New 1.8t motor power potential?
Hey I was wondering if anyone heard any info on the power potential of this motor. Since its turbo and direct injection shouldn't the gains be more than current SC version? Thanks

Yes - it has greater potential. Depends whether it's tuned for fuel economy or power. I have not seen any mods yet but they will come.
