Brandon, your point is indeedd valid. I chose to assume for this discussion
that Scott's urq and his avant would be more or less equal in acceleration
if not for the different turbos. This is a BIG assumption, but since Scott
implies it in his BTDT data, I chose to run with it, assuming boost cutoff
is the same in both cars and the extra weight of the avant would be more or
less offset by the better compression, etc.

I have no business in this conversation, but oh well-it is very interesting
(the parts I _can_ understand-and I'm a glutton for punishment)....Regarding
below--wouldn't immediate off the line performance weigh in favor of the
wagon due to better compression ratio and more sophisticated engine
management of MC motor?
