Can anyone explain to me how the quattro system in the R8 is arranged i cant seem to find any pictures of a really detailed cutaway or the engine, gearbox or quattro system extracted from the car itself.
Any pictures would help too. Im a bit of a car nerd and like to know the goings on under the bodywork of cars!

cheers
