Performance parts for the A4...

[morgej@rpi.edu (James Morgenstein)]

Hello group....

I've been following the group for the last several weeks to prepare
for the possibility of selling my current ride (95 5-speed Taurus SHO)
to be replaced with an Audi A4 Quattro 5-speed).

I've got some questions about performance, especially given the
impending arrival of the A4Q 4-cyl turbo.

I'd prefer the V6 b/c its available now and has more toys, but I
figure the A4Qt will be easier to make faster.  What performance parts
are available to make the V6 faster?  How much faster can I expect it
to get?

My performance target would be to make the A4Q equal to my SHO....~6.5
sec 0-60.  Official numbers put the A4Q V6 at 7.8 and the A4Qt at 8.0.
How realistic is a 1.5 sec drop while keeping the car drivable every
day?

Thanks for the info.

James
(currently a 95 SHO)
