Quattro cars are fully mechanical, the only thing you can do is change the torsen differential to something different like Stasis engineering sells to make it a 80/20 spit instead of 50/50 or 60/40.
The TT and A3 that has a haldex four wheel drive system might have stuff available like that.

Call Stasis for prices, changing the torsen diff is pretty easy.
You just drop the prop shaft from the rear of the transmission, then un-bolt the tail housing of the tranny and the torsen pretty much falls out with it.

I do, but I turn it hard to feel the grip of the car, not to drift it.
