audi coupe quattro tubi turbo?

[Mihnea Cotet]

If I were you I won't go through the trouble of fitting an unreliable 2.7l bi-
turbo engine but I'd rather go for a 20vt swap, with some easy bolt-on goodies
(I didn't say they're really cheap either) you have a shot for 400 reliable
horsepower, but that's just my opinion from a tuner's point of view. Then would
come the question of altering the urq's nature with a V6 engine but I won't
start that...


HTH,


Mihnea
