Just a historical perspective, what's more telling is why audi used the 
scroll to feed the turbo.  Nothing really to do with the 10vt at all.

Sorry, Scott.  I missed seeing this email in my weekly pile.

I'm not familiar with the 10VT engine, so I have never given your
question any previous thought.  As you know, the A'pexi controls the top
of the WG.  As for why Audi would control the WG bottom differently
between the two cars, I can only guess it was to be able to hold the WG
open when the throttle was closed or closing.
