FYI TT vs TTS

Hey,
    From all the articles I have read on the TT (a damn good one at VW
Vortex by the way, just went up), the deal is that the TT will be available
in 180hp and 225hp versions. The TTS was never mentioned, and the TT
roadster (unlike the showcar) will not be called TTS but TT roadster. The
TTS will be a crazier version introduced a later time. The TTS showcar had
about the same hp as the 225 version, but again the TTS has never been
mentioned, and TT coupes with the 225hp have been shown to the press.
    Now another blurb I have read. Rumor was that Piech was not content with
the lack of 6cyl in the TT. I had read that he having Audi work on a way to
maunt the 2.7 biturbo in the TT. How this will be done (longitudinally or
transversely) was not clear. If this is true though, then the TTS will be
with the 2.7tt making TT also stand for something else (twin turbo).
