How do you figure from that statement?  The 2.0 16v motor that is in
the pipeline bears almost NO similarities to either the "old" 16v
motor nor the current 1.8T.  It's a direct-injected motor that's
reverting to 4 valves per cylinder only because the new injection
setup doesn't leave room for 5.. <or at least one auto rag wrote
this in an article about it).
