Rob, I'm sorry that my emails came across as combative, I should have never
responded to a question I didn't really have the answers to.  I'm not very
familiar with European applications, so my bad for trying to come up with valid
answers.

I'd be happy to share any of me experience with you, please let me know if I
can help.

Best,

Javad

Javad,

     I appreciate your response here, and I'm not one to bear a grudge.

     However, please consider my point of view here, -  it should be
possible to share information without it getting into a competition, e.g.
people who have offered information in a helpful manner don't need to feel
they've been trumped if someone then supplies better,  more accurate info.
Similarly someone who has provided later, more accurate info. shouldn't have
to deal with a succession of mails from someone who gets stuck in a
defensive rut. People don't have to get 'bent' by interaction, and every
heavywieght worth their salt knows that they should pull punches unless
they're in the ring.

   Again I'm not saying this to provoke, I'm attempting to promote an ideal.

   Now I wouldn't describe myself as an ego-less character by any means, and
while I'm pretty careful to stick to the facts on car lists, I don't mind
being proved wrong, but I find comments like "Is this good logic??" a bit
provocative, (call me sensitive but that's at least one query mark too many)
so I'm sure you can understand the tone of my last e-mails on the topic
being a bit below the standard I set myself.

  So, I'll apologise about the bit about 'know-all competitions' as in the
past I've seen that you're normally a helpful and enthusiastic lister. It's
wasn't at all a comment that applies to you. I have noticed your ding-dongs
with Mihnea, and I thought that you conducted yourself well, but I suspected
that you were getting trenchant and combative with me due to the fact that
my info on the KV was on the back of some from Mihnea, and that in some
paranoid fashion you thought I must be siding with him. Rest assured that is
not the case. I happen to own a KV engined car, thus had a selfish interest
in the issue. I have a manual,  I opened it and shared what I found. I have
no interest in any discussions of yours and Minhea's.

Please rest assured that I admire and take close interest in the progress
you've made with your tq project and no doubt if I eventually get a turbo
I'll be glad for any advice you have.

As far as Phil not having the base timing for his KV, - see my first post
;)

No worries,
Cheers,

rob
