It is.  2226cc.

And the pistons - also shared with the ur-quattro's RR engine.

I don't personally like the ADU engine.  It seems to come out of the
Audi family tree very early on - it's more like a souped-up WR engine
than anything else.  The RS2 is (IMO - Dave will probably disagree) not
a very pleasant car to drive in heavy traffic.
