What does the G92 package include on an 88 Formula.

I did a search for G92 and didn't find what I was looking for.
My 88 Formula 305TPI A4 has the 3.23 rear which is part of the G92 package according to the tech data. Just wondering what else comes with it as I have no RPO codes for this car.
It does have the N64 Aluminum Spare which is brand new and never used, still has the can of air and the jack.

other options the car has.
A/C, Power Windows, Power Locks, Power Hatch with button on the dash, cruise control (and it works too. ), delay wipers, T-Tops, and 140mph Speedo.

In 1988 G92 should include the 140mph speedo, G80 limited slip, J65 4 wheel discs, 3.27 9 bolt rear and oil cooler (KC4) and 3" cat - 3" intermediate pipe. That's generally what the package consisted of. N64 aluminum wheel and JG1 aluminum driveshaft were kind of things that were tossed in when the package was ordered, and generally they only showed up on GTA's and Formula's.

I'll see what I can dig up. Need to check the car over and see what I do and don't have.

IIRC 88 was the last year you could get G92 on an auto car. Although I am thinking that the oil cooler and 9 bolt are exclusive to the 5-speed. Zephyr maybe you can verify this by checking out if there is a metal disc between your oil filter and engine block with metal lines running to it.

Like I said JG1 and N64 were just kind of 'toss in' options that were sometimes associated with G92 on Formula's and GTA's.

I found an 88 Formula in the j/y once. Had rear discs, aluminum spare and driveshaft, pwr everything, auto and t-tops. Couldn't tell if it was the 350 or 305 motor tho--but was a tpi motor. Also had the 140 speedo(exhaust was missing too). Could've bought it for $2000 3 yrs ago(all together of course).
Think this car had the G92 option? Car was nice except for the quarter. Car's interior was MINT except for the driver seat.

Sounds like a G92. Did it have 'Formula' on the side or 'Formula 350' on the side of the car?

Think it said just Formula on the door--so that would've made it a 305 motor. I ripped the rpo sticker out of it-but threw it away last year. I did post the #'s on a post awhile ago tho.
