I have a letter from Audi confirming that the 2.3L NG code motor (130hp) was
indeed installed by the factory in most late-production '87 4kqs built after
February of 1987 ... I assume this would include some if not all of the last
1000 cars made and this is most definitely a performance mod.

BTW, Maureen Petrucci of Audi's Customer Relations department deserves kudos
for her efforts in tracking down the documentation to verify this.  This was
for a (now shelved) racing project and I needed something in writing to keep
the protest comittee happy in the event I was ever protested for putting one
of these in my '81 4k 5+5.  Now that I've decided to build an EP car instead
of DSP (two different SCCA Solo II classes), it doesn't matter...
