You keep your I5 coupe. Only a little over a 1000 were imported in 90 and 91. Probably a lot less now. Everyone and there grandmother has an A4.
Coupe is a unique car for the US. I went two years before I saw another. With what you have done, you probably have 200hp in the motor, but not to the wheels.
Horsepower isn't everything. I have most of the same modifications you have. Things to do now is suspension, tires, and wheels.
You can also change to S2 front and rear body sections. This will lighten the car by getting rid of the 5mph bumpers.
When you are on that mountain road, with the same suspension, the V6 A4 will be going over the side before you. The A4 weighs more than you and has more weight over the front wheels. His car will never handle as well as yours.
If you want more, you can upgrade to a S2 or RS2 motor, but big $. You can also make the motor a NA 2.6 liter. Mostly stock parts from a EuroVan. Give you more low end power due to the stroke of the motor.
All the parts from you 2.3 I5 will fit.
A couple of things you can do to the I5, is a header and a baffle oil sump.

Have fun with your car. What color is it?
