Really?? The book says 11/85 (or 12/85 I don't have it in front of me).
Huh... Must be that Fuchengruven VAG thing; sticklers for detail, don't
you know. Wait a minute... maybe the difference is Quattro turbo vs.
Non-Q turbo. Maybe the 86 Q's are G60's after 11/85, and not the non-q
turbos. Anybody know??
BTW Eugene, I bet you find panic stops at 60mph an up really sporting.
After the QLCC mod, I realized my car was _seriously_ underbraked.
Oh, and Eugene, I applaud your choice in cars :-)
