torque and cost too much. Audi had already tuned the 3.0 engine/exhaust system to perform the best it can...aftermarket stuff won't be better.

The only thing worth it is to supercharge the 3.0 to get 300+ hp and 300+ lb. ft. of torque...you've gotta wait for the kit to come out, but it will be very expensive 5K+

turning off the AC. I know that it supposedly only robs 3-5hp, but when turned off, my 3.0 seems much peppier. (Maybe this is because I have the tiptronic)

Sorry I can't help in a more technical way, but luckily there are some awesome people on this board that DO know what they are talking about (unlike me).

but who knows how that will translate to real world improvement. (Those are the numbers for the <A HREF="http://www.autobraun.com/site.pages/wetterauer/wettaudi.models/w2002-a43.0l30v.html">Wetteraurer chip</A>, by the way.)

I'm waiting either for either a supercharger later on or the new S3.

But on a N.A. engine, it doesn't "kill" the torque; It just depends on how much backpressure it reduces on the engine.
