RE: MC Engine that lacks a Turbo Filter

[Aleksander Mierzwa <alex@matrix.com.pl>]

As far as I know, all US spec MC engines had single filter setup. Some
early European MC models had dual filter setup. Factory parts CD-ROM for
87 200 turbo shows both single and dual filter setup.

91 mountain bike (just in case both cars broke at the same time :-)
