Just wondering if anyone has seen an Audi engine in a 914. I read about a race car that had a turbocharged Audi engine but it was a tube frame and they basically took the entire driveline from the car (engine, transmission, axels.) I see that Audi has a couple of interesting powerplants - a twin turbo V6 and a 350 hp V8 - but noticed that Kennedy does not list the Audi brand in their list of adapter plates. Anyone know why this is? Are they too heavy? Too large? Too expensive? Just wondering because I think these engines would make decent power and have a natural kinship with the Porsche brand like VW.

At the moment I have both an 2.8 A4 and Biturbo S4 and visually the S4 engine looks smaller the bock is very short. The whole block sits in front of the centerline of the front wheel.

I think the Biturbo would definitely but I think the 1.8 turbo from a TT would be a better solution, chipped with exhaust ~250 HP.

The 2.8 A4 is for sale if any one is interested
