ‘A5’ platform cars (such as Golf 5, 6, Scirocco, A3, S3, Leon, Octavia) is a common design. Although it is a popular choice for manufacturers, due to its simplicity and low manufacturing cost, the standard design has a few disadvantages when it comes to high-performance applications. Firstly, there is almost zero freedom to adjust static camber, caster or roll-center geometry which as we know from our race programme is absolutely critical for handling on the VWG A5-platform cars. The other drawback for high-performance use is that as this layout tends to transmit noise and vibration from the road directly into the body shell, manufacturers have to add extra noise reduction and isolation mechanisms. In other words, plenty of movement in the original factory soft rubber bushing controlling the lower control arm.

Racingline Silicone Boost Hose Kit for MQB EA888 Gen.3 – VWR140004 The RacingLine Boost Hose package replaces the original rubber charge pipes with beautiful smooth-flowing silicone replacements, uniquely reinforced with internal wiring for guaranteed stiffness under the demands of high heat and boost levels.The kit is a direct OEM replacement: simply remove the old weak, flexible rubber hoses and replace them with our five-piece kit. Simple. Stepped internal joint transitions give a port-matched laminar airflow path, greatly reducing turbulence versus other non-stepped designs.  Of course our kit is pressure tested far beyond the turbo’s capabilities, the system maintains performance under extreme temperature and high-boost conditions.By minimising these restrictions, the smoother airflow and optimised hose routing ensures that the turbo meets less resistance and can thus perform more effectively – moving a larger volume of air and minimising turbulence.The RacingLine Boost Hose Kit is probably the only one on the market which comes with five hoses included – although you will only need to fit four of them.The choice of which Turbo Outlet Pipe (bottom) depends whether the car is pre- or post-2017. It’s really easy to choose which to use:  it’s either long or short depending on what OEM pipe is removed, meaning that (unlike other kits) you can’t really get this wrong!  Designed to work in perfect harmony with the Racingline MQB Intercooler Compatibility > VW Golf 7 & 7.5 GTI & Clubsport 2013-2020> VW Golf 7 & 7.5 R 2013-2020> VW Golf 7 & 7.5 1.8 TSI 2013-2020> VW Passat 2.0 TSI B8 2015+> VW Arteon 2.0 TSI 2017+> VW T-Roc R 2.0 TSI 2019+> VW Tiguan II 2.0 TSI 2016+> VW Jetta VII GLI 2019+ > Audi S3 8V 2013-2020> Audi A3 2.0 TSI / 1.8 TSI 8V 2013-2020> Audi TT 3 2.0 TSI 8S 2014+> Audi TTS 3 2.0 TSI 8S 2015+> Audi SQ2 2018+ > SEAT Leon III Cupra 5F 2014-2020> SEAT Leon III 1.8 TSI 5F 2014-2020> SEAT Ateca Cupra 2018+ > Skoda Octavia III vRS 2.0 TSI 5E 2014-2020> Skoda Superb III 1.8 / 2.0 TSI 3V 2015-2020 Applications Please note, customers are wholly responsible for checking fitment for their vehicle.

Racingline Audi S3/RS3 Lowering Springs Lowering Range:* 20mm Front and Rear Racingline lowering springs are the perfect first addition to your Audi S3 (8V). If you use your car on a daily basis and are only looking to uprate one aspect of your car, you can’t do better than our VWR Sport Springs. They replace the car’s four standard springs with re-engineered, different-rate and slightly shorter Sport Springs. The vehicle’s center of gravity is lowered, reducing body roll for better dynamics, whilst maintaining the ride quality and comfort of your car. Meanwhile, the car’s appearance is transformed. By getting rid of those nasty wheelarch gaps, it’ll look like it always should’ve from the factory! Compatibility Audi S3 2013+ (8V) – 3-Door Hatch, 5-Door Sportback and 4-Door Saloon Audi RS3 2015+ (8V) – Sportback and Saloon Perfect Performance. Many experts consider suspension development to be as much an art as a science. In truth, it’s a bit of both. Go lower or stiffer than our springs and your car will bounce and crash as the dampers are mismatched to spring-rate, and the springs themselves run out of travel. Our progressive-rate spring construction means the spring rate in the middle of travel is very similar to standard. It’s only towards the end of the spring’s travel (so, when braking or cornering hard) that we have engineered the spring to stiffen up. It’s this progressive-rate spring design that gives such good ride quality.
