M-TDI pump source

[vintagemotion]

I found a source in North Carolina for rebuild / converted M-TDI pumps at a relatively low price. Does anyone have experience with M-TDI pumps from this company?

Some times their stuff can be okay, if you are prepared to have chinese made parts. If you want real quality check out: http://www.performancediesel.ca/.

You get what you pay for. Chinese parts and pumps not tested on an actual engine. All the bench testing in the world doesn't mean a thing on an m-TDI pump. I build mine from all German parts (starting with NEW pumps) and test/set up them on an actual m-TDI van - that's why mine cost more and perform.

Oh - 'dieselvw' uses 1.6 and 1.9 TD pumps as his base. These have a smaller (prone to breakage) shaft, and throttle that is very limiting to performance.

A little OT but.... Karl, any word on when you will have pumps available again?
