Thumbs up 0-100mph in 3.3seconds

Anybody catch the episode of Super2nrTV today? They had an Audi TT with twin engines, each putting out over 400 HP! It goes 0-100mph in 3.3 seconds!
Only thing I've been able to find on the net so far is a picture page:

Freakin' awesome!

It's a program on that Spike TV channel, used to be TNN. Runs just before Road and Track TV. It's largely a "ricer" program, with a couple dweebs for hosts, but fun to watch.

I remember reading a VW Golf with the same concept about 10 years ago.

Oh yeah. I think my VW-nut nephew showed me an article about that car. talk about an engineering nightmare, to get two engines synchronized.
