Default Just read that on fourtitude

Specifically it's going to inherit the valve lift technology. So this should help a bit with power and fuel mileage.

<i>For the more powerful sibling of the 1.8 TFSI, the 2.0 TFSI, Audi is already working on an important further development. The two-litre engine is to be equipped with the Audi valvelift system. This new technology for variable valve lift control, which Audi introduced just a few months ago on its six-cylinder engines, will boost performance and efficiency even further.</i>

Default True. Many believe that. I was being conservative since dyno chp is, basically, "guesstimation".

In any event, the addition of valvelift on the new 2.0T should be good for a slight power increase while improving fuel economy.
