Hey guys:

Remember the thread going through over the last few days about the Euro
and/or Sport quattro setups with regard to the dumping of fuel at low revs
causing the rich mixture?  Will that party kindly repost it for Paul and
maybe expound upon it?  By the way, his car does have the Euro manifold, so
it has that "advantage".  My question is whether he can fix his problems by
adopting a U.S. ECU to his car.  

Don't know how much HP he's running with that setup, but when he found me
my '83 in CA and I went out there to get it, he blew me away big time on
freeway on-ramps.  (Yeah, I know...anything will blow 160 HP away....).

TIA,  

Steve
