No, we and the french just havn't got the budget of VAG to produce the new tech' that they can, along with BMW- the TFSI engines are just the most amazing advance in IC engineering in the past 10 years- they use a supercharger AND a turbo, combining the two in a specific chamber PER cylinder, not a common plenum chamber- a 2.0 TFSI engine on top tune produces 200hp, and the same emmisions as a 1.6 normally aspirated engine, they have also introduced (copying BMW I might add) the auto engine cutout when the car stops which is wierd to drive at first but you soon get used to it.
However, the Audi RS6 with the same V10 as the Lambo' Gallardo, although an amazing engineering feat, and the height of discreet 'boy racer' beating, is pointless.
But i'd love one, maybe thats the point!
