Update 1 - Acquisition
The Car: 2016 Audi A3 2.0 TFSI Premium Plus
Current Condition: Very stock
Introducing the newest ECS project car, ECS Project A3. We're starting out with a very boring very stock Audi 2016 A3... very stock (exciting stock photos below!). We're teaming up with a great group of sponsors to take this baby from bland to grand!
Stay tuned for more updates and details on the ECS Project A3 build!
Update 2 - How good is stock?
Current Condition: STILL very stock
Ready for a quick review of ECS Project A3? Watch and see what Zach thinks of the new project!

Update 3 - Lower the altitude increase the attitude.
Current Condition: Not 100% stock, Coilovers installed.
Well, we decided the stock 4x4 esk ride height just wasn't going to work, and the spring rates and dampening could use a little tweaking. Lucky for us our partner Bilstein was able to supply us with a B16 (PSS10) Coilover Kit (LINK), and with that, the transformation from stock to stunner begins.

Once it's traded in it'll be a little less of a funny looking BMW.....
Update 4 - Let's brag about our 60-0
Current Condition: Lower and slower.... stopping
We're turning our A3 into a real driver. With the plans of power in the near future, we decided to go ahead and upgrade Project A3s brakes with a massive StopTech 6 Piston 355mmx32mm Big Brake Kit up front and upgraded pads, rotors, lines in the rear.

Why post an Audi on a BMW forum? Please upgrade that Audi ... crush it and buy a BMW, then post it!

I’m just curious - what was the point of this whole thing? Are Audi customers a larger percentage of your customer base, hence going with an A3? I’m genuinely curious. You’re starting behind the 8 ball with that chassis selection in my eyes.

The point was to excite customers and do something fun. It was a success.

well, that's good, but I would never switch my BMW for an Audi!
What is this cancer on the screen????
