WRX vs S4
A friend of mine owns a Audi S4 with a chip from APR. I own a 05 WRX bone stock, but my question is if I get an access port from cobb can I keep up with him possibly beat him. His claim is that he as done a 13.4 1/4 ; or will I need a stage II to keep up or beat him. I want to add that we are in Houston so we are at sea level....

I don't know of anyone that has droped 1 second in the 1/4 buy a chip reflash. The fastest mine went was a 13.4 and that was with Turbo XS stage 3 minus the I.C. with pullies, CAI, and Grounding wires. I would say you need to do some more work to get it that fast.

Funny that you say it is listed which is true but I have done some searches and people seem to be doing 13.9 with stage II. I have yet to find somebody who is doing a 13.4 with a stage II no extra bolt on just strictly the stage II setup. If I am wrong please let me know because before I dump my money I want to make sure that I am getting what they claim.

if you are talking quarter mile times then you will need to bring a stage two at least.
My friends chipped 2001 S4 with a cat back is a fricken monster, those chips make a car that runs 12psi stock top out at 19psi safely. His car is a little worse in 1st gear because the tranny in those things is real squishy and you can shift fast at all. But at second gear his car is a fricken monster, and after 100mph it comes alive again and pulls hard as hell to 160mph. So you are going to have to do quite a bit to make it as streight line fast. You might be able to eak bye a faster 1/4 pass but his car will be barreling down on you when you cross the line.
