You may be right, but I still think it depends on the engine you start with. From what I've read about the 2.0T people are not getting significant performance increases with simple bolt-ons. Based on HP to power, the 2.0T would have to add anywhere from 50 to 30 HP if the final weight figures for the FT end up being 2800 to 3000 lbs
