RS5 is super slow - I don't understand it.

I was watching a few RS3's and all of the ones I saw running mid 10's and lower were running drag radials, pulling out seats and door panels, bigger turbos, downpipes and the whole deal.
Don't do it VT... putting that kind of HP into those small cars is just problems waiting to happen. Been down the road many times with some oddball toys.
My Evo (600 to the wheels on first tune before NOS) broke every time I drove it. One thing after another. Built in CA and shipped to New Jersey for tuning more than once.
Keep the V8 friend! It takes more than you think to pull a mid 10 or lower from an RS3 and it will drive horrible with a big turbo on it. My EVO was sooooo slow at low RPM..haha I could run faster
