Re: upgrading my turbo t20 ->

Did you already try searching with google? Since the current search engine on this site misses a lot of information.

Re: Turbos, the very first ones (where are they? - part 2)

Which country/ language catalogue is it?

The 1988 brochures I have, show the 1x1000 rpm counter.

I cannot believe such detail was that important for the potential 480 owner ;)

Re: Turbos, the very first ones (where are they? - part 2)

Well, I think the introduction of the Turbo was in the end of 1987 so I would think that dealers will take orders from that point in time. An a wait list of at least two months doesn''t sound plausible.
