Default Really a buick...lol!!!!

Well pretty cool race today folks....making a regular run to the pet store to grab a few items for the new pup....on the highway I notice a nice 2013 Audi S5.....very nice white with gunmetal wheels.....I know it was a 2013 or newer cuz I owned a 2008 S5 and 2013 was the year they changed them over and went from the 4.2 V8 to a supercharged V6...either way...we were messing around a bit on the highway...my wife was with me....he was alone....so when we had an open stretch with no cars....he hit and got the jump on me....I instantly downshifted and floored it...one cool thing alot of people dont know about these new Regal GS's is they have a no lift feature where you can keep the gas floored while switching gears to help stay in boost....i started pulling on him pretty quickly and pulled him by a car.....not sure what his mods were...he could of been completely stock...but either way he gave me a thumbs up....it was a nice race....My car has the Trifecta tune...bone stock everywhere else...thanks for reading....

2013 Regal GS 6spd - TRIFECTA TUNE
2013+ Audi S5 - mods unknown....

What bell housing do these motors have. I wonder how they respond to more boost. I could see these being used for Fiero swaps, possibly.

Good question....I tried looking that info up...if Im not mistaking the transmission is a F40 cant find info on the bellhousing....although jus a lil 2.0 I think alot of guys really dont understand the potential of these little engines...they are solid and can make some great power...in the Regal GS platform they def arent meant for the drag strip...but on the highway....its pretty crazy what they can do....especially with a tune....hopefully someone can chime in and help with your question....

Yea I dont think he thought I was gonna reel him in and pull on him at all lol....I dont blame him though...I had a 2008 S5 V8 4.2 and I would have laughed at a Regal trying to run me lol....the 6spd S5's have some GRUNT!!!
