Obviously you never drove the Turbo model, my deluded friend. My "Vauxhaul" (I drove an Opel, BTW, not the re-badged Vaux), had a top speed of approximately 175MPH!!! (higher, actually, but at least that fast, on cheap gas, faster on premium... how fast is YOUR Audi?) I could take highway entrance ramps (the 270deg ones) at 50MPH!!!, comfortably, IN THE RAIN, 70 when it was dry (and, YOU, in your Audi?), 0-100kph took about 7seconds (ALL of this was bone-stock; my ONLY upgrade was lighter-than-stock wheels and Falken UHPAS tires), of course, this was a 1990 m/y Opel, I'm SURE YOU in whatever Audi YOU sport is MUCH, MUCH faster, straight from the factory... Whats' a Turbo 4cyl Audi's spec output, and performance stats, anyway?

I'm going to assume you only experienced you non-turbo 4's, and possibly the v-6 models... And that's why you seem to have your head so far up your poop-chute!
