The tune for an auto trans. was milder & produced less boost because the trans. was weak & couldn't take a pounding.

not quite correct,,, 87-88 were detuned due to the weak a4ld, 83 to 86 all came with 155hp, autos used a c3 trans. the 87-88 5speeds came with 190hp.... and a innercooler, autos had 155hp
