Re: Turboing a Roc;Anyone tried Audi parts?

Are you talking about audit turbo parts? the audi 5k turbo and manifold will
fit an 8v. all you have to do is cut and weld that 5th port shut. as for the
FI. why couldn't you use it? just block off the 5th cylinder hole. i've seen
a friend that done it, the car didnt' run rich or anything. if you block off
that 5th cylinder hole. your fuel pressure will rise as well. you might run
into a tuning problem with the mixture, but it'll still work.
