[urq] A2 Rally FI

[Brandon Rogers]

so did this car have an airflow meter/plate?  It looks like the FD is over close to the firewall in front of the driver and I don't see how an ariflow plate ala CIS would work over there....   Or did Pierburg skip the air plate and measure air some other way?? 

all very interesting I think.

I'm no history buff on this stuff, but the article said it went from
Pierburg mechanical on the A1 to Motronic on the A2....

    Yes, 911 turbo used CIS all the way to the monster 3.6 (0-60 in shade

I was shocked when I founf that out...

If you want to split hairs though, ovlov P1800 used a fuel injection
      (driven
  by the dizzy) back in early 70's.

One reason for Audi to use CIS might be contract restriction from Bosch.
Or that it was simply reliable and ran clean enough to pass emissions.

Anyone else?

Guys-
was re-reading the Motorsport Magazine from ~December that featured Stig
Blomquist re-visiting some of his past cars - including the quattro A2
      ( His
  favorite!), SQ, RS200, ...others.  Anyway in their mentioned that one of
      the
  changes to the car in A2 form A1 form was the introduction of Motronic.
      I
  found this interesting because I've always wondered why it took Audi so
      long
  to shift production cars to Motronic from CIS.  BMW was using Motronic in
the mid 80's.  Then recently I read that a Porsche Turbo as late as the
      90's
  still used CIS ( 1994 3.6 single turbo???)

Anyway--thoughts???
