Turbo... Mmmmmm...

[fahrvergnugen at cox.net (David Utley)]

Mark,
  Looks like a nice kit, hopefully you got it for a good price...  The only
helpful info I can offer is from someone elses' experience.  Apparently, the
A3 intake is very restrictive.  I am told you see a lot better numbers with
the A4 intake in its' place.  I am told it is a near bolt-on.

Put this in the, 'For what it is worth' category...

Just scored this:

He didn't list all the parts of the kit in the post, but they're all
included...

Since I have a full motronic obd2 ABA swapped into my 86 it should be
a pretty quick upgrade (which is the main reason I picked this up vs.
building up a system myself).  I would imagine that I'll have to
modify the downpipe and some intercooler plumbing though...

Anyone have experience with this kit?  I did a bit of research on it
and it appears to boost up to 8 psi with the stock injectors and
compression ratio (netting 200hp).  A little weak, but it'll do for
now...  Should make the trip out west a bit more entertaining!  :)

On another note I just sold 'Ole Paul' - my 80 S that I picked up from
Kervin years ago.  The new owner is looking forward to giving him the
attention he needs to be a nice car.  I'll try to get him to sign up
to the list...  My Audi doesn't look like it's going to sell anytime
soon though - I guess the lack of a working center differential is
scaring people off...  Oh well, I've just secured another year of
storage for it, so maybe next winter I'll have her on the road
again...

Later,

Mark.
