The problem aluminum is its a body man's nightmare for repair unless just completely replacing the whole panel meaning more expense. My sources confirm to same 2 base engines but the v8 will be upgraded for a little more HP, but the V6 will have a twin turbo option putting out about 400hp. Even without the TT v6 option performance increase will be substantial because of the 200+ weight loss. I estimate all cars to be running stock mid 13s and below. The TT probably hi 12s, V8 probably low to mid 12s. Not to mention the z/28 or ZL1. Don't know about them.  |
This is sounding pretty damn good at the moment. Here's hoping for the LGW TTV6 making it into the Camaro. With the A8 or M7, and cylinder deactivation, we could see 400hp, but with mpg rivaling the ecoboost Mustang.
