Have a look at this, 168bhp from a 1.4 petrol engine! :eek:

That looks mighty interesting... just keep your fingers crossed they'll use the 2.0 FSI engine as well

what a compact looking wee engine to be chucking out the likes of 168bhp.

If VW are heading down this route the possibilities for future motors like the R32 powerplant are fantastic,

I wonder how potentially tuneable it will be though, or maybe VW have just reduced their usual safety margin???

This was posted up a while back. Indeed quite impressive.

question is.. will it fit in furby engine bay?!

Lancia started it off with the Delta S4 in the 1980's.

over 400bhp from a 1.8.
