the 80Q also has twin exhausts, while the 4 cylinder cars have one fat
one.  i have kept close watch on these cars through the years and i
have never come across power differences between the 5 cylinder 10V
cars 1988 onwards.  in the 4000Q days, the 4000Q did have 5 bhp over
the coupe and fwd 5 bangers due to a freer flowing exhaust.
