Could be the R36...I remember reading somewhere the R36 would be pushing out around 300BHP so the RSI might be something similiar  :undecided:

I'd heard that VW had put the RSi on the backburner due to it not being financially viable. Mind you, that didn't stop them building the Veyron --£5M to build and selling for £850K. :huh:
