What gear ratio are you thinking about going to?

300D NA is 3:46
300D Turbo 82 - 84 3:07
300D Turbo 85 2:88

Your 240D uses a 3:69

Change the Differential to a different ratio, then you will need to change the speedometer
from the vehicle you acquired the diff.
The Spedo`s are geared to the differential.

Iam using a 3:58 out of a 280E. It`s a 3% decrease in RPM`s.

Anyone that thinks a 240D is slow drives too fast.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
