If the C5 was not modded I would guess that you would have a good chance. With the 02' or 03' vette being modded (similiar to yours, exhaust) I would say it will be close or the vette.

if i were supposed to, then he had sum other stuff under the hood. i was ahead from start to about 40mph, then he started pulling ahead, not fast but he was passing me up. from what i saw compared to my car, i would assume he had atleast 10hp onme and plus i had a 215lb passanger, he also had a passenger but not 215. so im still assuming the weight/hp advantage. he had to have had more than what i stated b4

I raced a vette with an intake and catback exhaust (M6) when i was full bolt-on, took me till 90 mph before i could pull him and then after I got about one length we pretty much evened out... Those things got some pump on top end

he had to have had soemthing else...because A4 vettes had 2.73's form what i believe ive read...and no option of anything more...so this would mean your acceleration would be much quicker hense your 1st 2nd gear lead but your 3rd gear should have already been engaged while hes still rolling through 2nd...
his aerodynamics and weight may have played a trick or too but that doesnt make sense
i think somethings fishy especially with just an intake X pipe and catback
try to run em without a passenger, and remove your spare tireand jack then if you still loose somethings wrong

The A4 Vettes can come with either 2.73s or 3.15s. Mine has 3.15s in it.

My car is not a vette but when i race against m6's with the same mods they pull a half car maybe but when I hit 3rd i blow by them. I guess autos have good top end or something.

a4>=m6 off the line especially with a tc
well driven m6 is a dangerous thing, powershifting can make an stock SS run 12s and a stock zo6 run 11s

Well somehow mine is opposite. Sorry, maybe that the way it goes most of the time but not my car. With same more or more they get me off the line and through there 2nd but then I pull by them hard.
