You should find out if he is chipped. If so he gained around 50 hp and 60 TQ maybe more if he did a high flow down pipe too. Still chipped should be about even.

I used to run against a GTO 6.0 in my 2.0T TT (chipped and full TBE) and he would pull about a car length ahead of me, but when he shifted my DSG 7 AT would gain back 1/2 that length. He would pull a little shift, lose alittle. I could tell by his face he didnt like my 4 cyl keeping up with his big V8. So your AT should give you an advantage like stated earlier. I feel 2nd and 3rd gear are my strongest pulls, comparable to the turbo pull I had in my 2.0T. Z FTW.
