Great, Quick Read Audi DTM Engine (for an RS5)
If you haven't read & viewed the slideshow on the homepage of this board (audiworld.com), the info on the new DTM dedicated engine is so mind-boggling that you'll be smiling when thinking of the engineering this took: a 187 lb 2.0 liter turbocharged 4 cylinder engine that will put out....wait....610 HP. Will rev to 10,000 RPMs & has a gear change at 9500. Insane thermal efficiency. I know-only designed to last for the 3800 approx mile racing series in an RS5. Still....if this is where Audi can take an internal combustion engine, wow. Why do I think sister company Porsche engineering might have had a little input in this process.....

The new eight-cylinder engine in the upcoming RS7 was developed by Porsche. Meanwhile, the six cylinders (2.9TT) developed by Audi is in the RS5, pan 4s, and future Porsche New Cayenne S and most likely the Facelift Macan Turbo.

FWIW Audi is developing all 4 and six-cylinder new engines used among Audi/Porsche. Porsche, on the other hand, develops all new motors 8+ cylinders and up. These engines are in the VAG group including Lambo/Bentley.

Re-engineered flat 6 turbo for the 992. Carrera S, AWD Carrera 4S. They consider this a new engine as so many changes have been made from original naturally aspirated versions. Also talking about using a new generation hybrid flat 4 used in the 919 for the new 911.

Sure sounds like Porsche went back to the garage and designed a new flat 6 engine for the 992 911.
