Audi A5? But then only a 210BHP engine, and not as tunable as the mk2 Cupra.

That's exactly what I think, why couldn't they have fitted it with a K04 turbo, instead of having to go for the 3.2L or S5 to get any sort of performance but then the weight of the 6 cylinder would kill the handling off.
 
Looked at the Scirocco, but can’t get much out of it when you tune it compared to the mk2 Leon.


Get around 260-270bhp i heard, that enough for me, the cupra gets around 310bhp from a remap which is impressive, does the scirocco have the smaller turbo on? is that why its less bhp?

There's a rumour going around that the A5 will be fitted with the 5 cylinder turbo, but the car will be a lightweight edition...ffs, that means it's going to cost at least £40k.

Just give us some decent performance! the cupra engine in the A5 - brill.

Audi's 3.2 petrol is dead, they might as well kill it, which i think they have. it's pointless.

Yeah stage two ive been reading that that's the peak. Stage 2+ wont be much more i reckon. The engine's not using a K04 i think. Supposed to be "economical performance".
