The Taurus SHO is making what 365 HP in a FWD/AWD platform. You aren't going to get much more than that if you had a RWD platform. So you'll get better MPG than the LS3 (maybe), but not better power. If you are thinking something between an LS3 and whatever you think might be under the hood of this mythical unicorn mobile you are all hoping for, that engine wouldn't be a TT V6. It would have to be something else.
And if you are thinking of something between the LS3 and the base V6, then you simly put the 6.0L from the G8 in there and get a a 360 HP car. But why would you pay more than the V6 and not get the full LS3/L99 experience. Most customers going up to the V8 would likely go all the way, not half way.
But it's always good discusssion. So what are you thinking for a TT V6? Cost and HP and FE?

a TT v6 doesn't seem like a good combo for such a heavy car. if you're looking for the ultimate corner carver with good acceleration. but I could be wrong.
