Default Which is faster?

Stock GS400 or Stage 3 1.8T Quattro (PES or APR) with exhaust.

Let's say 0-60

Default Big turbo A4 is faster with someone who knows how to row the gears properly.

Until gearing takes over on the highway that is.

Default walked a GS400 with wheels and what appeared to be an exhaust on it.

From 45-about 80.

They are quick boats, though.

Cheers,
Sameer

Default yeah, very true

I never seem to do this when I race my friend's Acura TL type S with headers and intake. I raced him last week and he pulled away at first and then I caught up. Then I relaized I was in 3rd gear and we started from like 40 mph.

Stage 3 A4 is going to be a good deal faster.
