My 2p worth......
FVD Brombacher never built twin plug Motronic 5.2 engines so the ECU program which was procured through him was likely from Gunther Mandl who worked mainly for Pietz (TTP) at the time and specialized in the electronics side and did the electronics for the well documented 993tt with 600hp twin plug motor which had a claimed 600hp but ran numbers of about 530hp

The only other Motronic 5.2 tuners for twin plug AFAIK were RS Tuning and Protomotive although Protomotive could not work the boost control functions and used fixed boost controllers.
The Andial 3.8 with this ECU program would likely to be in the 530-550hp range and I seem to remember the acceleration numbers we saw verified this.
The intercooler guage, (Davtron manufactured) is a neat piece but unfortunately its refresh rate is too slow for accurately seeing IATs, it simply can't keep up with the changing IATs when compared to the actual numbers read through a Bosch Hammer eg.
