Bolt on tuned Porsche 997.2 turbo vs. turbo upgraded Audi RS7 vs. 1000 horsepower Mustang
Here is the Audi RS7 we all know and love in action once again. The RS7 features upgraded Garrett turbochargers and APR tuning to make them work. Horsepower is quoted in this video at 900 and we see numbers all over the place for the car but it is somewhere in the 7XX wheel horsepower range.
The first race has the RS7 go up against a bolt on tuned 997.2 Turbo. The Porsche is stated to have 600 horsepower so let's just assume it has an ECU tune and exhaust. The Porsche gets a huge jump but the RS7 is a second quicker through the 1/4 mile and traps 136.89 miles per hour compared to the 128.51 of the 911 Turbo. The RS7 is a much more powerful car and it shows.
The second race has Porsche 997.2 Turbo go up against a foxbody Mustang with a claimed 1000 horsepower. The Mustang definitely has a ton of power as the driver struggles to keep it going in a straight line. He really, really, struggles with the car going all over the place. The 911 Turbo remains composed and takes the race but this is essentially a botched run for the Mustang.
The final run features the 997.2 Turbo go up against... something. The video does not list what it is and it appears to be a Civic hatch although it could be a European hatchback of some kind. We do not know for sure and its result is not listed but what we do know is that it loses to the 997.2 Turbo but certainly looks quick. The 997.2 Turbo shows consistent performance running another 11.1 1/4 mile with a 128.2 trap speed.
It would have been interesting to see a clean run out of the Mustang and have it go up against the RS7 but you can't always get what you want.
