Audi RS3 engine swap on a VW Tiguan: Brutal-sounding family car sleeper

One of the most eye-catching cars from 2023's VW Campfest, this Tiguan family car packs some serious punch courtesy of the Audi RS3 engine at its heart.
The 'RSR' as it is named also has a customised body kit which pays particular attention to the beading around the doors and bumpers creating a fully-blacked-out design the owner was going for.
The build also included an air suspension kit that allows the car to sit really low for show purposes. Check out the video and let us know in the comments what you think of this Tiguan build...

The 5cylinder browl followed by the turbo flutter sound is absolutely brilliant

[@SkidMarksZA]

This year they built a twin for the Tiguan. RS3 in a T Roc. Bodyline are amazing 👏

[@alistairnaidoo9380]

A bit derivative, innit ? Only an B58 engine swapped Corolla cross would impress me after seeing this beast, lol.

[@tebohoisaac2930]

Truelly amazing 🔥🔥🔥👌This Tiguan is one of a kind. And shout out to Bodyline for this master piece work. That's one of rare greatest swaps in Mzansi done on a newly bought vehicle. Only saw the short video of the T Roc once on youtube and could not see it again 😢. Please share link if you have it Bro 🙏

loving this new campfest content,with Emotion and Escobar

[@rayoflight39]

Campfest was kak and it is getting kakker

[@KaraboK9Ntswane]

True. It's turned into a bragging fest with the who have's and who have not's because of money. No longer inspiring stuff. That's why I left the vw car scene in SA. Now I just daily drive my mk5 R32 and keep to myself and, family and close friends. I'd rather have a chill out session on a saturday with my real passionate vw friend's fixing and helping each other with keeping our cars on the road as long as possible. No clout because of who has what@@rayoflight39

[@bigdawg1021]

That is a serious whip

[@hamzahballim5567]

The only thing I don't like is the sound system in the boot I would've upgraded the standard soundsystem and left the boot to make it even more of a sleeper But to each his own, absolutely love this build, but now it's time to take an 8R and put an RS3 engine in it
