MC transplants

[ed armstrong]

Duncan,

In the the USA the MC motors were rated at ~160 hp
stock compared to the earlier KH motors at ~140 hp.
The MC motor also contained more sophisticated engine
electronics and a water cooled turbo. They also had an
extra ~100 cc of displacement.

For these reasons most choose the MC. 

A 1985 quattro coupe w/o turbo ?!! Very rare car. I've
only seen one of these in person.
