Default yeah yeah... why does everyone always say that...

the car is a great all around car... even if most people dont think so (alot of drag strip haters in this forum). for the audi turbo a chip has been shown to improve hp and im sure an exhaust system can help some as well. a turbo upgrade kit would not be out of the question either... that would bring your HP up pleanty.

for your best options i would check out some of the tuners... many listed in the links section of audi world... here are a couple of them that i would look at:

Default at a rate of 32.2 feet per second,

it would take 41 seconds to drop off that cliff and cover a 1/4 mile.

Default OK since you wanna get all Mr. Wizard on us.... ;)

...you're using 32.2 fps as an average to get 41 seconds; how many feet will it take for the object to reach terminal velocity? How did you determine 32.2 to be the correct average for the rate of descent? =)

Default simple get a K04 kit for around 2K that will get you in 14.7

i recomend to get the kit from DSR, i think you will need the K27 or K 28 chip not sure>??? but the high boosting chip is what you need.

Default Well I do mid 14's with a stock K03 turbo. I do run a custom drag chip, 2.5" exhaust,

intake and a FMIC. Mid to low 14's are easy to get with just a simple turbo kit like the K04 kits or the stage 3 from APR. My goal is to run low 12's to high 11's. This will need a very large turbo upgrade that will not be easy to drive on the streets.
