Variation on chipped 1.8T vs. 3.0--which is quicker "passing" (50-70mph)?

You don't often see much for comparisions of these two when it comes to things like top gear passing speed. I'm more concerned with this figure than a zero to sixty comparison. Any thoughts on this???

A chipped 1.8T is quick on the hiway, but quicker than a 3.0?

3.0 is 221 stock, but if we ever get the Wetteraurer chip, it ups the 3.0 to 244 lbs/ft
