twisties.....don't try. But i think we might be able to take it if it were light to light. Also depends on how good the driver is because their manuals. This is with no mods. Add headers, CAI, etc., etc., we'd take it.

The 180hp FWD convertible TT's are pretty slow... 7+ sec to 60 for the manuals.

However, once chipped, the AWD TT's should have no problem hitting 60 in under 6 seconds.

single exhaust - 180

dual - 225

forgot to add - 225 is always quattro, 180 could be fwd or quattro

Sounds like you're acting like a little riceboy punk. The guy didn't want to race in the first place, so you slam on your brakes to catch the light. Of course the guy doesn't want to pull up next to you, so he stays back. He doesn't know what kind of wacko is in the car. So then you proceed to rev your engine because you are one cool dude. So then he proceeds to haul ass to get away from you, and your complaining that he didn't play fair? Quit acting like you are a 16yr old driving a civic with a tenzo R fart pipe.

you could be right...i was alittle excited cause i had just gotten my comp exhaust put on that day and my best friend was in the car for the first time with the exhaust...and the guy was like 60 but he was driving aggressive till i caught him...and he did waive after he beat me with a big shit eating grin...my friend thinks he knows him ,thinks he's a doctor ...my friends wife is a physicians asst. Anyway you could be right BUT ,i thought you could have been alittle cooler with someone that goes back to h-a..guess not.

i think we could beat any stock TT...that is if the owner isnt afraid to rev it and use his AWD traction..if he is he will launch hard on u and probably beat you to 60.

I agree, the 225 quattro's are pretty tough, my friend has a silver one and can pull 6 sec. flat with normal shifting (no double clutching or dropping the clutch). He is also buying a chip soon and said he can get over 350hp!
BTW, Achance needs to clam the --ck down!

tt roadsters are pretty quick, 1/4 mile in 14.6...when i was stock, i lost to my friend in his tt by 4-5 car lengths off the line...he had a REALLY good launch (and i had a bad one plus i forgot to turn off vsa)...btw, he left 4 nice tire marks approaching 3rd gear, i was only about 1-2 car lengths behind him...in other words, our cars suck donkey balls off the line (it's HEAVY and FWD), but once we get into the 60-100 range, that's what i'm talking about!!! plus with a better launch, intake, headers, tires, vsa off, i think i should be able to hang with him, or even beat him...that is if he doesn't chip his car beforehand now where is that supercharger.....

The way you told your story was that you were harrassing him into racing. I don't care if you were back from the days of H-A, there is no reason to be acting like that. Ever hear of Road Rage? It gets a lot of people killed. If you wanted to know what the times of the TT were, you just should of asked without the story.

I'd have to disagree. You're not going to beat a stock 225 coupe without mods if the driver is competant. If you've got mod and he's got mods, then it's just an all out war. :-)

The thing to remember is that at 225hp the stock motor is already working pretty hard. Chipping that motor beyond 10-20% pushes it really hard, unless they're doing other mods. Modding the CL just takes advantage of the room Honda left for ya to play with. And there's lotsa room there. ;-)
