That is still slow compared to my new 2009+ S2 starter

That was the best $400.00 I have spent on this car. Nice video though, I will have to make one

I'll have to agree as i just installed a new starter today ( not oem ) and it spins right up the same cold or warm with less than a 1-2sec crank

It even came with a QC starter report

Resistance: 10.006 ohms
MaxPower: 2.349 Kw
Current: 430a
Torque: 14.1 Nm
Voltage: 7.71v
Speed: 1571 RPMs
