It all ends up being mostly bragging rights in the end.
How many of us can handle 500...600hp safely?
I'll be the first to admit it scares me.

About the 20B specifically...
The added torque is a plus.
The 13B out of boost doesn't have the torque that the extra rotor provides.
I'm not talking about all-out race conditions, but daily driving just putting around on the street...
It's nice to not have to downshift all the time.

Enter the sequential twin turbo lets put it this way.... when my tranny got jammed between 5th and 6th I got stuck at a light.... the tools behind me (in a boosted jetta) was being a total ass. When the light turned green and I managed to get through the left hand turn onto a 2 lane rd he tried to pass me.... idle in 5th is about 15mph... I stomped on it and he couldn't get around me... from idle. His rear got to about my front bumper before I got into decent power but still, he couldn't get around me in 5th from idle.. is what he got when I pulled away from him

That being said, I also agree regarding anything above that being just to show off... Hence why I'm building a 20B.. But mainly for 'show' purpose (hopefully 600RWHP). But I know, its not going to be fun except going straight line.

Traction control!!!! Hopefully this will be dialed in for Deals, you've gotta drive her Phil... it'll be like a reunion.... your ass in your old seats
