That would imply that the Quattro version would be more sluggish than the FWD version given that it'll be handling more weight but with no increase in BHP...correct?

Since this info contradicts what my sales guy tells me (tho his credibility is in question), can I ask what you source is?

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)

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)
