I thought that was strange, id heard of them being the same before, but then
a lister corrected me, I know an ovlov 20v (t5) doesn't look anything like
the audi unit.  Also if I remember correctly the diesels were similar in
some way

Dave,

The ovloV I5 has never shared anything with the Audi
engine. It is an I5 with 20v in some cases but that's
all, apparently the firing order isn't the same and
I'm sure the bore/stroke are different.

HTH,

Mihnea
