Do the fuel injectors on 99A4Q really shut off at the speed that corresponds
to
the tire rating.  When I purchased my new A4 the dealer told me that the
fuel
injectors automatically shut off at 130 mph.  They said that this was the
case
because the tires equipped from the factory were only rated to 130.  This
would
correspond to the tire having an "H" rating.  However, I have the sport
package
on my A4Q and the tires that are on my car now, from the factory,  have a
"Z"
rating.  This rating corresponds to a speed of 150+.  So, will my fuel
injectors
still shut off at 130?  I'm trying to make a little extra time on the way to
work.
