I've seen a few incidents over the last year or so that have given me cause to 
think.

The original ur-quattro (WR) engine's boost level was regulated by exhaust 
pressure vs the wastegate spring.  Boost level measurements gave a fair idea of 
turbo condition.

I believe that's intake pressure (boost) and not exhaust pressure, at least it is on my 85 ur-q. 
Early 5KTs used exhaust backpressure.....
