Id like to see a race between my car when its chipped vs a 2.8 with cai, chip, exhaust and tip chip. I bet it would be close , depending on the other driver.
I take it you car is a tiptronic?

Im still on the fence about that and a n75. Im worried about the 2 and the issues that may arise. Although I do have a warranty I still dont want my car in for service.

Well ive had my n75 for almost a month now and havent had any problems other than limp mode a couple times during the first couple days.. I am a little on the fence as far as the tip chip goes too.. I have read that some people have had it for 10k miles + with no problems.. but id just like to be able to test it out before buying it. No one i talk to about it who has it is really that enthusiastic about it so i dunno. Like i said in another thread, i have noticed that people who have 99 and 2000 models have the least if any problems with the n75. I guess it also depends on wether its a J or H or whatever too. I dont even know what one i have, its from ecs though.

Id like to race a chipped 1.8t just to see how fast they really are. I think a chip for a 1.8t is a night and day differance because the 1.8t are freakin slow to begin with.
You would most likely lose... I have raced a 2.8 before.. KILLED him off the line and was consistantly 1 or 2 cars ahead of him.. And i was in an automatic and his was 5spd. This was in Dublin Ohio about a month ago.. He was a yellow 30v.. If you are in here, yellow 30v, speak up!!!

This was up to about 80mph.
The only way to kill somebody off the line in an tiptronic audi is if the other guy couldn't drive for ****.

I know that a chipped 1.8t is faster than a 2.8l but a tiptronic with out a tip chip vs a 5 spd I don't think so. A tiptronic 1.8t is very slow, add a chip and its faster with still very slow shifts.
