RE: has any body smoked a 90's 5.0 mustang with a 1.8t what setup?
I have a question. Not to change the subject off mustangs but.....
My friend has an '01 A4 2.8L and I have and '05 1.8t(both 100% stock). (Didn't the HP of the '05 get increased since the '01 model?)Anyways, he says he'll "smoke me" if we race.I realise that he'll probably win becuase he has a bigger engine, but would he actually "smoke me" or would i be able to hang with him??

I figured that might be the case. Even before I converted my Z to twin turbo, with basic bolt-ons (intake, exhaust, underdrive pulley, ECU, and big tires) I would pull them from that speed. On the highway it was not even close.

i would say it will be extremely close. the 1.8t is only a merely 32lbs heavier than the 2.8. and the 2.8 has a bit more power also. the 1.8t will have a slightly better top end(80mph+).. all in all, the 2.8 will probably be slightly ahead..
but, there is only one way to find out man [sm=gears.gif]

he's talking about a T3 flanged GT3076r w/ a .63 A/R. it should spool up very nicely and give him 400Awhp if done right
