lets do the math... HP to weight ratio



Stock GTI  172hp, 2800 lbs, 16.2 pounds to be carried by one hp


Stock GLX  172hp, 2900 lbs, 16.8 pounds per hp

Stock A4q  150 hp, 3100 lbs, 20.6 pounds per hp

My GTI  192hp(Dyno proven), 2750 lbs, 14.3 pounds per hp(chip filter
exhaust)

Chipped A4q 200hp, 3100 lbs, 15.5 pounds per hp

This list tells me two things, the A4 is definately the fatest, and it
is by far the slowest.  Keep this in mind also, the chip in the A4, for
almost a full bar of boost, cost 700 bucks.  The price for all three of
my mods was less than that.

I am not bashing the A4, I love the car, think it is awesome...  but
when you start trying to tell me that it is faster than my car, I am
gonna bite ya, every time.
