tab Sucker Moderating Team 32,303 Member For: 20y 7m 5d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane Posted 11/03/07 12:46 AM Share Posted 11/03/07 12:46 AM Have owned a BA 4sp auto and now a BF Series II ZF auto. No contest. The BF in standard tune would have owned the mildly tickled 250rwkw BA. The BF ZF with anywhere near 300RW + is quick.... real quick to 60 / 80 k's. Agreed. Thread closed. No contest.←Surely you're not suggesting that a stock BF would out do a 250rwkw BA Typo right?←Based purely on seat-of-the-pants, I'd say it'd be fairly close The ZF gives plenty of punch off the line, where as the BA 4-speed auto is an absolute slug off the line unless you're stalling it up (in comparison).

If it was an NA engine I would say ZF hands down at rolling speeds as well, but because of the wide torque range of the turbo, the 4 speed plays with it well and allows each stretch of gear to perform at its best.
