This article says 0-62 time for 09 TTQ coupe DSG is 6.2 seconds - or .2 sec. faster than the FWD DSG

This squares with my earlier observation that the 09 TT Q DSG is a bit lighter than the 08 FWD 2.0 despite the additional mechanics...or maybe its mostly the better grip.

2009 TT 2.0 Quattro w/DSG = 2,899 lbs
2008 TT 2.0 FWD w/DSG = 2,965 lbs

Highways mpg for the Quattro is 29 versus the FWD's 31.

1) The new generation 2.0T (ccta) is a bit ligher than the previous 2.0T(BPY)

2) Option packages are now a bit different. the 2965 figure is with the premium package and 18" wheels. A FWD without the power seats/options and ligher 17s may shave a significant amount of weight. Haldex is heavy though so not quite sure how accurate that figure is.

Stock for stock I wouldn't expect the 2.0Q to be much quicker than a FWD only because the FWD doesn't smoke the tirs that bad when stock.

Now if you tune it it's a completely different story....

Absolute values will be different since the TT is lighter but comparisons should be valid. The long and short of it is a tuned GTI is much quicker(even to 60!) than the r32. R32 is much better around the track because of the AWD. One could conclude that a chipped 2.0Q will smash the v6 in both areas.

I wonder if the 3.2 also has the upgrade...

"At the heart of the quattro system is an electronically controlled and hydraulically operated multi-plate clutch, which now works faster than ever thanks to a new pressure reservoir borrowed from the TTS. If required, all of the drive force can be redirected from the front to the rear wheels within a matter of milliseconds."
