Default Random curiosity question...

Do European versions of the A4 come standard with more Horsepower than the North American versions?

I think chip tuning companies work more closely with euro dealers than in the states. I have heard that the stock tip trannies in europe are not as sloshy and they were tuned down to shift slower for the US. That may be a myth, but them damn europeans never cease to amaze me.
When driving in europe on a road like the autobahn, it would be considered risky or unsafeto have a slow dog performer like our stock 1.8t's. Its like putting grandma behind the wheel on any given road in the US.
