Newby/engine questions

Hi Guys,
I am looking for a RRS after 3 years with a good Touareg.
I have made my mind on a L494 rather a L405 so now I want to get on quickly.
I would like to know if the RRS with 306 hp has the same engine than the RRS with 258 hp.
If it is not the same engine, do you know if I has two turbos?
Thanks a lot,
L

If you don't do a lot of mileage, best to stay away from the SDV6 and get the SDV8 or the Supercharged V8. --

Thanks for your reply.
But I do quite a lot of mileage, something like 35000 kilometers a year.
Thanks.

Same engine, different stage of tune from the factory.
We have a 306BHP SDV6 and it's great, far quicker than I imagined.
It definitely has 2 turbo's.

Thank you very much for your reply.
It is very clear to me the 306 hp has 2 turbos now.
Does the 158 hm have two turbos also?
Thanks you very much.

The official workshop manual refers to primary and secondary turbo's, so yes, they are 2 on all SDV6 engines regardless of the BHP. A Cheshire expat in France.
