my friend wants to race me, he has a jetta vr6 what he lacks in horsepower the car makes up for in torque. Do you think I could take him?? I only have an intake installed in my car.. But could I be able to beat him.. He says it would be close and that what I think too

I have a stock 2000 CSVT and went up against a newer Jetta VR6 stick last year and it was a dead heat. It will be a drivers race I think. Good luck, though!

Don't know about the heavier? newer models, but I beat my friend's 98 GTi with the VR6 once and stayed even with him twice after that. The Jettas are heavier so I would give it to the SVT.

A former buddy of mine got smoked by one in his GTP from a stop, but I don't know what the VR6 had done to it...
