no... FSIs spike at around 20-22. TSIs do not peak as high.
you cannot say MKVs as a whole spike at either because... my MKV has the TSI while earlier MKVs had the FSI. Not saying you don't know this, but I think a lot of MKVI guys don't realize the later years of the MKV have the same TSI engine as the MKVI (aside from encryption shit that makes chipping more involved).

Actually it holds over 20psi until past 4,000RPM. Anyway, boost itself is not indicative of a cars power output. Things like timing and air/fuel also make a large difference.
There are a lot more things going on than, "omg I happen to have unitronic so its the best!!11"

Yes what matters is turbo efficiency...

If you notice in the post it says the APR car is running a mix of 104 and 93. Not exactly apples to apples comparison.
At any rate Codeb4u thanks for the data :thumbsup:

That's not always true. I raced a GTO from a dig with a 335xi and smoked him from a dig. When we raced again at 50 he beat me. So it's not always the case because if you have that much power on a front wheel drive car traction can become an issue. I'm assuming you're a good driver tho so ofcourse gti vs gti you would probably win.

Only thing i know is i'm never going back to stage 2 
I know stage 2 is fast but definitely doesn't feel THAT faster than stage 1, it may be fast as you can see on the video but you only realize you're going fast when you look at the speedometer and by the time that happens you're already doing 80 and it's time to hit the brakes.. the fun doesn't last that much. Stage 1? The perfect power rush with quick enough spooling times for a fun ride in everyday driving.

k04, quick spooling times, much more power, and fun for everyday driving. I haven't had any drivability issues since I've had it and it's really smooth.
I do agree about the stage 2 statement. My friends stage 1 felt just as fast as my stage 2, we never raced, but it's definitely not such a wow factor from stage 1 to 2 as I thought it would be.
Nice race OP!

Nice kill. Did you guys do more than one run? Get a chance to talk after? Just wondering if he was slow to react or not. Anyway, nice to see the difference between stg 1 and 2.
This...
and this. Would be cool to see the difference. Nice friendly run to satisfy everyone's curiosity.I'll race you for the people wanting an APR vs Unitronic race

That car in the video is yours? That would explain it, there's not THAT much of a difference in stage 1 vs 2, that race does look stage 2 vs stock.

30whp/wtq is definitely a huge difference...but its more of a 3 car length difference to 100mph rather than a 30 length
