A quick trip to Audi's website says that all the new 3.2L V6s are Quattros and all the I4s are FWD.

My dad bought one of the first TT's in Minnesota way back when. It is a fun car. I don't care for it all that much, but I would hardly say that it sucks.

Real mature people... And I say that being very immature.
actually it stands for toyota racing development, and i dont know about the audi TT it drives like a slush box, but when you actually put some suspension under it it makes it pretty nice.

You may have been screwing around, but there seriously are people who think that.

being different and being practicaly and realistic are the problems. you can be different, but you will most likely loose some peroformance and spend more money. if you realy want to do it, get your turbos, go to a GOOD reputable shop that can make you custom turbo manifolds or headers and exhaust and inter cooler piping, and get a 2-1 intercooler like on a 350Z if you were to turbo one and then go to town. but thats thousands of dollars for no gains, and something not really that special in the end.

ya he did make sense. A good welder/exhaust shop could probably do all the work you need. Tube headers for both turbos, downpipes, intake pipes, full exhaust. Just give them your credit card and who knows how many thousands of dollars later you'll have a twin turbo Z31!

Yeah thats the thing up here in AK there arent really ANY reputable welding shops that have done any kind of work on custom turbo manifolds. our only real speed shop is competant and able to do custom intercooler piping but they dont have the equipment to weld or bend the thick doo doo. And accept for our local midas and muffler shops there arent really any kind of reputable exhaust shops thats why i was hoping there might be an off the shelf item lol.

see, the problem with turbo headers is they get VERY VERY HOT. so many times welds will bust. thats why it need to be a good shop, you dont bend anything to make headers you cut out V shaped sections of straight pipe and weld them to make a nice arc.
