CAT (certified automated truck) scale. Steer axle was 2320lb drive was 1680lb for a grand total of 4000lb. Now you need to consider that I got out but still had a lot of excess weight in the car. You need to subtract a 48lb seven year old sleeping in his booster seat in the back. A tool box about 15lb, 10'' sub in box and amp in the trunk about 60lb and random 25lb of BS throughout the car. You should add back in gas as it did take 12.38 gallons of gas right after I did the weigh in. The car seems about as porky as we all thought as well as front heavy.

The power is already there, it's the weight Audi as to work on.
