[V8] Emergency?

[Ron Wainwright]

LOL.... I was talking to this guy on AW about his 200 20vt & in the thread he mentions,

"quote" my friend shayne is putting in a 4.2L from a 2001 A8 into his V8 5 speed. i think he said he needs to run a much later model computer to make it all work.

figures the car will have about 425HP by the time the engine is the way he wants it. i.e high compression and cammed to high heaven."/quote"

 So know that I got a little info... is that 425HP NA.. or turbo?
