Default Yeah, just imagine how much
slower you'd be without the turbo. You don't buy an A4 to drag race.

Default turbo is helping, but quattro - not necessarily, depending on road conditions
And yeah, I'm chipped, and I still have to push the car pretty hard to not get blown off by other cars off the line.

Default Since no one has said anything to help you yet, I will....
Get a chip! If you are at 150 HP now, then a chip should get you close to 200 HP. Around $500 or so. Look to get an APR or GIAC chip. Most everyone here runs with one of those. Use the search function and search for APR or GIAC chip and you will be overrun with information about them.
