Default B5 V8 biturbo

Think it can be done?

I mean, a audi 40valve 4.2 v8 with twin turbos.

must be the ultimate engine in a b5.
ligther than a 2.7tt, more displ, same efficient heads, free of vibration, alum block.
I would say 7-800hp easy.

It's bad enough fitting a 2.7T in there...

if you would want two turbos big enough for more than 600hp, I think you will have to move them up and out to the sides...
moving the engine back will give no room for downpipes...

have anyone put the turbos up and to the sides on a 2.7t ?

Default they've squished the 4.2L v8 into a b5; no idea how they'd fit the

turbo plumbing in there too

How is the 5cyl too long for a B5 when I've they've been put in both MK4's and MK1's? Hell I've seen a Chevette with a 350 in it. Anything can be done when you put your mind to it. I want to see someone put a Veyron W16 in the rear of a MK1, that would be pimp.
