[Jaywoo_A3]

Look what ive just found scrolling though ebay, look like a good engine to get good power out of a S3.

My standard engine is 375hp, with NO turbo, jsut like that!!

Ha, stick a big enough turbo on a metro motor and its 375hp!

What car do you drive then!?

No, I mean that without the turbo, its pointless quoting any power output, its the turbo that gives it the power!

So my stock S3 motor without a turbo on it I could quote as 375hp but with "no turbo", Wiht it its only 225hp!!

Sorry my bad! i understand now!

2.0 is a bit of an over-bore for the 1.8 block isn't it? Thought most only went to 1.9.

Still, interesting place to start if it's had the internals done... 500bhp quattro

I think it depends on the stroker kit you put in there. 1.9 - 2.1 seems to be the norm for the 1.8T.

Depends upon your definition of Quattro.

Depends upon your definition of Quattro.

As quattro as the engine orientation and an uprated haldex controller would let you presumably?

The point was more the power potential with traction too. But there's always one...
