Would the V6T engine fit into a Mk5/Mk6 Golf?
« on: September 17, 2013, 07:46:26 pm »

On my way home tonight, I saw a relatively small car (the SQ5) with the V6T wing badges.

It got me thinking: Would this awesome unit fit into a Mk5 or Mk6 Golf?

And another thing: Why V6T when it's supercharged?  :confused:

The 3.0 TFSI is supercharged, according to Audi's website?

Sorry, what I meant to say is that the same V6T badge is found on S5's, which are definitely supercharged?

Yes it is, but your original post was in reference to the SQ5 was it not?

Just another peculiarity of the Audi range imo, rather like all the models look the same I guess they also wanted to standardise the badges, that and theres not enough room on the wing for the word 'supercharged'  :grin:

It was, but my point of interest is why is the V6T badge on the S5 if it's supercharged? (I admit though I didn't know the SQ5 was a turbo diesel, I assumed it was the same 3.0TFSI!!!)
