The 3.2 V6 has Valvelift. The 4.2 V8, if Audi continues with it, would probably get it next. Not sure if Audi will put it on their turbo engines as those usually don't run sophisticated variable timing as the turbo already does that job. But Valvelift would probably has some benefit if used.
High RPM engines also don't usehighly sophisticated timing, BMW can't use their top variable stuff as it can't run high RPM. Valvelift is good for 8,000 RPM.

Valve-Lift and a Kompressor will work IMHO.

Read in an old ams issue that the next revision of the 1.8 TFSI will also get Valvelift.

Yes, the 3.2 V6 already has Valvelift. The 2.0TFSI will have it next. It improves fuel economy by a very good amount.
