That's weird. I bet your wheels/tires are pretty heavy. I can feel the difference when I have my brother and our hockey bags in the car, and that's gotta be less than 150 extra pounds. If AB bags you, taking all that **** out seems like it would make a difference. Although I just don't see it. Maybe the APR software+2.8trans+minor weight reduction is enough to take you.

Although you have roughly 1 and 3/4 times the power of my car, so your car must always feel fast.

 

Yea I'd hope I can take him, I know I am about even with my roomates which made 270awhp, and i still hafta turn up the boost timing and rev limiter. I thinkt he apr stage 3 makes 240awhp? although i may be wrong. I should be at least around the 300whp mark by that weekend

 

Haha guys, i tried to tell him 500pd weight makes a dif, but he doesnt seem to agree. Yeah, i think tom will take me, not sure by how much. Hes def down in the 12s, im prolly only low 13s now.

 

AHAHA i agree 500lbs makes adifference, I'm sure it would be noticable at the track, but I'm saying from the seat of mypants I cannot feel the difference when i have 3ppl and my tools (550lbs) in my car. I know there is a difference, I just cant feel it

 

i wish i was closer to u guys i want in on this race

 

There should be an Audiforums National Run-off event. There could be a 12V bracket (half the forum) then a chipped 1.8T bracket (40%) and an "everyone else" bracket.

 

im down for that, i think that greg would beat all of us but his car is too far away to race

 

he has a built GT2871, right? Or is it even bigger?

Whatever.

 

Except most of the 1.8T group would not even bother because 90% of us are only chipped.

 

he has...
GT3071R-WG (4" inlet), ATP manifold, 3" full turbo back exhaust, 580cc injectors, SPEC Stage 3 Clutch, Pauter Rods, JE Pistons, additional Bosch In-Line Fuel Pump, FMIC Evolution Motorsport, B&M Short Shifter...
