I must admit, I am dealing with purely "seat of the pants" evaluations,
but my pants said that the reduced weight coupled with hp numbers that
are almost identical (+ - 10, 15hp), the S would out accelerate the q any
day. The top end of the q would certainly be better though. The S is
geared pretty low (85-87 models w/close ratio), but it gets there pretty
well. I have acheived a top speed of around 110-115, but don't have a
lot of stright stretches. I don't have much more room on my license for
points either...

P.S. Anyone have graphs of the output at various rpm's for the -5? The
1.8L-4 would be pretty easy to obtain baseline figures, as it is VERY
similar to a GTi motor.
