The W16 alloy engine developed by Bugatti for the Veyron 16.4 will have a special and absolutely unique place in the history of sports car construction. Its design employs the space-saving VR principle with two particularly slender eight-cylinder blocks arranged at a 90° angle to each other.

this might help too:

If you still dont believe me I have those images in 1920x1440 resolution if that isnt big enough
I will agree that the W16 design is LIKE 2 V8 engines together, but it is one engine in the 16.4
Also W engines are not completly rare: Audi is using them along with VW and maybe a few others.

lol yeah, its basically derived from 2 V8 engines being put together. But there are modifications to the blocks that must be made for all 8 middle cylinders and in the bugatti its not exactly 2 V8s welded together. It was engineered as a W16 from the start so the design is only similiar to 2 V8s in theory. In practice I believe the W16 was more based off of the existing W12 Audi was using at the time.

Actually it appears that the 2000 Audi Rosemeyer was a huge hint to the Veyron (W16 engine, same kinda styling). So Audi had a W16 engineered already when doing the Veyron, and I am assuming this engine was the platform used in the Veyron

haha yeah. good call btw. anyways back to the thread topic.
I really am not a fan of the r32 or vw for that matter as the people down here in florida who drive vw's are the friends of the ones who drive the srt-4's.

it is the same concept. like when they grafted 2 extra cylinders on the v8 from the dodge to make the viper motor. that was the literal prototype. 2 grafted cylinders to the already v8 motor. cool huh? i bet the prototype for the w16 motor was 2 v8s grafted together also
^^HAHAHAH WHAT A LIE!!!!!

then dont say the 1.8T rapes the type-s you once again made another blanket statement and you're gona keep getting pwned on this forum if you keep making blanket statements. and it's not "turbo kicks in... cya" if he only won by a fender.
small as turbo takes a car with more hp. thats kinda impressive imo. dont give a *** what you say but from what ive seen, havent seen this gti lose to any honda other than s2k.
oh ya im getting "pwned"...go back to your counter strike you fukin geek

how am i a geek? you're the little ****** 16 year old that needs to grow up. you didnt read the 10 to 15 comments people made to lower your freekin pride?? or did you just choose to ignore those cuz you know you got owned? and doesnt the gti have 200 hp just like the type-s does? like i said i doubt he's stock and beating all the cars you say he's beating. and if he IS beating them, i doubt they have any mods. cuz my friends' type-s's would never loses to GTI's and believe me i've seen it plenty of times.
