My friend is gettin the Audi 1.8 TT and he swears he gonna smoke me. What you guys think? I think the car has around 240 HP, but thats probly not whp. Its AWD too so less whp. If he puts a chip in, I probly dont have a chance right?

 

with the mods in your sig....you should walk all over him.

 

i raced an audi tt when I was totally stock and i puller on him until 120ish then he pulled slowly past me (6th gear).

 

Im a big TT fan and with your mods unfortunatly for your buddy you will pull him fosho espically if its from a roll. Get some pics/vids up if you do race with him.

 

edit his sixth gear! i wish we had 6..lol

 

Those arent my mods. They're wat im plannin The underlined ones are what I already have, but nothin is installed yet cuz im waitin for the summer.

 

ooh ok lol. well you should still beat him.

 

Is there any way to get a sixth gear? Like people wit mustangs say they have new gears. Do they mean gear ratios?

 

LoL i didnt see that part either. Now if he had the bigger tt engine 2.0?? or something like that then he would have a bit more on you.

 

Quaife has something in the works for us, but its somewhere in the realm of "prohibitively expensive": https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/drivetrain-79/quaife-6-speed-conversion-fgp-f35-5-speed-manual-transmission-50610/

 

1.8T...its 185hp...only options are awd turbo,or front wheel turbo and 2.0l front wheel no turbo...ull rape him...i do the same with my friends..i play with him on the highway...those turbo inlets are about 1" big...really small turbo

 

Yea these Audi's are nice looking and have alot of features, but they dont have much power, you also have to keep in mind they weigh 3000+ pounds. Just like every other European car they are overpriced, heavy, and underpowered.

 

lol you all sleep on the audis....By far better built cars and our cars cant even compete to their style and tuning options...Neway a stock tt the 1.8T is 225hp to the crank and yes you will beat him from a dig or a roll either way ive walked all over my dads 2006 audi tt.....Now my moms a3 2.0 t gives me a little better run but i still walked it when i was stock....Audis gear ratios arent built like our cars they have a much smoother shifting platfrom where its actually comfortable to drive it instead of us like we feel like we are always racing

 

There were 2 versions of the TT, if it has 1 tailpipe it's low boost, has 180HP (crank) and runs 0-60 in 7.1 seconds...if its the dual exhaust it's the hi-boost model and it has 225HP and runs 0-60 in about 6.4 seconds...so a bit slower then a stock SS/SC.

You will win.

 

and how much do u think our ss cobalts weigh good sir? 2900 dry .... 3100-3200 wet, depending on how fat the driver is muaha hha!

 

Cobalt SS/SC Curb Weight : 2991lbs
Audi TT 180hp FWD : 3186lbs 225hp Quattro(AWD) : 3384

Cobalt SS/SC HP (Factory rated) : 205hp@5600rpm 200 ft-lbs@4400rpm
Audi TT HP (Factory rated) : 180hp@5500rpm 173 ft-lbs@1950-4700rpm or 225hp@5900rpm 207 ft-lbs@2200-5500.


What does all that mean? SS/SC FTW.

 

the cobalt is ACTUALLY about 2800 pounds. that 2991 is with gas and driver. their little estimate.

 

but you know what i put money on it that not one ss/sc can keep up with an audi tt in the twisties.....I love driving my dads tt gets looks like no other and it handles like a dream

 

Yeah it's called Quattro AWD. Very few cars (with all else being somewhat equal) on the planet will hang in the twisties with a Quattro. There is a reason why Audi/VW owned WRC before the WRX hit the scene.

 

lol its also called minimal body roll

 

As far as the weight: http://www.chevrolet.com/cobalt/specifications/
Chevy's website says the coupe weighs 2,681 pounds, I dont know if this is for the SS or the base model though. It should be noted the other places like Yahoo say it is 2,991 pounds. This is a big difference. Who is right and why is the rating so different?

 

I would like to try. Lemme get some springs and i'll chase an audi through any corner. I doubt i'll out-corner, but I'll keep up like a ************.

 

lol when you can take a turn thats rated for 35 mph and you take it up to 90 to 100 mph with no problem then come talk to me....they handle like a dream no bullshit

 

lol, polishpaul

 

Correct me if im wrong but arent there 3 types of TT's not 2, 1.8 = walk it, 2.0 = not sure but im sure we can take it, then the 3.2 or 3.5 = which not sure how fast it is but it might be able to beat us...so u gotta be careful when u pull up to one, but the new TTs are gunna be a bit faster they are boosting them all up so that even the lowest end should take us now...only one way to find out tho
