still very heavy on torque so starts will be fast.. - TTsteve 2008-06-24 16:46:26 (94 views)

2.0T Quattro weighs nearly the same as the 3.2Q. It will be slower. Not a ton, but some. - BrandonLive 2008-06-28 19:16:55 (51 views)

Not off the start but only after it has taken off then the FWD will... - TTsteve 2008-07-01 09:04:46 (41 views)

The new engine design is already showing up on lots in GTIs/Passats/TTS still rated at 200/207 - Jeffc31337 2008-06-23 15:17:44 (158 views)

258 torque??? - BrandonLive 2008-06-28 19:19:03 (53 views)

Yes, 258 lb-ft of torque on the Valvelift version of the EA888 2.0T coming to the US first in the B8 - gk1 2008-06-28 19:48:54 (67 views)

I've heard that only longitudinal Audi motors get the valve lift version with 211 HP - Jeffc31337 2008-06-23 12:39:31 (176 views)

Yep <edited> - Astronut 2008-06-23 12:34:41 (168 views)

Update - after further investigation it appears not - Astronut 2008-06-29 14:46:09 (66 views)

AFAIK the 211HP variant will initially only be in the B8 A4. - gk1 2008-06-23 12:07:57 (129 views)
