Yes, this has the same motor as the EOS (and others).

There is no known power limit of the DSG tranny yet. It also rev matches on upshifts and downshifts. You can even stack downshifts. Simply blip the left paddle the number of downshifts you'd like to do as you approach a corner and as you brake, the car will downshift & rev-match appropriately. I doubt we will see many of these breaking, as 99.9% of audi guys that strap on 'big turbos' do a gt28rs, which is a little smaller than the stock turbo on my Evo.

I can't tell you how smooth this car is, recaro seats, the DSG is simply amazing, and the little motor makes good power stock. If anyone wants to go check one out, definitly gotta go visit this girl Laura that we bought it from at westsideVW. I'll post her info here later.

So when you downshift for a corner it doesnt shift automatically? It shifts as it thinks it reaches an appropriate RPM range?
