I have been thinking about fully polishing the wheels, also been thinking about new wheels... been trying to find a set of SE37s.

Usually not a fan of the ep3 body style, but this one looks great with that paint. Not too much a fan of those wheels in that color. A nice polished set of wheels would really set if off

if you dont mind me asking, whats your motor setup? my buddy is toying around with the idea of supercharging his a3. he currently has the jackson racing race header on there so he kinda wants to put it to good use haha. if you could give me some power numbers or any advice for somebody who wants to boost it that would be greatly appreciated man..

Thanks man!! and thanks for the comments everyone else.

Im running an A3, KPro, JRSC, 3.8 blower pulley, accord crank pulley, water/meth injection, Buddy Club race header, RC 650 injectors... Think thats about it. It makes around 250-260 at the wheel. But I know a dude who has the same setup making 280.
