If the car has been modded (seeing it has a dtm airbox and inlet etc) the car may be able to rev higher.

It is, complete with the totally obsolete flatslides.

I remember reading on that forum about someone how knew someone
working at VDO and got his tacho recalibrated for nothing. A friend helping out
a friend, you know. Cost him a crate of beer or so...
Other guys wanted this mod too (understandably !!) and checked at VDO :
the cost was enormous and they were not very interested.

I'm sure Frank or Chris can tell more about this as they are key-members
of the W201-16v.de forum.

if that is a dtm engine it will pushing 437bhp @10,000 rpm screamer
i doubt that will be pushing that much as i think the inlets and mainfold are dtm
still i wouldnt mind that.
