None specifically dedicated to the TT.. but European Car and European Tuner have articles on TTs from time to time. Probably going to be fewer and fewer as the MkIIs roll out..

Dont forget Quattro Quarterly.

You can also follow V-Dubs as we share alot of parts and technology with them, so thier tuning techniques will transfer over to the TT platform.

I've been getting European Car.
The format was better when I first subscribed, but then they changed to more of an 'upper crust' magazine. Nice writeups on cars I'll never own, and no longer any mention of mods I could do. Although, they do have a nice article about the MTM blower for the RS4, its only a $25,000 upgrade.

Had a chance to get Motor Trend really cheap. I see why, first article I get talks about Audis 'wanna be' sports car, the TT. Thats as far as I got, i threw the mag out. The rest I've been giving away after a brief look thru. Did you know, according to MT, 2007's car of the year is the f***ing Toyota Camry? Beating out Porsche, Jag, Audi, Cadillac.... It ruins my day knowing that magis in my mailbox.

motor trend is a crap mag i hate it. car and driver was the ultimate (back in day) with the Wars between Chevy corvette, Toyota Supra, Mazda rx-7, Nissan 300zx, BMW M3, Mitsu 3000gt Vr4 etc that issue was great still have it! In case your wondering the corvette C5 was the fastest. then the supra and the vr4 and M3 were very close

If you want to spend a little more you can get Top Gear magazine out of the UK. The subscription runs about 92 pounds a year for the US.

Top Gear is sold at Barnes and Nobles for $8 per issue. I have also started reading EVO and Car as they give you a good alternative to the Toyota Camry/SUV loving American Press. Also VW Tuners is also sold at B&N for the same press and features a lot of intensive tech articles on the 1.8T including the 225 in far greater depth than most mags. Their articles include radiator and drivetrain upgrades as well. As to the price the magazines are twice the price of american mags but are also generally twice as large. I hope this helps.
