The new TT RS has a true racing pedigree just like the legendary 90 Quattro model. The German manufacturer claims that there is a connection between the 5-cylinder Quattro and the hot new TT RS.
Both cars put the power on the road through Quattro AWD and have 5-cylidner turbocharged engine. However, Audi 90 Quattro in its race version had around 600 horsepower, which is almost double than the 360HP in the 2.5-liter of the TT RS.

The BMW itslef on the other hand may have more to offer. If we are talking a
