It mentions that it's the replacement for 1.8 TSI which is the same i think as Audis 1.8 TFSI. But it has just been replaced by a new high-tech 1.8 TFSI by Audi which features FSI/MPI dual injection. So i think something is wrong here. Or probably it will be a VW only engine, replacing the 1.8 where it is transverse. I think it is also the case with 2.0 TFSI, transverse version (in Q3) has a bit different torque curve than in A4/Q5, maybe there should be two versions of these engine.

Maybe this 1.6 T will be powering future Audi S1...?
