I just stumbled across the 2010 SAE certified horsepower and torque curves for the L99 and LS3 at media.gm.com. The L99 puts out more torque than the LS3 between 2000 and 4000 rpm. I imagine the VVT on the L99 has a lot to do with that. Combine that with the A6's lower first few gears and no wonder the L99 is rated quicker 0-60. Here are the links to the graphs:

Anyway, I have enjoyed my LS2 A4 GTO, but am looking forward to driving an L99 SS someday or year (my dealer says I might be able to test drive one by the end of the year- yeah, okay, at least I have my GTO for now).
