Pulled up to light saw a Type-S to my left I had to give it a shot. Looked a driver 3.2 Type-S gave the http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif he replied http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif light changed. Launced a clear car length. Got up to 55 mph. Stoped at next light. Gave the peace sign for want to try again a second time? He rolled down his window and asked me what's under the hood? I could not help but smile & chuckle cause my car is debaged and clean as sh*t.
I am sure he did not know what the heck I was driving. Well, I confessed VR6 With Chip. He said Ohhhhh, Oh I had a VR6 too, he replied. He said this car has 260HP, I said that nice. Now lets try this agian. Well, he tried again. I out launched him then he tore by me. It would have been interesting if I was in the car a lone. I had three peole in the car. No the GTi is not going to tear by a 3.2Type-S at 155MPH but it will beat the Typ-S off the line and through the next corner in the day to day driving. Bet, he will think twice the next time he pulls up along anothe debaged VW. VR6 Rules

I would imagine a similar result against a 2002 Maxima 3.5 a/t, yet I would imagine the 6-speed Max with (LSD) will bar the upper hand off the line.

With 2.5 full cat SS exhaust you have a good chance of getting out and staying there. This is my 2nd vr6 they all sufffer from a stiffled exhaust. I plan on the Autotech again. Unbelievable HP gains car just wants to run when you let is breath.
Good luck. from a Roll you will beat him. from a stop. RSx has edge. Comes down to driver. VR6 is cabable of 14.8 with exhaust mod. But pulling at speed. 2.8 VR6 is superior http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif
