Oh, I see. Still a nice vehicle with the additional lights.

edit: And quite rare, with the new front and the old wheels!

Hi pda!

Nice car...but to answer your "timing" question: I `ve got no idea...sorry! The B202turbos from Heuschmid have 16° BTDC, but this won`t help you with a B201tu-engine.

As you mentioned, Mr. Heuschmid didn`t answer your 3-week-ago-fax: this seems to be normal for him. I heard from several people, that Mr. Heuschmid für sure might be a good "technican", but isn`t good in "positive-customer-relations" or marketing. He goes his -very often- strange own way... cope with this or help yourself ;-)

One example for Heuschmid`s habbits in treating customers: about one year ago, we had a big Saab-Meeting in Kempten, Bavaria, where Heuschmid also had a small "presentation" where he told the Saab-fans, "Heuschmid-Tuning" will soon be back on track with parts und service for classic and mordern saabs. On this meeting, you could take part in a little competition and win several Heuschmid-items (e.g. a set of rims, lowering-springs, sports-exhaust...). Just ask the lucky winners in this forum, who already recieved the won parts from HS-Tuning...as far as I know, no one did yet.

cheers boys,

glad you liked the T8, I`ll have to wait & see if Johann Heuschmid replies to my Fax`s....
as for timing I will try & advance it to see if it improves...
I think I will have to do my own R & D on the timing...
ie adjust drive,adjust drive.... to see the best results..

many thanks Paul

p.s. you liked the new grille then

Hi Paul

Nice car dude! But i wonder how the old Inca-style wheels fit on the car?
Does your cars have the former axles? Must be a very early car with slant front.

@Kevin:

Old axle (handbrake on the front) till MY 1987.
Slant Front from MY 1987.
So you see, there is one year overlap. Nothing super-rare... :daumenhoch:

hy paul ,
great car :daumenhoch: . but i have to say i prefere the grille on picture "t8.jpeg" to the grille on the first picture . besides this little detail it`s a a real pretty car , i especially like the the additional lights , to my mind they match the car quite well .

greetings :bekloppt: from germany , Alex

Good Morning, Gerd/Fritz/Till!

The "Grundladedruck (brrr)" is called baseboost in englisch... :lol:
