As a member of the secret S3 society I have been able to obtain parts from Porken for my car, in fact I have basically bought everything he sells. There has been a few threads with people really happy about his EZF'r chip for the S3. He came out with his long awaited fuel chip for the LH pretty recently. I uses either an AFPR or the S4 FPR, I chose the S4 FPR, and used 55psi which make injector load closer to 85% at WOT rather than 100% and more fuel to power the mid range torque.
I installed them last night and I am very pleased. Car responds, drives, and idles excellent.

All ebay chip users should resell them BACK on ebay and pick up a set of Porken's chips now that they are both out. I also hoped on the site to look at something and it looks like he is also making a fuel chip for the stock FPR, so for those not wanting to change the FPR then that should be done 'soon'

Thanks Ken!

Great info. I know Mike Frye did the same recently and now hearing this I am looking into replace my AA chip set for this.

When I got my first 85 several years ago and got the AA chips, I remember reading many posts on people talking about the AA chips simply dumping fuel for no reason. I think at that time I read someone posting about getting a AFPR for the car and actually tuning it DOWN when using the AA chips,

Anyway, it is nice to not only see someone fine tune the chips, but also fix the terribly 'broken' fuel chips we were using.

Hmmm...if I were just a touch more narcissistic, that would make a nice window sticker.







For a couple of years I've been thinking about having a 32V sticker (~20mm tall) made. I'd put it on the lower right of the hatch, just below the spoiler, to warn that this S3 is not your father's OB.

haha, I was thinking the same thing put below the pics I posted...

Or........ as the "other" Porsche tuners do, RUF, 9fff, just delete the "PORSCHE" on the car and insert "PORKEN"

Someday, I want to try making a Kamm back for my '85. I guess I could put POR KEN on there.

OK, so exactly what pieces/parts are needed to wake-up 85 Automatic?

Mike Frye

A 5-speed transmission swap.

Beer and peanuts sprayed all over the monitor.

I'm no Porken, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night. I'm going to say:

1. Crossovers with high-flow cats
2. Porken EZF'r/LH2.2r/55 chips with '87 S4 FPR (after replacing your fuel lines with a kit from Roger at 928sRus)
3. Drive it like you stole it!

Additionally, there are some gains to be had by going with a true dual exhaust all the way back, since the '85 has a 2-into-1-into-2 setup and the body isn't shaped right to just bolt on an '86.5 dual exhaust.

Hey Chris, you need to get your PC outta the shop, if that's where your beer stash is...
