CT FB vs. Audi A4

This was my first ever race.
So two nights ago me and my homeboy are cruisin' back home down a nice wide 3 laner when this navy blue A4 flys by me in the left lane. Being the impulsive youngin' that i am, i return the favor and fly by him. Soon after we both hit a red light, side to side. I didn't get a good look at the car but it was definetly a 2000-2005 so i'm assuming it was the 1.8T. We exchange nods and I ready myself. Light goes green. I launched hard at around 4500 spinning tires and he gets about half a car length. I regain traction and slowly pull on him. We both back off at around 100 and by then I had him by about three car lengths.

The FB has: no name header-2.5in straight pipe-magnaflow
Mikuni 44PHH sidedraft with aftermarket manifold
Carter fuel pump to holley fpr
AC and all emissions removed
open diff
shitty miss matched tires

With you still being NA I doubt your top end would be greater than the Audis and im pretty sure the a4 is awd so if he had the driving skills of a toddler he should have murdered you off the line. Sorry dude im calling bs.

I'm know it was a b6 a4 but I'm not positive it was the turbo and/or awd. besides that the fb is so much lighter i don't see why not. But this IS the internet so i can't blame you for raising the bs flag lol

A Miata is light too but you don't see them winning any drag races. In corners it may be believable but when it comes to brute force it just doesn't add up.

even if it was turbo isn't that only 160 advertised hp? idk what they actually dyno at. And i'm guessing my fb has somewhere around 110hp (never dynoed) so thats max 50 hp difference with 1000 more pounds of car in the Audi. If you wanna keep going be my guest but i wouldn't waste my time typing up a thread to brag about something that never happened lol

I think its plausible! I absolutely roast my buddies B6 A4.


GSL-SE: 13B, weber 48IDA, full exhaust, and 4.88 gears.
Id pull on the A4 until my car tops right out.

This is definitely possible. I daily drive a B6 A4, with 160hp or whatever they come with stock and the hefty curb weight they are ridiculously slow. I have a bigger turbo on mine running 22lbs of boost (stage 3+ in audi lingo) and it is just fast enough to be a normal car. I doubt even with my setup it could click off a high 13 second 1/4 mile.
