You never know, they might mistake the brake pedal for the gas pedal.

tbh i dont think it will be that much, maybe 2 cars?. according to the 1/4 thread, an APR S2 R traps about 3-5mph more than a UNI S2 GTI so i would imagine it would be similar to stock GTI vs stock R

It won't be as big of a gap an stock GTI vs stock R, theres a ~70whp difference between those cars. The stage 2 R is probably making around 50 more whp than his stage 2 GTI, but the R is heavier. If I were OP I'd be doing some weight reduction right now.

You're talking about the car, right?

The dig and 30kph pull is obvious. 50kph pull the difference is not a huge amount.

Golf R didn't make it out.

Started another thread with the runs that went down

Just for reference I ran a APR stage 1 R at the track in my APR Stage 1 gti. He trapped 112mph, and I trapped 109.89. So even from a roll the R pulls harder up top.

The cars in question being APR vs Uni (mildest of the flash tunes) it'll probably be ugly without stacking Jb4 and some corn whiskey as mentioned above

I trapped 112, so it would have been a great race if he was still S1.

Considering he's now S2 i expect to lose by a few cars. I won't be back in his neck of the woods until next year though.

As for stacking, E85, or meth injection, this car is a daily driver. I will never do any of those things.

If anything i'll eventually go IS38, reflash it and leave it on pump gas. No meth, no blends, no piggybacks.
