@AsianJedi she looks great! can you give a review of your lowering links? how does the car ride now, i suspect it does ride noticeably firmer now? also, in the picture above, are you in "Dynamic" mode? trying to get an idea how how much you have it lowered. most lowering links are adjustable between 10mm-70mm, so any input would be so helpful! i plan to do this next.
In the lowest setting Dynamic mode it is a bit rough but nothing like a traditional coil over setup.
in auto and comfort it rides smooth as butter.

And by the time I’m done with the car it will faster than any RS6.

I keep my fingers crossed for your next mods. But it won't be faster than the RS6, especially in the Performance version. You can change engine power and suspension settings, but you can't cheat physics.

It’s only a 200 lb difference I believe. If equally modded, I agree with you. My plans are to get it to 800 eventually. That should more than enough to get it beyond a stock or even stage 1 RS6.
And again….SUV>Station Wagon.

Besides, as I wrote, you can't cheat the laws of physics and SQ8 won't drive like RS6. Different weight, different suspension and different center of gravity.
The car's performance is not only about acceleration in a straight line.

You can make even 1000. This is not difficult when modifying electronics. The only question is how long the engine will last. RSQ8 engine, which has 600HP, has many other, reinforced elements compared to SQ8 500HP engine. Additionally SQ8 ZF transmission can transfer max 1000Nm.

That said Power Division chose a SQ8 not a RSQ8 for their world record car.
I get it that a straight line isn’t the end all be all. But it is fun. Besides I’ll start my wife’s RS5 build for the turns. 👍🏻

I hear you but the debate on here is rampant as to whether there really any true differences.
