You probably made 10 times the EPA limit of NOx emissions though.
Funny enough, VW also got in a TON of trouble over (factory configuration) diesel cars cheating emissions testing.
I dont know if yours was a diesel, but those especially are known for being capable of remarkable power and fuel economy at the same time… IF you don’t care about emissions!
A long time ago my '76 VW Rabbit passed its emissions test in New Mexico. Granted, this was because the mechanic stuck the sensor up the tailpipe of his own car, but it was an impressive accomplishment nonetheless.

It still passed emission tests. The 1.8T engine (also common in Audis) was super tunable.

If I could just train the cat to piss directly in the DEF tank so I wouldn’t have to refill the thing
