The specs for the new N20 engine sure look good: 240 hp, 260 lb-ft $1,250 rpm

They are also coming out with an electronic sound generator to improve the 4-banger aural characteristocs.

This engine will be available nearly four years after the B8 A4 was introduced and has 30 additional hp and the same peak torque. That doesn't seem like a game changer to me. However, it would be nice to see more peak hp out of the 2.0T.

LOL. It's just for decoration, man. It's just for decoration!

Whistle tips. The best part was the beater station wagon that drove by with the whistle. That sure makes me want some whistle tips!

They already have the an engine that would over shadow BMW's 240HP rating...the TT S engine, rated at 260HP.

Not to mention, the BMW 4-cyl is running 19PSI. If you run 19PSI on an Audi 2.0T guess what you have. More HP and TQ than the BMW 2.0T.

I wonder if this engine will have a HPFP that is more reliable than that of the N54.

Nope, from what I'm hearing on Bimmerpost BMW still isn't convinced there is a problem with them...
