Nope! That woul be the TTRS-Plus (360 hp) !
the standard TTRS only has 340 hp...

In Europe, the entry model would be the 170hp 1.8 liter TFSI, also available a diesel 2.0 liter with 170 hp

Another journalist misses the point. If all I wanted was a track car, I wouldn't buy a TTRS either. Fortunate for me, I drive on actual roads and to places. In this environment, it's tough to find a car that offers as much.

Default It's All Good

Well, the TT RS is a great daily driver. It's a great back roads driver. It gets good gas milage and it's a beautiful car. It is number 9 Audi for me and I can't say enough great reasons why everybody who is passonate about automobiles just don't run out and get one of these before they are all gone!

Just picked up a 2013 TT RS and I must say, quite impressive on H.P and TQ.
Next week we get the APR Stage II kit installed (by Futrell Autowerks here in Portland) to bring the H.P and TQ up.
Can't wait for the stage III turbo kit!

Congrats! My TT RS is on order and won't arrive until Dec/Jan.
Just curious, are you having any of the brake noise issues I see discussed in the other thread?

My hope is that Audi has done something in the 2013 models to control the brake noise.

Yes, I am getting brake squeel. Seems like the front only and it is just prior to coming to a complete stop.

Most of the TTRS's experience this. It goes away after prolonged use. I'm at 10K and it hasn't made a peep for many months.
