Nothing in the official press release is mentioned about FSI technology for the new R32. The new R32 having FSI are just rumours. Some acquaintances of mine had a discussion going on about this. So one mailed VW Germany. He got the answer back that this new R32 engine isn't featured with the FSI injection. The question of course remains, cause maybe the guy who answered the mail didn't knew a lot about it and just replied what he thought was right.
So it still is uncertain if the new R32 really has the new VR6 engine like the new Passat and the upcoming R36 or if it just is an update of the 'old' VR6 engine.

"Volkswagen AG has released the first official information on the new Golf R32 for the German/European market. The immediate question that will come to North American enthusiasts minds is why another 3.2l VR6? The 3.2l VR6 in this latest generation R32 now has fuel stratisfied injection (FSI) technology and now outputs 250hp more efficiently and with better economy."
