I love Diesel power so much. and if the New RS6 has that much power, I will find a way to import one stateside. I would love to own a avant that rapes Ferrari's and Evo's all day long.

500hp is good but they should do better than that. i love the tq though
with that much tq, you wont need to have anymore hp really

There was rumors about a year ago about a TDI powered TT, but i havent seen anything final on that. I wouldnt mind a 300bhp with 350ftlbs TT with 40mpg

Keep in mind diesels are built for torque, not HP; I'm surprised they're only getting 768ft/lbs outa a V12 TT. My buddy's duramax is pushing 500hp with 1200ft/lbs, and thats a single turbo 6.6 V8.

its due to diesels ability to boost extremely high compared to a gas engine. Running 30-40psi will make a huge amount of tq if it peaks before 5k. Making more power will require a larger turbo
