My money would be on Koni.  Boge is almost unknown over here - at
least under that name.  But if you were on the European rally scene
any time between the late 1960s and quite recently - Koni were _THE_
people to talk to about shocks.  Period.

I would have no difficulty in believing that Audi went to Koni.
