Default Gift from the Audi gods......BAILEYS!!!!

They work. Very well. took about 25 minutes to put them in.....more or less a straightforward install, albeit i watched and handed the screwdriver over when requested =P

I noticed the difference immediately from a 4300rpm 1st to 2nd shift. Shift seemed smoother....but it might have been all in my head.....

I tooled around and was running up to higher RPM's and i really noticed the difference in shifts. It's like I never lost any boost....car just keeps going, whereas my with my stock ones on, i'd shift, gas......go...now its' shift, gasGO!

I wanted to make sure that there was a difference so i visited uncle frank and we drove around, swapped cars and drove some more.......they make a difference.


On a side note, i also got to an M3.......VERY fun car. It's like GONOW NOW NOW NOW NOW....not quite as quick as the S4 but very fast and fun. It needs some quattro action......we spun around a turn a liiiiiitle too hot =P

So anyways if you have the Baileys on order, they are worth waiting for. If you are skeptical like i was......see if you can't find some around you and try to test them out. I like em'~~!!!<p>..........why am i still awake?

Default yeah, but squealing tires and burnin' rubber is FUN!!

but showing off around an uphill decreasing-radius turn with the traction control off when you've become too used to Quattro can be bad for your health. =D

Default LOL!...

Umm... you're talking about an E36 M3, right? Remember... the *** dyno measures torque, not speed.<p>Justin
