whats up everyone, just have 1 important question for u Ls1 owners. my buddy has a 99 a4 ws6 wit a catback borla exhaust with a borla y pipe, and a k&n filtercharger, other than that its all stock, some guy we know is sayin his stock 02 ss m6 wit just a tornado air?? will beat him without a problem. so as u all can see my question is: what car will win? the guy with the ss says he runs consistant 13.20's on street tires, and im sure my buddy is somewhere in the 13's any imput would be appreciated thanks

The WS6 will work him in the 1/4 mile

It'd be close if the guy in the ss can drive, but more than likely your buddy would win.

For future reference, the Tornado is a complete joke.

The WS6 will win.

If they where both stock , I would have to say the SS . But Given the WS6 has borla and a few other minor's , Im also going with the WS6 .

Tornado

The WS6 should win

Haven't you read the box, it's worth 30hp.


A race would be close but the WS6 definately has the advantage.

danno02SS

It's a driver's race. Eventhough the ws6 has a borla catback and y-pipe, the 01-02s came with the LS6 intake so that eats up some of the ws6s advantage. Throw into account the SS is a manual and both cars should be putting down about the same rwhp/rwtq. It will come down to who gets a better launch.

Here's the story in reverse (my 02 A4 SS vs. an 00 M6 WS6):
SS had SLP LID/K&N,!spare,!jack
stockish WS6 exact mods unknown
_____02 A4 SS________00 M6 WS6
R/T___0.616__________0.336

He redlighted and got a 3/4 car jump. I made up 1/2 a car up to the 1/8. After that he stopped my pull and finished a 1/4 car ahead.

Stock for stock ... and A4 will usually beat the M6 in the 1/4 mile.

The exhaust work done to the WS6 will make up for the lack of the LS6 intake that the SS has. Plus, that SS has this piece of sheet metal stuck in his air intake blocking airflow. Tell your bud to trash the tornado .... it's slowing him down.

My money is on the WS6.

Buffdaddy

Probably the ws6.

Greed4Speed

It all depends. If you race from a roll...the M6 all the way. Not many A4's have pulled me from a roll. When they do they're modded beyond the catback stage and air lid.

From a stop, it would be close. While A4's (w/a stock converter) usually take me off line, I'll pull them by at least a car length by the end of the track. It depends totally on how well that guy can shift. That Tornado probably will slow him down a bit though and a K&N is NOT a performance mod.

Best bet and only true way to settle this. Run them and see. Everything else is just speculation.

Sounds like this will be a drivers race. The few mods the WS6 has should even out the lack of LS6 intake and extra hp loss in the drivetrain. Since computers are expert shifters I'd put my money on the WS6 in a 1/4 mile run. I just wouldn't put a lot of money on it

Tell your friend with the WS6 to get that car a nice 3500 stall TC, tranny cooler and drag radials. That's the ultimate M6 equalizer and will make this race a lot less interesting (for the SS anyway). But it should be very close right now if neither blow the launch really bad. Should be a good run so post results if they ever run em.

WhoBetter?

people think they're real hot shots with their manuals but the fact is you can't beat an auto, that bad boy will already be going 90 and in thrid before the ss driver could even count to 3 let alone manualy shift to it.
