[V8] V8 Engine Motronic Management

[Buchholz, Steven]

Yes, I understand that the V8 was used in S4s in other parts of the world.
My point was that I don't believe this manual was intended to document such
vehicles ... there is no mention of an ABH engine in anything other than a
V8 Quattro.  

... gears?  What do you mean?  I suppose I'm 1.2 liters short in toto, but
my 16 cylinders include ten of them ... ;-)

Yes, I know that the ABH equipped MT V8Qs have 6-speeds ... which means I'm
1.2 liters and 2 gears short of the ideal ... 

I wonder how much lighter an urS4 is as compared to a V8 ... my quick check
of the AW site showed that the '92 US S4 was within the weight difference of
the engines of my '91 V8 (the site didn't have the weight figures for the
ABH-equipped models).
