only info ive found is that on the newer 2.8 5 valve motor (190hp) not 2 valve (172hp) which is in the 1996, the 97-01 A4 curb weight would be around 3384 quattro and manual one thing that would need to be looked at for the first classing of a newer audi is they do not have front camber adjustment you would either put in an aftermarket adjustable upper links or try and mismatch from another audi to gain or reduce camber.
