    Its not a turbo but it DEFINATELY has a supercharger, you can see it on the passenger side of the engine at the top normally where the injector cooling fan sits, maybe thats what he means

            For some strange reason either Audi or the DVLA registered some non S2 coupes as Audi Coupe Turbos, I've had one before and thats what is stated on the log book.

                I've also seen an ebay auction where they stated they had it changed to turbo on the logbook because it wasn't right

                    My 10v CQ is definitely not listed as a turbo - I love the way this guy keeps saying yeah thanks, and continues to advertise as a turbo even when he's been told about half a dozen times...

                        Er no, its a standard KV engine. No turbo or supercharger. You can tell because the hose goes straight from the metering head to the inlet manifold with standard airbox.

                          Its frightening that these people exist... He probably thinks its 'a turbo' cos someone stuck a turbo badge on it... I'll wager this muppet has never seen a turbo nor has any clue of its purpose. Very funny.
