a3 2.0 tdi 170. Had a TT prior to this and tried to match performance with diesel but get better economy- a3 very heavy. Not much better economy wise."all or nothing" performance from engine. poor to 2500 revs then -- hold on for your life! Poor feedback from steering. Felt like i was back in a TT again in the scirocco. Very surprised by the performance, great design. Looking forward to a remap ASAP!
