Default short vid for you guys

im really trying to do a full video but the damn car starts fishtailing so violently I cant say in it...and its a stock 01 C5 A4 with 8 psi of STS power. Cant imagine what you guys do with real power. Was hoping to dyno at Carlisle Corvettes today but it was way too hot. Turn up the volume.

full throttle from dead stop...car start fishtailing

Roll into throttle slowly...0-110mph...takes about 10 sec

Anyone show me what a fast car speedo does?

Every car should come with twin turbos...

ok I think its fixed now...let me know. Its real short...dont get big expectations. Car is a completely different animal at 8psi vs 5psi...wouldnt even spin the tires at 5 psi...it still scooted but not even in the same league as 8psi.

I also wanted to say of the thousands of Corvettes at Carlisle yesterday...more Maggies that any other forced induction...by a large margin.
