It's one of those things you buy just for the engine sound alone.
I love 5-cylinders.
I prob would daily the shit out of a 2.5 jetta and slap an exhaust, sound like a ricer move but not sound like a lawnmower
I sometimes think about doing this with a JSW 2.5. Would be a good move and a great road trip car.

On the Tuesday night ride at COTA it was back to the usual setup (no races) which means when you take the turn 1 bypass, you cut through what is usually paddock. On display where some R8s and RS3s that they use for their Audi Driving Experience. I wonder how I can get one of those used...

So APR is about to release their tune...
That's on e85. Yes, that's a 180 WHP gain stage 1. 350 WHP stock, 530ish WHP after tune. Stock hardware. Shit is retarded. I don't think I'll be able to resist the temptation...

^ RS3/TTRS get DQ500 which is a beafier version of the stuff s3 and Gorf get(DQ250). I think it would be fine. Can't DD e85 regardless, Canada doesn't carry it.

Car gains 22 WHP with IE intake reportedly. Stock tune. If only it wasn't 1200USD :/ lots of power left in these 2.5s

Stupid factory. All they did is just completely neuter the car. If only the engineers ever looked at intakes, imagine the possibilities.
