Vs.

B6/7 S4/RS4

He’s very well liked on AR ;D

#22

The 2-3 was a bit hesitant…but the 1-2 was retarded.

I have about 5-6 of these pulls on video ;D

#23

Quit holding out on us!

#24

can’t. Privacy issues. Plus I think VAST would cry.

#25

If you listen you can hear the 3 to 4 and its even faster then the 1 to 2 shift.

I like the pause on the 2 to 3. knowing the RS4 its probably to save the syncros

#26

good point…

The 5-6 was awesome on the one pull. Not joking either.

#27

Yeah it feels really fuckin fast so I’m dying to see what the 2.5 is gonna do.

#28

exhaust is such the cornerstone of these motors

#29

I don’t think 2.25 to 2.5 is going to ‘feel’ like much…it will just work better. It’s a weird thing. There’s not some rush of power that you’ve magically unlocked…it just creates a better overall curve. Subtle but effective.

#30

@Likewater Going to a 2.5 should be more noticeable on a 60-120 pull than a 0-60 dig. Hopefully the 335 guy leaves the car as is so you/we can see the difference the new exhaust makes.

#31

That’s what I figured to be honest. At least I’ll know it’s as good as it can be for the time being.

#32

Cool. Yeah he’ll be leaving it as is since he’s moving to a B8 S4 in about 6 months. Then I’m really screwed…

#33

yup…you’ll need an RS4 with tune + full JHM exhaust.

or a JHM blower or nitrous kit.

#34

nah, headers, intake manifold and 2.5" cat-back will do you well.

or just a blower and 2.5" will leave him gasping for air lol

#35

unless the guy spends all his money on the B8…then he’ll be stock and your car will do just fine against him.

#36

Nope he never leaves his cars alone. It’s gonna be a beast. My plan for now is full 2.5, IM and JHM juice. I think with that, depending on what he does, I should be good to go.

#37

good stuff

the fastest pump gas B8 S4s get into the low 12s (12.2-12.3) so a JHM car on nitrous should get down there pretty comfortably. That’ll be cool to watch you two battle it out. Get some vids (in Mexico of course)

I disagree…

Anyway… This was posted yesterday… pretty impressive for tune only, if true… Not sure of the mods on the 335 or M3…

Wow, those B8s are surprisingly quick…

problem is I’ve raced both DSG and manual cars. You haven’t :smiley:

Serious…the manuals pull harder. The DSG cars shift better. The results get washed out with most drivers, but a good driver in a manual should be able to beat a DSG car (mod for mod) every time.

In any event…post that vid in the B8 S4 GIAC thread…this is the B6/7 S4/RS4 vs. thread lol
