how fast should a chipped A3 go from 0-60?

I borrowed a friend's GTech the other day to check my times. First off, I don't necessarily believe in solid reliability on the readings from the GTech and I also was having problems getting a solid launch without excessive wheel spin. My 0-60 times ranged from 5.6 to 6.3 seconds. I imagine that if you split the difference, the time of 5.9 seconds would be very close to the actual. Using the same theory then the 1/4 mile is 13.9 seconds. Not to shabby for a 2 liter engine! I also don't have any other mods at the moment. Adding an exhaust should reduce that time by a little.
Cheers!

did you actually run a 13.9, that sound really fast for chip only.

That was the average of the extremes. Like I said before, I don't necessarily trust the GTech since it gave such a varied reading. But, the Chipped A3 is very fast. Definitely puts a Chipped 1.8T to shame. I absolute love the 2.0T engine!
Cheers!
