Default I have a set of sports sitting in my office.... but they're black.

and it's a lease. too bad. but they suck too. Just buy some seats. My people have the brackets completely worked out. Once you have all the parts it's a 2-3 hour DIY.

Default Don't think. Buy the intake and DP.

not sure about the intake.. I've always kinda been on the fence about those things although it does allow for some cool noises to come from behind the fire wall. I did the chip and intake the same day so I don't know how much it helped BUT... the DP was a big change. noticeably more power, MUCH smoother delivery.

I highly recoment a DP. and get one with a 200-cell METAL cat. If you can afford it you want the HJS German made 200-cell race cat as in the NS unit. I paid considerably less than retail so it's hard to recomend a $1200 DP but it's a VERY nice part.

I'd be curious about the same results from a dead stop. How bad would the A3 fare?

Default My guess... a full car length behind at the end of a 1/4 mile but closing the gap..

assuming you can launch the car fairly efficiently. A really bad launch with tire spin through 1st and 2nd.. and you'd be toast by 3-4 at least.
