Seems there are differing opinions on the engine output: the owner's manual
for the '88 model 80 quattro in question car states the output is 130hp.  It
would be nice if the 90Q has a higher output because this implies a "factory
spec" upgrade path - fueled by an appropriate level of $, of course!

I'll snoop around Bently-land today and see what their spec's say.

Thanks for all the input.
