Ahh, a 20v fan I see!

Awhile back I had a serious itching for a 91 200 20vT and even had one
inspected by Dave at AutosportWerks...he talked me out of it.

Lets just say, in the VW world I am an 8v fan...when it comes to Audis,
I'll stick to the 10v equivalent :-)  (go with what is familiar, know what
I mean?)

I too had thought of a knock sensor as well...but in my experience those
rarely go bad, and are of the same design as the VW ones.  I am taking the
car up to Wolfsburg Autowerks in Boulder here next week to have them run
the codes...somehow I doubt my VAG-COM can plug into this car.
