Lizard King: (I think this is a different topic?)
I owned a 1990 TSI AWD. I was referring to the AWD turbo vs the FWD turbo and the difference is approx. 200 lbs., due to the AWD alone. I rebuilt my turbo on my car and that weighed about 50 lbs. You can add that weight to the total also. In saying that the gas mileage goes in the following order.
Worst to best:
1. Talon AWD Turbo (TSI AWD)
2. Talon FWD Turbo (TSI)
3. Talon FWD (ESI)
