Default 180hp TTQC or 225hp TTQC?

I'm sure this question has been asked countless times, however is the 225hp TTQC worth the extra greenbacks? Would an APR chipped 180hp TTQC be a nice compromise, based on price? I am on a budget and do not want to pay over $40K for my next car. I have had fleeting thoughts of a 180 FWD TTC with premium package only, and a possible aftermarket stereo, plus an APR chip. Would chipping a FWD TT, be asking too much from the front wheels?

Also, there seems to be quite a few folks with horrible 5-spd shifting issues. Has this problem been solved on the '01? Is it better to simply wait another year (so I can save more dinero) and buy the 225hp TT? Thanks for any comments.

I have tested both. Go for the 225. The extra power is evident and the 6th gear more fun.
