no V8 FTL, im guessing mid to low 14's in the 1/4? V8 woulda easily been low 13's.
How do you think you can shoe horn a V8 in an A3 chassis which is nothing in comparison to the A4....

You got it all wrong. A3 chassis is same as the VW GTi. The A4 chassis is the same as the Passat.

Maybe your thinking of the RS4?
