The term used to refer to Volkwagen/Audi's 1.8 litre turbocharged gasoline engine.  Features of the engine include: -a cast iron cylinder block -aluminum valve cover, oil pan, and crossflow intake -dual overhead camshafts or DOHC (later revisions included a variable valve timing feature for performance/emissions control) -5 valves per cylinder, three inlet and two exhaust -individual ignition coils for each cylinder (no distributor) -Sequential fuel injection -drive-by-wire throttle control system  The engine came in several revisions: transverse: AWD, AWW, AWP, APH/AVC , AWV, ATC, AGU, ARZ, AVJ, AUM, ARX, AWC, BJX, AJH, AQX, AYP, BVP, AJQ, APP, AUQ/ARY, BBU, BVR, APY, AMK, APX, BAM, BFV(240hp) longitudinal: AMU, BEA, AEB, APU, AWT, BFB, AJL, BEX,   The fact that the engine was originally designed with the use of a turbocharger makes it very compliant to the introduction of higher flow aftermarket turbochargers and high boost with increased fueling.  Simple software tuning can increase the engine output to 200+bhp and 250+lb.-ft. of torque.  Changes to engine hardware can have the 1.8T engine producing over 300hp.
