Mr. Monger, I will take that bet! Your buddy must have been driving like a 450 lb woman in a leather recliner! I am chipped and push 16PSI. I have beaten so many "fast cars" that is just ain't right. I have yet to track the car, but I assume high 12's or very low 13's and that is not what the car is geared for. Find me on the freeway and take your chances.  BTW- was he tiptronic or 6spd manny?
Can't wait to see you! Hahaha!
Yeah. We'll bet a beer at the barbecue or something. You'll be buying the whole 6 pack.
I'll be laughing ALL the way over to the barbecue for that matter...
He has the 2001 6spd Audi S4 chipped, so-called 325HP or whatever it is, 16psi, catback exhaust, etc. Like I said, sounds the same as what you are talking about. He was by himself though I'll give it to him that he had a full tank of gas.
There is no way you'll hang if we can get to the top of second gear. I'm going to assume you'll launch better than he did and give you first gear.  Hahaha. Say hello again to the rear SVT bumper and ground effects. 
I have to admit though, I had the timing ramped the fug up when I had it on the 4 psi setting. I mean really high, tuned to the edge on 93 octane. Very fun for just four psi.
Remember, you have a 2.7L engine with twin KO3 turbo's. Those suckers barely wheeze out enough air to power a 2.0L normally. They are way at the top of their efficiency range on a 2.7L at 16psi. I looked into the borg warner turbos because my Volvo S40 comes with a single K04 on a 2.5L. The Audi R4 comes with the twin K04s and that is why it runs pretty good. Larger single turbos are generally more efficient and I actually get 4psi boost by 2500 rpm with this new piping system. I get 8psi by around 3400.
Man...it's ok. I've warned you! 
BTW, you did know that I was trapping 109mph in the quarter with the older pipes at between 7-8psi didn't you? And I have been tuning my own car now....

Oh yeah...I like Full Sail Pale Ale, or Bass Ale, or Newcastle Brown Ale, or Guiness. They're my favorites.
