Hello everyone! :D rodion, long time no see! How's everything? Well, i installed a 250 20v Turbo engine ... 4 or 5 months ago :) I'm runing near 250hp ( 247.8hp ) with a VNT23 turbo. My injection pump was modified in Portugal ... but for more horsepower i must get a new turbo, new injection pump mod...

Very nice! was it difficult to install the OM606?

Regards from Portugal

Thank you all

for the wheels, they are 7.5x17" EVOII wheels Go to a Mercedez Benz dealer near you.

As for Finland, how much times does it takes to do the pump mods? maybe i'll go a week or so

really?
with who can i talk to be my "proxy" between Portugal and Myna-Diesel?

Well, hello there. The project went okay ... but not completed yet ... The engine is not installed due to various factors. Although the car is very different Before: http://img126.imageshack.us/img126/9472/carro25el.jpg http://img126.imageshack.us/img126/5289/carro13fd.jpg http://img236.imageshack.u...

sure you did! it's nice to see a different tuning style to the W201 like we talked on the MSN

So big turbos are the way to go ... For example, i have a Mercedes 190 and i'm getting a new engine. These are my possibilities 2.500 TD 20v 2.500 TD 10v 3.000 TD 12v From these tree i must pick one up that will be my daily drive car. I want more power, yes, but what do you think is the best engine ...

So, did you already tried it? Using a Garret VNT22 or 25 for example? @ 1000rpm starts boosting, with max boost around 2000, 2500rpm. my question is because i'm "afraid" the holset hx40 turbo just makes the car too "hardcore" ... give me your feedback about it... is it progressiv...

i did have knowledge of this forum by the forum of Mercede Shop

Ok, my project will be starting this month!

Many thanks to all ...

Well, after talking with Mauri i had an idea of getting a 5 speed getrag transmition and a lsd from a 2.5/2.3 16v. My questions is this: With the application of both parts will i have any kind of problems with the speed error? I changed the trans of my 190D last year... it had a 4th gear trans and i...

Nice! :) For this the best 17s yes? i was going on 16s but with 300HP, 350HP or whatever, i better stick it on the ground! In winter, there in Finland you have the snow/ice problem no? This is in Portugal, it seems it's summer, but it's cold ... just how a good diesel with turbo and intercooler like...

One question to you guys :


Is your car with 300HP and more are easy to use? for example in mountain road ... car we have fun with it or is it too hard to control?

just one thing, for the 250TD 20v i have no eletronics, so the car will be mechanical injection.
