<< Your main concern above all, is the power band!  Knowing exactly where
 your motor
 produces its peek power output, in relation to the drive train gear
 ratio's, and the cars
 suspension, environment and operating condition.
 
 Your Audi was designed for the "street", to last a long time, and get
 good gas mileage.....
 
 What more could one ask for!  >>


I can ask for 6gs without having the fuel pump shuting off ....

You make good basic sound points but were not talking about 
a plain vanilla 5ks spinning an 010 auto slush box here doing 
2 grand at 55... 

Were talking about 4kq's with tall gears and a mere 115hp. 
Where 55 means 3 g's,  You havta have enough R's 
to downshift to 3rd so you can blast past that 200Q in front 
of you that's towing the house trailer (with a 944S on the roof ) !!!
