Well I'm stumped. I'm looking for a car that is fast when it's upgraded, (I'd like to hit high 13's or low 14's), but I want an automatic. I thought an A4 might be the answer, but it's looking like the Audi automatic can't handle the hp. Am I dreaming when I look for an automatic that can run these kind of times? It seems like automatics no matter what kind of car have a hard time with large amounts of hp. Any suggestions/comments are appreciated. Thanks as always.

the going theory seems to be aroung 225-250hp for the 1.8 tranny, anyone correct me if
I am wrong. Slightly more if you run easy and use a bigger extra trans oil cooler.That is why mine is being gone over by Level 10 services. They claim it will have NO prob living behind 400+ hp and similar torque.

I've never met with them face to face, hear great things, and I am on the east coast. I plan
on just sending them the parts they tweak in the trans and having my local mechanic do the tear down and reassemble.
