[V8] Steering rack, servotronic or no?

99% chance its not - since its a 90 model. - servotronic racks have an 
electrical connector to the gearbox head on the rack.

The boot was cut the last time we looked at it, and I guess that's all she wrote.  Also, who sells them the cheapest?  Is it a good idea to let someone who doesn't work on Audis do this job?
