So I got together with my friend, and we compared cars and did a few runs. His 2011 Subaru WRX is the sedan, and stock. It pulled really hard, felt really fast from inside the car.
The runs were all close - my GTI is DSG, stage 1 APR and full Carbonio intake. His is stock.
From 30 or so, I was able to stay ahead of him and pull very slightly.
When above starting at 40mph, he would pull ahead a bit and gain very slowly, but I'd keep up with him and I got the impression that at higher speeds I would slowly close the gap.
Overall the cars were pretty close, considering his is stock and mine is stage 1. If I had stage 2 I think I could take him a bit easier, but if he gets a tune, then I don't have a chance.
If my GTI was stock, the WRX would walk all over it too. But stage 1 puts up a good fight and stays just below even.
