Holy backwards engine batman.

Very cool indeed...... Pretty sure there are gonna be a few F/I ///M cars on the way soon.....As good as the TT motors are I think it will be a sad day

They are just that much more fuel efficient and "mod-able" than NA engines I cant wait to see the first TT ///M car!
Just imagine the power they are going to be pushing out! Merc had to supercharge their C32AMG to wring out the same power that BMW did with the same engine capacity NA e46 M3! already the guys with 135's and 335's are pushing huge power with minimal mods

Can you imagine the power they'll be getting on a FI M car after a tune.
The likes of AMG and RS-anything should be worried.
And talking about fuel economy...
I was getting 6.5 ltr/100 during the holidays to and from Hermanus.
Just doing 140-150km/hr when there weren't traps.
I think that's pretty decent for a "performance" car.

Well - back in November I clipped this from my OBC in the S3 ...
Braamfontein to Rivonia on the M1 at a modest 110km/h.
Not bad for a Revo'd, Forge induction kitted and fuel pump modded mere VAG 2 Litre powerplant me'thinks.
Having said that - stuck in traffic on the M1 yesterday sitting idle for 15 mins without moving - the OBC registered 36L/100.
