I understood much better what you said (I must change my mental catalan-english english-catalan translator brain embedded, xD )

A full technical comparison between 1.4 TSI 90kW and 1.6 85kW (with 40 to 70 more torque between 1500 to 3500 rpm, and a lot more 3500 to 6000):

Flat torque from 1500 rpm is wonderful, oen friend has a Chevrolete Corvette '81 300 bhp 5.7V8 and redline is on 3700 rpm, torque impressive, the only engine with the same sensation on driving is a turbodiesel one, aha hahaha
I could drive my TDI at cruise speed of 190 km/h on german Autobahn (sometimes 200) at 4500 rpm and 10.5L/100km, 22,4 mpg at 120-124 mph i don't think there is a petrol engine of similar car could do this. WTF they mean with "slow"?
