Default rsx-s turbo stage 1 vs 2001 s4 w/apr

hi all. well..the race happened last night. my buddy in his b5 s4 w/apr, suspension, new rubber, and upgraded clutch/flywheel. i drive the rsx-s w/stage 1 turbo, es motor mounts, full exhaust w/no cat, everything else is stock (301 whp dynod at 9psi, i can boost up to 13 on stock internals but don't want to risk it).

From a stop thru 1st gear he had my by about a carlength, he instantly jumped while my stock rubber just sat there and spun. second gear came really fast and the car is still spinning (i need lsd and new rubber badly) and I see about another car length go by, we're going about 45 now..As soon as the traction came It was pretty much me walking him. By 85 I was about 3 cars ahead of him and I let off the gas there.

We did it again from a 30 and a 60 roll, there was no contest there. I beat him consistenly. He says it's upgraded turbo time for him...Needless to say, he'll kill me then. Time to bring out the old '69 stang..

OK, our S4s, when chipped really take advantage of octane.

no offense to anyone here, i loved that s4, but it was basically a very fast piece of ****. it had countless little problems that just got annoying after a while. I also needed a better car so i went with this:
