[s-cars] Misleading BPV info

All,
Well, I've met the enemy, and it is me.  In my recent BPV endeavors, I've
been playing with 3 cars; my 200 20v, my and a friends S4s.  In each one of those
cars, the BPVs were installed backwards to begin with.  As a result of my
various forms of testing, I had arrived at the conclusion that they would be more
effective installed the other way (imagine that... install them as
designed!).  Bob Rossato was nice enough to forward me this link, which shows the BPV
installed as it should be, rather than "backwards" as I was calling it:

Bottom line: what I was calling "backwards" was really just installed
correctly.  I was just unfortunate enough to have 3 cars with the installs botched in
the first place, and made the assumption that they were correct.  I still
think the Sport Quattro version of the Bosch BPV works the best of what I've
tried (0 280 142 102).
Anyway, sorry for the misinfo...
