Stalling!!! Alright, check it out, This is happening to me almost every time. I am driving at say 50-60 MPH and then I punch it, to say pass a car or even just to burn out, and my car stalls and balks down for a few seconds before kicking in to gear. And it dont even kick into the next gear, it almost seems like it stays in the same gear or goes down one. Its an A4, talk to me!

Sounds like you have something backed up in there somewhere. I'd try small things first to make sure it isnt something stupid. Change your fuel filter, check/change your air filter as necessary, and heres a good one for ya: Go to your local autoparts store and grab a can of carb cleaner and let the engine run, spray the cleaner into the intake while revving the engine, and that should clear out any junk thats in your throttle body/IAC passages. I just did that to my beater and it did wonders for a similar situation! If those don't work, I'd check into the ignition system (maybe plugs?), and research from there if that isn't it.
