86-88 is S4
89-92 is S5
you have a S5. The mileage doesn't matter as much. Its all how the car was driven, and whether or not it was properly maintained.

OK then. So you've made 164 posts since you registered in Aug., and not one of them has been even remotely useful, nor even readable.
And people wonder why the members with the knowledge are leaving this forum in herds...
Since you are above common courtesy, I will not be answering any more of your questions. I urge others to do the same.

Ha ha, Aaron, you are snappy! I agree that this guy posts like an idiot with writing skills that I had when I was in the first grade, but puuuuulllleeezzzeee! Just ignore him. Think like the Buddha. There is no weakness like anger 
I like your turbo N/A. If I can't find a cheap supercharger I may just do the turbo conversion myself, but then I will have to mess with wastegates, blowoff valves, intercoolers, a new ECU . . .

I think it is because I am Turbo-Illiterate!!!
One crazy idea I have it to take a turbo impellor, you know, cut it from the exhaust fan (if that is even what it is called), gear it somehow for 1:20ish, put a pulley on it and house it all for the intake piping to the surge tank.. Viola! A homebuilt centrifugal supercharger.
I really like the simplicity and lower intake temps possible with supercharging. I want to see this Tesla supercharger get produced but not using an electric motor like the guy originally proposed. If it had a conventional belt drive and sold for $1000ish for the kit, I would be all over it
