Finding a 5kcstq

[Jack Gagnon]

Steve,

I don't know what the cause of the low boost could be, but the following
website is a good  start

http://www.sjmautotechnik.com/

I have a 87 5000 turbo quattro for sale if you are interested.  I just
bought a 92 S4 and need to sell my 87.

I did a lot of work the first year I owned it, the second year has been
pretty uneventful.

Where are you located?,  I am in Southern Maine

Jack

I have been looking for a 86-90 5000-200 turbo Quattro.  I have noticed the
cars are very solid, except for a few with tappy valves, steering rack
leaks, and minor interior problems.  But I have noticed that several don't
show the correct spec for boost.  1.3-1.4 is the correct peak range.  I
looked at a couple of both stock and modified.  The modified cars had a cold
air intake or the a k&n air filter, combined with a modified waste gate.
These modified cars did not pull to the 1.3-1.4 range.  Could improved
breathing lower the pressure or is this a sign of improper mods, or
impending doom?
