Engine Swap '82 GT???

[Louis-Alain Richard]

Ask Martin Pajak: he has a 5 cylinder 20V normally aspirated 4000Q in his
fleet : martin at quattro.ca

Also, I also know a guy (Steeve Rombotis, from Rombotis Tuning in Montreal
QC) that dropped a 1.8T in a 90Q, and that cars works beautifully. If you
want to reach him, the easiest is to shoot an email to Brady Moffat at his
shop (info at dynodoc.ca) 'cause the guy works in the same building, about 30
ft from Brady. 


To my eye, the 1.8T is the way to go. 
But to my ear, the 2.3 20V NA wins without contest.

I have been looking at the '82 Coupe I have in the barn and been  thinking. 
It really needs more power and the only engine swap I have heard of is  a 
turbo motor from a 5000. I don't like that one because it always seems to 
lose  the A/C. What I am wondering about is either a 1.8T, or a Chevy 5 
cylinder. The  latter only because an adapter to Audi is available. 
 
Has anyone seen a conversion that "worked", besides the 5K?
