Default 1.8t or 1.8t quattro

i am think about buying a 1998 1.8t avant but thought that it had the same 132kw motor that is in the quattro version. Is this correct ? If it is different what is the diffrence in the motors that would explain the higher output for the quattro release

thanks

Default Same motor, same output

European car?

Could be different, but the NA cars have the same output between quattro and FWD.

Default It may have been different in Europe/UK...they had a Quattro sports model with higher output...

But then again, it's the same engine, just software differences...
