How long does the drivetrain on a 4000lb+ car cutting 1.5s hold up? I realize you’re 1.8s now but you mentioned maybe getting another tire.

I know my friends rs7 broke a rear axle, and another friend had over 300 launches on his 2013 s6 with no issues

Do these have the launch counter like the S4’s had? Once you use launch control like 200 times it won’t let you use it anymore or something like that I recall…

Pretty solid daily driver for sure :tup:

figured i would just use this thread for any updates to the car

picked up a set of roc-euro intakes for the car.

i plan on comparing them against stock at the track and on the dyno to see if there are any gains.

fyi for anyone who hasn’t checked their air filters in awhile i would recommend you take a look. i’m pretty surprised the car ran as healthy as it did with the intake looking like this.

Ya, factory air ride that I lowered 17mm with vagcom

in the spring I’ll buy a suspension module that will allow me to have complete control over the ride height
