they never did test the 16v for 0-60 when they had 60k on the clock, which is when they were meant to be their fastest.

i reckon another couple of tenths should easily be shaved off. you can scare a vr6 into action with a good 16v, but he'll still leave you for dead at 70-80 though.

having said that, my engine got rebuilt last year, many ?ks, and it is much faster now than it ever was. a quick standing start and counting gave me a very odd number, so odd - i cannot of counted correctly, go-1-2-3-5-6-3 damnit..... ;D ;D ;D

i shall test my lil baby soon on the A3. i'll record it and we'll see how well we do. if its good i'll post the vid.
