" This is Audi's first foray with a VR6 powerplant and the new 3.2l is a honey. With 250hp and 236 lb-ft. of torque this new VR6 is deceivingly quick. The VR6 has its cylinders splayed at an angle of 15 degrees, creating a very compact package – something of utmost importance in this application since there is very little room under the hood for a six-cylinder. Roller cam followers with hydraulic adjustment are utilized reducing valve rotation friction. In order to reduce emissions and further improve efficiency, the inlet and exhaust camshafts are continuously adjustable. The compression ratio is a high 11.3:1 which means adding an aftermarket forced induction system (for those brave enough to consider it) will be tricky."
