Raimund,
Anyone ever tell you that you are very sick?  I think in order to get rid of
this sickness you need to give the completed project to me!  ;-)

Seriously - that's one heck of a project and it should be a very beautiful
site to see and drive when you are finished.  Next time I am in the Bremen
area, I'm buying the beer!

The tiptronics are electronically controlled and depend on their
respective engine ECUs. So the Tiptronics only work with a 911 engine.
Happy converting :-)

I am finishing my Vanagon conversion (Audi V6 TDI Tiptronic) at the
monment.
You can see a photo album on my old website
http://kfz.freepage.de/rfeussner, where the V6 gas conversion is no
longer uptodate.
