Really? People have told me, and I thought that the JY engine is
almost the same as the MC-1, just with 2144 ccm instead of 2226. The
turbo is a water cooled K26. One thing that really confuses me is that
the block has got  "holes" for dual knock sensors, the JY block went
out of production in 1987 according to Audi.. The engine in my car
looks like a MC-2, except that the engine block reads "JY" and the
turbo is a K26.. Strange?
