I think the W series Engines are So complicated (although I only seen the W10 twin turbo engine),I hope they are very reliable.I hope I don't have to rebuild one in my life.Engines are getting a bit too complicated now days.

probably hand built....considering the # that they're gonna sell, it probably isnt cost efficient to get all the tooling to have an automated assembly line.
yes, it has 4 turbos....2 are visible, the other 2 should be mirror image.

your all morons serously its not that horrficly complex their is nothing truly new in that block. you have varible valve timming thats been around for a long time and no honda did not invent it. the only new thing about the block is the w layout its slightly more complex then just 2 v formations slapped togehter but somobdy who isnt halfway retarded or who has accauly worked on a car. can figure that motor out. god damn bunch of stupids. and their is 4 turbos.

damn tkach, u're right! now that i look at this again its so simple! i dont know what i was thinking earlier...  ops: I have no idea why the brightest minds at the volkswagen group are struggling to make this motor work. i mean really, did they really have to delay the launch of the car because of stupid issues like cooling, and a semiautomatic 7 speed gear box etc? i mean obviously you could have designed the whole thing in your sleep, what with your cornell mechatronics Phd and your stanford CS degree! only problem is that you didnt actually graduate from either because your english was horribly sub-par :roll: . in any case, they really should have hired you instead of that whole team of experienced engineers. too bad during the interview they thought u were too much of know-it-all ass. I for one bow down to you superior intellect and knowledge!
ps. sorry they didn't hire you.
pps. if you hadn't noticed i'm being sarcastic
ppps. fuck off :fist:
