    Default 1.8t vs. RSX vs. 350 vs. S4

    1.8t(ME) vs. RSX(JULIO?)vs. 350(SPEEDMONKEY) vs. S4(???)

    1.8t w/ bolt on's GIAC // RSX w/ boltons Hondata // 350 w/ I/E // S4 (i think just boost controller(15lbs) and intake/exhaust - i dunno)

    1.8t vs. RSX: 50mph up... RSX pull couple cars
    1.8t vs. 350: 50mph up... 1.8t pull couple cars
    1.8t vs. RSX vs. 350: 70mph up... 1.8t got pulled on by a few cars
    1.8t. vs. S4 (older but awd/turbo)... i pulled hard but just depends on the launch seemed i pulled the most when we ran 80mph up weird

    TIME FOR BIGGER TURBO NICE RUNS GUYS HAD A GOOD TIME GOT TO PUT SOME NAMES TO FACES AND MEET SOME DUB GUYS.

    damn for some reason I always thought S4s were in the same category as Ferraris when it came to acceleration... Paul what'd you run at the track?

    shit was awesome tonight. great solid no BS runs. it was a pleasure taking you from 70 roll and losing to you on a 50 roll. hope to see ya out messin around again.

    Paul told people that he beat me by like 10+ cars.. so i got pissed off and challenged him to a break dance fight. it was great.. we had everybody crowd up together.. and Paul's amazing rythm, agility, and style Pwned me.

    How is that weird? He's heavier and has less mods. The higher speed you start ,the more advantage you have.

    He would be faster at lower speeds because of the awd.

    these are hwy runs... the awd means nothing at their starting speeds. paul's car isn't spinning tires @40mph+ .

    a 2.8liter v6 twin turbo VS. a 1.8liter 4 banger. even w/ mods an s4 still has a power advantage... over a mild 1.8t. thats a good kill

    how did the srt/wrx run go?

    felipe won the 1st run by a bit, 2nd run SRT4 won, felipe's attempt to brake boost failed horribly and he fucked it up, 3rd run seemed like a neck to neck run to me, after 100mph the WRX definately had the upper hand it looked like

    i have that run on video, ill ask KartboyWRX (felipe) for the footage tonight. and hopefully have it posted by the end of today.

    not yet i need to do the race n75; from what i read it will allow you to hold another lbs of boost; i was thinking of uping to the better Bosch FPR... do you know anything about that?

    yea the n75 keeps making boost over 5,500 rpm and holds strong till 7k... i have never delt w/ a 4bar FPR. i have a friend who had on and had nothing but problems, i know alot of the guys swear by them ... but with all vw's it seems like it is hit or miss, just depends on your ride
