5kcstq european spec fuel distributor upgrade - the verdict?

[urquattro]

... can't say anything one way or the other about the potential, but I can
confirm that the 034 133 481J was used with the MC engine starting with the
"K" vins ... even in the USA.  AFAIK the output spec for the MC engines in
the 200s was not altered from that in the earlier cars.  Methinks the new
head will not necessarily provide any horsepower, but it may well give a
better fuel vs. airflow curve ...

HTH!
