The original Audi has been set aside in favor of the LS2. The Audi did not sell well. I do not know the specs of the Audi.

The engine in the Type F was actually a 1.8T VW engine (Close cousin to the Audi 1.8T). The engine was tuned by Cosworth and generated @ 250HP. We chose the GM LS2 option for several reasons:
1) cost/reliability
2) performance
3) availability
4) serviceability

The VW/Audi engine availability was limited and we could not find a reliable partner to work with here in the US. While that engine did perform well we feel that it is still hard to beat US V8 grunt!
