How would a stock SS TC hold up

So how would a stock SS TC hold up against a GTI VR6? I'm thinking its early 2000s, kid says it has exhaust, headers, cai, forged pistons, bored out and stage 2 clutch and flywheel.

Hmm yeah I just did some digging and found some numbers, but just was wondering with the mods he said it has. I probably should have researched before posting, d'uh me.

The only VW's id worry about are the one with turbo swaps. Short of that they arent very fast.

Even stock the R32 isn't much, except from a dig.

Yeah, you should be fine, even the new R32 is a touring car and you could handle it.

Hahah they're slow. I have a guy at work that swears he will rape me. He has an 03 gti with a chip intake and catback but everytime I ask him to run he makes up another excuse that he's getting something fixed lol

You will win....but his car will sound better. Those VR6s have probably one of the sexiest exhaust notes ever created.

Actually i heard the car and it didnt sound much different than a mazda mx3 with a fart can, and this town in swarmed with them i dont get whats so appealing about them, this one kid tried to do a ricer fly-by but i kinda blipped the throttle and prevented the fly-by...but im not planning on racing the VR6 was just wondering what would happen if i end up crossing that bridge. thanks dudes.
