    After all this talk got me wondering, one of my Lightning friends called this morning and said several of them are headed up to Northstar tonight....pretty sure I'm going to join them and see what the pig will run now. I'll report back later.

    I hit 10 below where you hit. Schnitzel did not like, but the BOV and turbo spooling sounded amazing between the walls.

I took the curve R1psycho took tonight and once I hit 3 digits on the spedo I knew to let out. The car loves to dry going sideways on me, but luckily I know it well enough to stop it.

    *Disclaimer* I did this away from people in an empty space so my stupidity in turn would only cause me harm if it were to get out of control.

    Maybe you can find wheels I'll like and photoshop them on my car? I have 2 sets picked, but I'm open to options. I have a set now I like, but looking to go bigger.
    Go with some super aggressive Varrstoen's or Rotiforms.

    Rotiforms (a little too low and too much stretch, but you get the idea)

    The front grips great.

    2.0T is FWD too, No? I was thinking only the V6 models were available with AWD?...but I'm by no means knowledgeable on those cars.

    I was wanting to do a cam swap for an A4 onto mine, but I have been told absolutely not. I'm running an APR tune myself and I am pretty happy with it. APR/ECSTuning see a lot of my $. The car is very lightly modded. Next 3 things are the high pressure fuel pump, front/back adjustable sway bars and an oil catch can even though I replaced the valve.

    Dunno if I'd beat a new 5.0 though, haven't come across the opportunity.

    I swear when this car was stock and slow as shit with 2.73's, driving 600 miles every weekend, I had ppl messing with me all the time. Even got my ass handed to me by a MINI VAN! lol. Now that it's a toy and isn't stock anymore, I can't find anyone to play with!
    It's because there's no one else in Mesquite? Come over to FTW.

    Meh, I doubt it will be me...unless we were at the track, I've never street raced my 5.0 and really don't plan to. But it's just a slow daily driver anyway....Danny's car runs a lot better...I've seen him post some 7.90 slips. Mine's only gone an 8.20 back when it had something like 2400 miles on it. I've got 12K on it now, a catback exhaust, slightly lighter wheels, and much stickier rubber....but still probably only 8.1's - 8.0's at best.
    Mine's a stock daily as well.

    It might run a little better with miles..

    I wonder if the new 5.0 will run as strong as pushrod 302 with 203k miles? Ahaha.
    Strap 600 more pounds to your's, and you'd have an idea. I'm game if I ever get to Denton, or you ever come down here. I have no idea where the closest Mexico is though.
