So I recently went from stock to GIAC FXKO3 with genesis injectors and the other night coming home late an older passat vr6 (not sure exactly which generation but it was the one that was before like the 99' passats) pulled up next to me at a stoplight close to the freeway on ramp. I wasn't really looking at him, so there wasn't necessarily an mutual understanding that he wanted to race. The light turned and he took off as fast as he could (which wasn't incredibly fast) and when I saw that he was trying to race I went WOT as well. Since he got the jump he was a couple cars ahead of me and we slowed to another stoplight before the on-ramp. I saw that he had at very least an exhaust, but I didn't think much else was modded. The light went green and we both went. To be honest, I thought I'd beat him for sure. He was trying to pass me on the left as if he easily expected to fly by (probably used to killing A4's) but he was just creeping by. His car was pretty close in speed to mine (now I know that our cars are by no means fast), but it was still faster enough (ha faster enough) that it really made me wonder what he'd done to it. Are there common cheap modifications that people do to those VR6's that make them decently quick or what? Oh and one thing to keep in mind is that I had the stock DV in so I'm not 100% sure I wasn't losing boost.
