I think there's a replacement part available from Audi called
a Audi 200 TQ :-)

Seriously, I have the same engine in my old '89 100Q, and there
isn't much of anything you can do with it. No chips, cam/exhaust
swaps are not much bang for $$$$$. Learn to drive it efficiently.

Ask someone who was behind me on the first Kanc Run.... :-)
