To be honest with you, I don't know for sure, but I can tell you that is has 
an Abt placard on it just above the Bosch placard that is riveted onto the 
fuel distributor. Abt may have done some internal modifications to the F/D. There 
are no part number(s) on the Abt placard/sticker but the Bosch placard reads: 
0 438 100 098. For reference, the Bosch P/N on my UrQuattro F/D reads: 0 438 
100 123. It might be my eyes playing tricks, but the Abt F/D that is sitting 
on my desk as I type this, looks beefier than the one I just looked at on my 
Ury. Anyone have any concrete info on what Abt did to these cars?
