Welcome - pics please
![]() I'd be surprised if a 'chip' would gain you 40bhp over standard, although a re-map might just manage it with some other mods like cat removal. Do you know who worked on it?

Manual box wasn't available at all in the UK, so any right hand drive cars with it have had a conversion job. Some left hookers have been converted too, but at least you can buy the parts off the shelf for them!
The manual wasn't a common option as far as I'm aware but I'm sure others with a more in depth knowledge will post in due course. Suspect if you're looking to sell you'll be best off sticking it on German ebay and see what interest you get

I've driven a manual D2 S8, and they're bloody awesome. A lot quicker than the Tiptronic one, I think it's a second quicker to 60 off the top of my head.
It won't be 400 BHP, you'll maybe get 15 or 20 BHP at a push from a good map. My standard D2 S8 made 313 BHP on the MRC dyno, that's about what they see usually, they commented they've not seen them make 360 whereas James' old car did 362 standard... Anyway, welcome to the forum. ![]()
