I know it's not Audi but if you enjoyed that...I reckon you'll like this. 
British Engineering at its best. Has to be seen (and heard) to believe it.

Many years ago (25-30) I saw this guy hill climb his mothers Morris Minor in 
to which he had fitted his own designed Rover V8 twin turbo with nitrous 
which he had driven to the event. It simply whistled and went. Awesome. left 
a big impression.

Enjoy

After a period of little innovation (the 90's), it looks that automotive
engineering is on a march. New stuff appears each week, and old stuff is
being updated.



Here is a nice tech view of the turbo system of the R18. Very interesting.
