 We had one on the UK quattro Owners Club stand at Coy's last August.  Not a 
 very interesting vehicle from an engineering point of view.

Hmmmm....  Not sure I agree, Phil.  315hp from a 20v turbo that normally runs
217 sounds like a pretty good jump to me for the same size motor.  I might
ask, what did you observe as the difference that wasn't impressive?  From an
engineering point of view, one might look right to the porsche spec kkk turbo
that resides at the exhaust manifold (they even tagged the turbo incorrectly,
intentionally).  There are a couple of them in this tweekers toys for good
reason.  The intake manifold is a place to get the "e" point of view too.
 Serious study of this vehicle should be made by anyone that is tweeking an
audi.  Same can be said of the sport q as well.
