Turbo Scirocco

[jmair at urbanout.com (Joe Mair)]

How the hell did you waste gate get stuck open?  Didja fix it yet?
Curious as to what the problem was.

I suppose if Corrados are a pain to move around with an NA 1.8, that A4
must've been no fun whatsoever.  If a Corrado is overweight, an A4
Quattro is flat out obese!

Yes, they are and apparently the G60 supercharger is both unreliable and
expensive from what I hear.
So, companies do make turbo conversion kits for the Corrado so you can
still haul around its mass tonnage with a 1.8L 8V.

BTW, drove my Audi A4 1.8T yesterday with the wastegate stuck open. With
no boost that car is slower than Dan Snow's diesel Scirocco.
And 5 times harder to work on!
