I figured i'd post up seeing as though this section's a little dried up.

So i'm heading south on the highway, cruising at 83mph, I see HIDs coming up behind me kinda briskly. He gets beside me, makes a little move to the slower lanes and punches it.

I sit back just to see how hard his pull is, i'm a little impressed. So I give chase to about 115 and shadow him for at least 5 minutes speeding up and slowing down through midnight traffic.

I get beside him around 80, he downshifts (5mt) and goes, so I bury the throttle. We're neck and neck to 140mph, I ease off then he gets on his brakes. A little later down the road i'm in the far left lane then he gets on my ass, I give him three hazards then bury it again, I can't pull away, he can't pass, it's like we're anchored together, ~150mph I ease off, he passes and flashes his rear foglight. I head back to my home in Florida to research, thinking it's an A6 w/ a supercharger (he had pillar gauges, and S4 emblem which I thought he put on)...

About a week later i'm at the junkyard, I come out to throw a part on before going back inside, I see the same (A6), I do the walkaround to confirm. I'm determined to talk to the owner, can't find him so w/e.

30 minutes later i'm walking out and it's him pulling out of his spot, I give him the "one second" finger, he backs up, remembers me, pops his hood. The motor is no 2.8 V6 s/c, it's a factory INLINE 5 TURBO!! I'm speechless but he says it's on stock boost, 227hp stock, Quattro, 5 speed, intake, exhaust, and some other shit.

We decide to go again b/c he was surprised he couldn't pass the T5, so we went from 40, I honk three times, he puts it in 2nd, floors it. we're even to about 60 then I walk by half a car by 80, 90 then 100 i'm a car ahead. Slow down to 40 he says his car's too heavy and he wants to up the boost later. I give a thumbs up and pat my Volvito on the dash...

I thought he'd have me down low (quattro), and i'd pull up top (front wheel drive). Turned out to be vice versa but no pullage up top by either.

All runs were done in Mexico.

Nice job! Those 20vs are dangerous once you up the boost.
