Default 04 A4 1.8t vs. 98 saab 2.3t

04 Audi A4 1.8t 6speed
-APR stage 1
98 Saab 9000cse 2.3t 5speed
-20psi
-3in turbo back
-intake

I was racing a friend of mine and i knew i was probably going to lose. Started from a 10-15mph roll, I had him by about a car and half till he got traction then he flew by me and kept pulling. We shut down about 80 and he had 3 cars on me. I think if he was still stock and running 15psi I might have been able to keep up.

Thats it. basically raced my buddys saab and lost. Thanks for reading.

Thanks..yea his car is pretty fast. I raced him when we were both stock and he beat me by a few cars. Right when I got my ecu flashed he got his exhaust and mbc-->20psi. I'll probably never be able to keep up, butits cool just racing for fun.

Those Saabs run quite well. With a nordic tuning, or Maptun stg3 or less, exhaust, and fmic.... Those things are just stupid on the highway.
I have seen one with a Holset HX40, Maptun stg5, cams, and the goods. It pulled low 11s at Norwalk, and it street driven.
