A Bit of bench racing for comparison sake
Hi.
I am considering purchasing a used 225 6 speed TT Coupe. The car already has a FMIC, catback (maybe turboback not sure), some kind of intake (Carbon fibre tube without any writing on it), Dahlback intake manifold, and (I assume) a chip. It also has full coilovers installed.
I am considering either that car or a 2001.5 6 speed S4..
Could anyone tell me, hopefully from their own experience, how fast should a TT be in that stage? I am looking for quartermile figures assuming a good launch/driver etc.
thank you all
tom

Re: Sounds like a forum car. Intake could be a TTDA fromt he Modshack.
woah hot car there TT_Nudge!
I actually got to test drive the car.. but it wasnt all that exciting in traffic. Worse, I then got a ride in my friends S4 on some back roads and well, it was very very impressive.. I'm just afraid the TT wont stack up compare to the S4 awesome acceleration and awd fun..
just looking for some e-assurance here, heh.

Thanks Man!!!
I've looked at that same vintage of S4 as well. Totally different beasts, but if you need a sedan then it's a great choice. But if I was looking at a fun car and didn't need the room then I'd definitely get the TT. With decent mods the TT can hold it's own and it sounds like the car you're looking at has a good jump on things.

if its the one that someone posted a week ago on a lot in brooklyn i think...i know who it belonged
to...someone that lived about a mile from me.
and also, if its a lake silver.
just about everything on it that's on my TT. if it has the KW v.3, he put his stock fat fives back on...since i think he sold the BBS CHs that were on there. he took great care of his TT...not abused...and not that much mileage on it as well. i believe it was a 2002.

what do you want to know about it?
it was serviced by KMD. you can ask Danny about the car...or myself if you'd like.
non-smoker. also, i put the ice-link dock in his car like i did mine. it was always garaged.
was broken into once...driver's side i think. was sitting at the dealer lot (fenced in) and was broken into by the door handle/key area.

It will be faster than a stock S4. It will outhandle modded S4.
Should run mid 13 in the 1/4.
Modded S4s are very fast off the line, but thouse K03s burn out rather quickly. If you're goint to get a used S4 or a modded one, be prepaired to change the turbos. Not that it happens to every car, but better have the money saved up in case it does.
