An amazing feat though? I don't know about that one. LOL. The C6 Z06 is a $75,000, 500HP supercar, so I'd certainly hope it could beat a 3500+ pound S4 with bolt ons, especially upstairs. From a standing start on the street I think it could be a different story though.
Just a FYI, this S4 is far from heavily modded. It has OEM turbos and intercoolers from the Audi RS4. Bone stock motor with 141K on the odo. I have about $8000 into the car including the cost of the car itself.
Uhh, so you're saying with no front bumper and carbon fiber everywhere, it weighs 3500 pounds+? I think a guy who just learned stick on a Z06 deserves some applause for beating someone who has been racing for as long as you have. Granted the Z06 has amazing power, but putting that power to the ground is incredibly difficult, especially for the driver where each shift edges the car to go sideways.

Oh and saying you have OEM turbos from another car doesen't mean anything. I could do an engine swap with a Corvette and say I have a OEM LS7. Use some logic.

Haha yeah I know what he means when he says "stock" but just the way he acts like his car is actually stock because the parts he is using are all taken from other audis. If you show me an S4 that came stock from the factories with K04's from an RS6, then you can call it OEM. Like if he takes stock parts from other cars and make it weigh 5 pounds he can call it factory. Originally Posted by oldgixxer

Like I said, if I do a motor swap with a Skyline, I can't claim it was an OEM part for my car and then tell everyone mine is stock cause the motor is stock when it comes in a Skyline lol.

No sorry, its just not like that, especially since the turbos are Audi oem, off a B5 chassis (same as S4) RS4, off a 2.7t (same as an S4 except watered down). They're a more reliable replacement for the stock turbos.Originally Posted by AltySE-R

Putting the power down to the ground in a bone stock C6 Z06 from a 50 MPH roll is difficult? LOL, come on now. Now if you said a standing 1/4 mile race on the street I'd tend to agree with you, but racing from a roll doesn't take much. Anyone can make a car fast from a roll. Originally Posted by AltySE-R

It's pretty funny how you called my S4 "heavily modded" when in reality it has nothing more than 3-4 bolt ons. Bone stock motor, stock heads, stock cams, stock exhaust manifolds, stock displacement, stock compression ratio, stock engine management, etc.
If my S4 is "heavily modded" then what do you call an S4 with a 3.0L, GT28RS turbos, nitrous, etc?

marc,does the car bobby raced you in the other nite have the very same turbos that Audi bolted on when they built it&it left the factory with??
And why is it that your justify your response by stating "well your car costs $75,000-$110,000 and I have only $8,000 into my junker so I would hope it beats it "? Who cares how much it cost,it's irrelevant.
I could buy a 92 Fox body Mustang for $2500,put $8,000 into the engine and have a 9-10sec car too so whats the point?

The car he raced me in does not have the factory S4 turbos. The factory S4 turbos are K03's. The ones in the car in the vid are K04's.Originally Posted by oldgixxer

I've always said that if I wanted to run the streets I'd buy a Mustang and rip everything apart and still have money to burn. Obviously I value style, comfort, drivability, prestige, and performance...not just speed.

Can't wait for the rematch with you on race fuel! Hopefully I'm still stock by then...

My S4 is running the same bone stock motor that it came with from the factory. Stock compression ratio, stock displacement, stock number of power adders, no nitrous, etc. It's a bone stock motor with 3-4 bolt ons and that's it. That's why this car continually impresses me.

He didn't pass me until 135-140. That's incredible that I was able to hang for as long as I did considering the Z06 traps as high as 130 bone stock. I mean eventually the Z06 will pass me no matter what. Don't they go like 200 MPH? Gotta get something for your 80 grand. Originally Posted by ProjectC55

Pretty sick that I can be right next to a 125-130 trap car, even to speeds equal to or just slightly faster than the trap speed. Never in my wildest dreams did I think my 3500+ pound 4 door all wheel drive S4 with 3-4 bolts would hang with a C6 Z06 like that all the way on up to 135-140. Can you imagine a real race... standing 1/4 mile?

Im just breakin yer chops man,I could only imagine having 8 cars at my disposal&it's impressive that you know the Audi's inside&out and can swap around parts like that.I'd like to see that stable one day

no one missed that point marc. what everyone here is trying to tell you, and what you are failing to understand, is that even though they might be stock turbos on another audi, they are not the stock turbos that came on your car. unless your car specifically came off the factory line with those turbos installed, it is not stock. there is a reason people like youi change the factory k03 turbos to the k04 turbos, and i would be willing to bet large sums of oldgixxer's money that is isn't just because they are "more reliable"...Originally Posted by Marc
The point that you and everyone else here is missing is that they are OEM turbos that came stock on the same platform/chassis/body/engine as my S4.
and if you wouldn't mind, answer me this. what is the point of having 8 cars? and don't say "because i can", since you make is blatantly clear that money is an issue with you.
