I honestly think you are pushing it a little bit looking for all of those qualities AND low 13s...maybe high 13's would be more realistic. Anyway, an audi would be a good choice, but modding one to run low 13's might not be very practicle. I don't know anything about these cars, but I know other guys who have run high psi turbos on supras and what not, and you have to be constantly monitoring your engine and turbo.

Also, modded turbo engines have a tendancy to burn seals and just not last as long...

I'm not bashing the audi A4, as I don't know enough about them to do so, but I think what you really are looking for is an Audi RS6 or something, AWD, and reliable V8 power. I don't know how soon you are getting married, but many they will come down in price by then??

If your looking into the Audi, look into GIAC or APR, very high line reliable companies that run on the conservative side. The internals on the 1.8T audi are good for 350hp Daily Driver on 93 octane after that your playing with fire.

cost would be 3500-4000 front mount intercooler included with PCM tuning as well.

Legacy GT + $650 for Cobb AP gets you a high 13 second car
$2500 will get you to mid 13 second car.

The 2006 WRX gets the 2.5 STI engine also so there will be even more mods.
The GT is much faster out of the box then the 1.8T.

DO NOT get the 1.8T if you are not going to mildly tune or not tune at all LOL.

for 500$ you will be making 215 hp and 230 torque crank.

i used to have a 91 notchback.... and i've always had a soft spot for them. i'd love to set one up for road racing.

Eh, make things simple. Buy an STI, rip off the wing and giant hoodscope. Then, swap seats with someone with a wrx. There you go, low 13 secs, cheap, and clients might not be offended to ride in it
