PLEASE VOTE in the EUROPEAN CAR MAG 1.8 CHALLENGE...

because most 2.8liter cars with superchargers don't put out as much power as the big turbo setups
many of which are custom setups in this competition. That and they wanted a competition that would be diverse with models, not just an A4 or passat. 1.8t motors are used in 7 audi/vw cars world wide. That and the competition was for a 1.8t motor not a 2.8 challenge.
