Hey i just realised this?

Looking at your Car point site..not completly right through.

but, that is the Hartge Engine right?? so that is Euro spec 3.5 with the higher Comp pistons yeh?

yet most of the TCD packages seem to be going on the Low comp US motors with only 184bhp

Have you changed pistons? same engine.....Or shold i just keep reading through your site?

Go to page 9. The HC M30 block (not Hartge) is gone and I am using a M106 8:1 CR turbo block. Keep reading, lots of good info there.

Absolutely amazing Duke! Love all the documentation. Please keep it up as I am sure we are all learning a great deal!

Who will be tuning your TEC3? Is this something youll be doing yourself? We have Vic Sias here in the SF Bay Area and apparently he is the man with the TEC3s!

Me, me and just me..............................will welcome a phone life line. I have a base line BIN file from Henry from a turbo M30 that I will start with.
There is a shop near Frankfurt that is a TEC3 dealer. I hope to get the car running well and engine broken in before I take it to them for final tuning. I hope they have a dyno.

Have you ever looked at using a M10 uppertiming cover? As soon as I can find on I am going to see if it can be used as a distributor delete.

Since there are so many similarities between the M10 and M30 is it just a thought.

That would be the $hit. Let me know Dave. Very cool.

I just checked my ETK and it looks very promising!
