Too many variables. My guesses? Lightning would destroy it from a dig, GTI from a 60+ roll.

Basicly, I was talking to a buddy of mine, and he owns a lightning with a 14 lb pulley (and maybe some other minor stuff), and hes trying to tell me that it doesnt matter, from a roll or a stop, that his truck is gonna destroy my car (03 gti 1.8t3/t40e, internals, etc. etc.). I told him that from a dig its very possible(theres no way hes gonna destroy me), but from a 20+ roll he doesnt have a chance, what I didnt mention is that most likely when I dyno it tommorow its gonna be putting down somewhere around 350whp, give or take 15whp. But like I said, Ill take his money If hes up to giving it away.

Keep in mind, while the truck only has ~100 more hp than you, he has probably 2x the torque.
