If I even bother (ussually I don't - but sometimes I just can't help myself...besides I like "zoom-zoom"...lol) I will let them go 1-2 car lengths at fullthrottle while I sit and wait - then with a flick of my foot and a quick shift - I shoot past them as if they were unmoving...(of course I can do this with all manner of supposedly "fast" cars and such- like Acura TLs, Infinity G35s, INfinty FX45s, Nissan Maxima's and Altima's. Mustangs and Camaros etc etc...OK maybe only a 1 car lead...)

    Are you saying you can beat mustangs and camaros off the light?

    what kind of car do you drive again?

        Harut its an S4 2.7 liter 6 cyl Bi-Turbo (wagon) - with intake, exhaust, ECU chip (& a few other) mods...I run 330hp with 370lbs of torque - w/6 speed & AWD...zoom zoom!...plenty of go - trust me...I also take BMW M3/5s, Subaru Stis, Mitsu EVOs (these are all very close though) - and basically you name it...pretty much...so far I've only ever been outpowered (ever) by one Z06 Corvette...not that there aren't faster cars out there certainly (and I know it)...but not many...my little wagon moves out - under 5 sec 0-60...quarters in the low 13s (maybe better)...when I punch it I literraly can swing around most Mustangs, Camaros, G35s, Acura TLs, Honda S2000s...and so on and so forth pretty much like they are standing still....unless its a Cobra or such (never yet run with one - though I have a standing offer from a friend of my neighbors - we just haven't done it yet - I think he'd likely beat me in the quarter...but it would be a good run...heh I even run with some bikes - had one guy on a speed bike take his helmet off at a light the other day and ask just what was I driving - and told me no car had ever made him work so hard...he had beat me pretty good - but after his initial jump [perhaps 8-10 car lengths] I pushed him pretty hard and he couldn't pull away and I closed the gap - well up into triple digits... )...additionaly I'm lowered with custom suspension and run with 19" 235/35 Yoko AVS sports so can out power almost anything around the corners....its a real nifty package I must say - and quite a looker - I have the limited edtion Nagoro Blue package - sharp...as I said I'll post some pics once I take some with the new wheels....its a fun little package...very quick...particulalry with me driving it...

          no I see no sarcasm...just an untrue statement - all around - and that you claim such illustrates your ignorance in these matters...

            ok man, if that will make you stop repeating the same thing.. then im ignorent...

            btw/// ho do u know your power ratings..? how did you dino it?... that sounds like too much torque for the mods and size engine.. the bhp is not an issue, but your torque is too much... i would love to see the dyno outcome of that...
            How do you hurt a masochist?

              Its based on nearly identical mods that others have made on the same car - so no - not out of line at all. If you are familiar how the ECU chip upgrade changes how the turbos fire - the additional fuel & air pumped in - while spooling up quicker and for a longer period - you wouldn't be so surprised. The S4 is already a torque monster - and the upgrades make it a beast. You wouldn't believe the push you get with just a flick of the gas pedal. Check out some Audi web sites and forums if you don't believe me. And I have only about a stage 1.5 upgrade. There are folks with stage 3/4 mods (with upgraded turbos & bigger downpipes) that are putting out 100hp & 100lb/ft more of torque with the very same engine I have!....(are you familiar with the RS4 sold only in Europe?- Check it out...basically my car taken to the extreme....). I have a video of a stage 3 modded S4 absolutly trashing a Z06 corvette on 2 different drag runs...a thing of beauty I tell ya...

              I am planning to dyno it this fall BTW...I had scheduled a dyno a few months back but I had a slight compresion leak in my throttle body boot that I needed to fix....fixed now...next up is another software flash upgrade which is available for my chip...then the dyno...

                I haev seen a focus whipp some creme on a viper.. lol.. honestly i have a video of it .. but that doesnt mean anything.. u dont compare the two vehicles.. i am not sure of the specs on that focus, but NOS for sure, and probably pushing 18 punds, a few runs and that engine will blow..

                Winoman, have you changed or modififed your stock fule flow? if so what pressure are u running it under..? btw.. i beleive that your engine is capable of outputting that power, but i am skeptical as to the exact numbers.. we shouldnt go far, when the supras were real sports cars, around 83and i think best one was around 84 or 86 model years.. the stock performance before any mods or turbos was nearing 340 bhp.. with a few simple mods that vehicel was too much engine for itself.. lol.
                Anywho.. i have always been a BM fan over Mercedes.. and in reality they are better sprots cars than most others in its class.. I think we started off on the wrong hand on this topic.. haha

                  S4 that beat the Z06 wasn't running NOS. But yeah - I've seen Jettas that do 11s in the quarter - so anything is possible.

                  My chip upgrade mods the fuel flow and fuel - air mix - I don't know what the numbers are...the result is just beastly and great fun to drive...car is somewhat stealthy being a wagon - but folks notice the big wheels - huge (ricers would be proud!) exhaust and the color is pretty striking - still as a wagon many just haven't a clue...and I love to drive (very) fast...

                  Yeah early 90s Supra (92 to 94 I think) - super fast and very moddable cars - these were really the best Supras - but the wanted in the 40s for them.... Fasting car I've ever driven (friend of mines) was a moded (automatic) Supra that had substanscial turbo, intake and exhaust upgrades - as well as a chip of course - and it was pushing around 500hp...stuck to the road like glue too...great car. I also do own a supercharged MR2 which is like a go cart on steriods. Handles great - with its md engine and low center of gravity - and with the Supercharger it flies off the line and can keep with most anything (to a point)...it accelerates well into the triple digits - but not generally fast enough to keep up with the big boys into those speeds. Still I've had great fun in the car - once put 5K on it in 2 weeks driving out west....great trip...

                  Yeah BMW is nice...Mercedes is for old farts...thoguh they are getting better - still - for any normal kind of money...only the priceir models are really special IMO - and they still are mostly all automatics - which just ruins it for me.

                    Ok - lets see if this works - pics of my two German sweethearts...note - the Audi is with my old (now track) wheels (OZ Superleggaras) - and I'm running 19" Audi RS4 wheels as my summer streets and 17" Audi A4 sport wheels for winter...
