O.CT Tuning is getting ready to show off this predominantly white three-door hatch dubbed the Boehler concept.BS3. The car is based on an Audi S3 quattro and as it can be partially noted from the pictures, some changes have been implemented. Among these are a blaring sport exhaust system that features an improved air intake system, 8-piston brakes with 372mm discs and Yokohama Advan Sport tyres 245/30 R 20 and 255/30 R 20. They are supported by a fully adjustable O.CT coilover suspension.

The exterior features widened rear fenders, an aerodynamically-designed rear bumper, a rear air diffuser and stainless steel tailpipes. The engine bay, battery and air intake have been covered in carbon fiber for that extra sporting touch.

Making the BS3 go forward is a 328hp (241kW) tweaked engine that also makes maximum torque of 425Nm. The BS3's makers say it will achieve the 0 - 100km/h time almost a whole second quicker than the standard Audi S3. The top speed is 265km/h.

O.CT Tuning will only build 100 units of the BS3 at a price of about €67,000 (US$86,100) each.

Bearing a striking resemblance to the boxy, legendary Urquattro, the „Boehler concept.BS3“ has the power to match its muscular styling: 328 horsepower and 425 Newtonmeters are the breathtaking results of O.CT Tuning´s engine enhancements.

The 328 horsepower O.CT-Stage 3 Kit includes a specially developed Engine control unit, a deep throated Sportexhaust with an integrated Controlfolds as well as an improved Air Intake System. Furthermore, an additional Intercooler keeps temperatures in check. Not suprisingly, the „BS3“ accelerates to 100 km/h almost a full second quicker than the Stock-S3. Top Speed rises from 250 km/h to a hefty 265 km/h.

A fully adjustable O.CT Coilover Suspension helps to put all that extra power to the ground effectively, while an 8-piston braking system with 372 Millimeter discs/rotors guarantee unparalleled, fade-free stopping prowess. O.CT Carbon-Fiber Add-ons for the engine, battery and air intake provide an additional sporty touch, hinting at the engine’s extra power.

When gazing at the aerodynamic package designed by Swiss Styling Expert Color Concept Boehler, the unforgettable Audi Urquattro immediately comes to mind. The widened fenders allow the use of a significantly bigger wheel-tire combination. Two piece, forged MÖZ-Wheels measure 9 x 20 inches up front and an impressive 10 x 20 inches at the rear. They are shed with Yokohama Advan Sport Tires with 245/30 R 20 and 255/30 R 20, respectively. The aerodynamically designed rear bumper including functional downforce enhancing fins frames the giant, four tipped O.CT-Sport Exhaust made from stainless steel – what better way to top off the sporty look of the „Boehler concept BS3“.

The „Boehler concept.BS3“ will be produced in a highly limited volume of 100 vehicles with a price tag of 99.950 Sfr (roughly 67.000 Euros).

I dont know what to say except that now there are about 10 different versions of tuned S3`s all making around 330 hp, so this isn`t any more exciting than the last tuned S3.

why on EARTH would anyone pay that sort of money for an S3?! You could buy a fully loaded M3 for that sort of money!!

good thing they are only building 100 of them. I'd feel sorry for the investors otherwise.

I totally agree with sub38h! I think maybe half that amount will be sufficient for a Golf...I mean S3...

well they got the BS right for Bull$%&*. If you are going to call a car a concept, come out with something that unique and hard to compare too. and the black stripes pulled back from the headlights, is so mid 90's

YEAH- I thought this concept is worthy of this great name- has the looks to match as well- I give the BS3 10/10 for naming- O.CT will have to do A LOT to match this BS with any BS that follows- For me- the looks, compared to a NORMAL A3 (not even the S3), very aggressive, very inventive, VERY BS...

Seriously now, I love the S3... own a MK5 GTI and this would be a fantastic step up. But this version I'd not be seen dead in. I'd be embarrassed - I should have a stronger character I know. But I believe people would be chuckling at the 4 rear exhausts etc. Give me a stock S3 anyday. It's not the most exciting look granted, but it's also full of no pretence.
