Default slightly more complicated than that

there would have to be a tune to go along with a smaller pulley......but in theory....yes, pulley kits.

Default Interestingly enough, the power output is close to the "claimed" power output of the G2.

I wonder if it will be intercooled?

Default the new V6 in the S4 will be turbocharged.

the article is a bit to literal in it's translation. " new supercharged V6. Bearing the 3.0T or TFSI badge"

Default Uh, like....why wouldn't they say "bi-turbo v6" -if it was indeed turbo'd?

I think you have you're facts wrong here.

Default LOL, you just keep on believing what you want to then.

With terms like "Supercharger", and Kompressor" -I don't see why it would have Turbo's; I.E. "bi-turbo".
