Awesome build! Man that's surprising a stage 2 Golf R beats a downpipe B8 S4. I'd love to buy an S6 but I'm looking for a b8.5 S4 right now. Now I'm thinking about a Golf R again though.....

[@michaelcoyle1062]

Yea, my dual pulley b8.5 s4 couldn’t take the R. When I had no cats on it it was faster, but it was too loud for my taste. I put the JHM catted downpipes on it and slowed her down a bit. Once my buddy (known as the Gap Lord) lol, started getting good at brake boosting, the s4 couldn’t hang anymore. But it was OTS IE tune. I’m sure other tunes or even an E40 tune would smash him. The S4 is a better car than the R and more practical imho. Thanks for watching

@@mrd799 UNITRONIC STAGE 2+ : 665HP / 634LB-FT It was a massive gain. I also went ahead and swapped the driveshaft bearing and put in drivetrain inserts for peace of mind. Your car is already one of the fastest on the road. I'd say that if you ever have turbos fail, then go the rs7 route. I did mine because I was worried about the turbo screen. So I did the JHM screen relo kit, updated PCV and rs7 turbskis. It is an amazing car, but that final level was a lot of money so in hindsight, I'd only do it after a failed turbo.
