Absolutely, because the transmissions are different and the performance of
the turbos are different. I'm not saying "mine is bigger than yours",
because I've driven both cars (well, not the two cars precisely, but a
chipped 88 5K 5-speed and an A6 6-speed).

Of course, we all heard confirmed that a Honda Civic beat a C5, so I guess
all bets are off without knowing the respective drivers. ;)

Best regards,
Brad
