Same thing happened with me and a friend's C63, I got like 2-3 car lenghts advantage and then he started catching up, the all wheel drive is a huge advantage in a dead start, also we did it in a roll and I also won that one, why? the C63 has a little hesitation when you push the pedal, after that just like your caddy, they are rockets.
Did you actually notice a lot of difference between the stage 1 and the stage 2? or you went directly to stage 2?
I went straight to stage 2
I hope make it to the track tues night for some 1/4 mile times

Nice, did you change the exhaust and intake as well?

Ok, that is a RAM not a CAI, regardless lets compare our dynos later, to compare the real gains of a stage 2 GIAC with exhaust and intake vs APR stage 2 with intake, both tunes will be similar so we can see exactly how much the exhaust helps besides the amazing sound.

Well I just installed my stage 2 car and the car FLIES, it is really fast, the supercharger whines and the car goes like hell.
I am done with performance modifications (for now )
I will Dyno the car soon and post the real gains of a stage 2 with intake and exhaust.

It looks like you guys are having a great fun...
I'm still debating whether to start mods on Engine or not.
This is my first Audi and I have no experience how it'll degrade the life expectancy of the engine.
How safe is to go with APR's stage 2 mod? Any side effect like low MPG, vibration or noise???

These engines are German quality, built to last forever, even with no modifications at all some components could fail but it is not related, tuners spend countless hours developing their products, it is very simple do you want an Audi A7 that performs as a S7 (or maybe even better) or an A7 that performs as an A7.
Mine is not APR, it is GIAC, but I do not expect APR to cause vibration, noise or worse consumption, the only worse consumption will be because you will be flooring the car more often.
Watch the S4 vs RS4 video in YouTube, the one with Chris Harris, this engine in particular is one of the best for tuning ever built.
