Dusted an Audi S4 today

Today I finally got a street kill :D it's been a long time and I was itching for one of these. Anyway, it was about 12:30 today - busiest time of day - and I was on Kiely right by the post office (downtown Santa Clara). As I pulled up to the light I ended up behind a bright yellow Audi S4 TT sedan. I was thinking to myself, "man, I wish this guy would race" but he had a lady passenger and it was the worst place and time to race. Anyway, the light turns green and he takes off pretty quick but I stayed right behind him. He let off at about 65 or so (35 zone :eek: ) and I snagged the right lane. Well, we caught the next red light and I was totally stoked 'cause I've been itching for an S4 for a long time. So I timed the light and started building boost not knowing whether or not this guy was going to run me or not. Well, the light goes green and we both launch hard with AWD! It was dead even when we launched and I left with about 5 or 6 psi of boost. Didn't take me long to start walking away but I could hear his turbo whistling and him revving the crap out of that little 2.7L motor. He stayed about a carlength behind until I shut it down around 65 mph. Then he blew by me like a sore loser, he he. BTW, I had my SMC alky spraying at pump speed 5 and turn-on point set at 10 psi. I'm using straight denatured alky with 30% distilled water and some Klotz lube mixed in. The stuff really helps reduce KR and it's MUCH cheaper than race gas. I'm using 91 octane :(

Eurpean Car Mag is doing an S-4 buildup. Nice results so far with just suspension and brake workup. I think modified (easily done) the s-4's could be a real threat.
