Check it out:

Audi might be building something to actually keep up with the 335i

Just my IMHO
Audi is trying to confuse everyone (like always )
So we hear some sources saying V8, others say TT or SC.
They might come up with a SC just to be different in the scene, but they realize what success they had with a b5 s4, so who knows ))

V6 TT would be sick ... too bad the B5 S4 was so unreliable thou. Hopefully if it goes TT it will be more reliable then the last.

So i guess that is for sure now... I remember one guy on one of the Audi forums was saying that he talked to some good sources and he was telling us about S/C but not a lot of us really tought it would happen.
We should wait to see the specs. If it is a twin charged SC with smaller pulley and iforged pistons ))
On the other hand... it is the first time Audi and VW AG in general coming out with a SC engine so i wonder what the realibility will be.
I know that VW had some Sc developments in the past, but still, who knows
Just my 0.3 rubles ))

+1, but if they did use the V8, they would be using the same engine for 3 S4s in a row.
