If anyone has any for sale, in good condition, please let me know. Thanks!

Racetune in Hayward, California works with some pretty serious turbo'ed cars, and can make custom manifolds, intercoolers, etc. However, they aren't cheap. http://www.racetune.net Mauri, what are the disadvantages of an intercooler that doesn't have a ribbed core? I suppose it doesn't cool the air a...

It's good to know that the stock 722.3 automatic transmission can handle the power increase.

But won't the stock diffential will break if you do too many 1-wheel burnouts?

Hey all, I am trying to build a superdiesel, and I plan on gettting an HX-40, but what ic should i get, and how can i get the fuel pump the way i need it? I saw someone had a custom header, do i need that? can my exhaust shop make it? What else do I need? Thanks, I know about these engines, but I d...

Do you think that the stock turbo is too small and creates too much exhaust pressure for 200-250bhp? By the way, how much are HX40's in Finland? They are popular in the US among the Dodge Ram Cummins turbo diesel tuners, and I've seen them selling for around $600-$1000 US dollars... :( Say, maybe AM...

Hello all, I was wondering about upgrading the small stock turbo to something larger (although I have no immediate plans for that, I am still curious!) :D If I am aiming for 200-250hp, is it really necessary to have a huge Holset HX40? What other turbochargers do you recommend as a good upgrade from...

Here's some good info on that, from some English MB forums: http://buymbparts.com/forum/showthread.php?t=159 http://www.mercedesshop.com/shopforum/showthread.php3?t=105726&page=3&pp=15 http://www.mercedesshop.com/shopforum/showthread.php3?t=108626&page=3&pp=15 http://www.mercedesshop...

Hi Mauri, The diesel pump shops around here aren't familiar with modifying Mercedes Benz pumps for more 3-400bhp, so if I were to consider redoing the pump, sending it to Mynä Diesel is probably the way to go. How much does that type of work cost? Also, how much does it cost (in Finland) to custom-f...

No smog inspection is required for 1987 diesels... so a SuperTurbo would be legal. :shock: They are strict here, but this concerns mostly gasoline vehicles. It's just expensive to get the work done in the US. A high quality custom fabrication of intake and exhaust manifolds will be around $1000, not...

...If you don't count 300 SDL/350 SD/L's. Although I wouldn't tune the latter one up at all :? . Oh yes, I forgot about the 350... the disaster motor. Anyway, back to the topic of intercooling... :D So far I've only heard of one person intercooling an OM617 in the US. You can read about and see pho...

Hello from California, Please forgive me - I'm sure this topic has been covered many times, but I cannot find a good online translation from Finnish to English! Mersuforum.net seems to have gained international fame – mostly thanks to our turbo section. Could this be our new Nokia? :mrgreen: I just...

Hello everyone, Thank you all for the replies! My car is a 1987 300D Turbo. Here are some photos of my car: http://w124.f0e.net/car1.jpg http://w124.f0e.net/car2.jpg The USA model OM603.960 engine has a very different exhaust manifold from the European model, as you can see in the photo below: http:...

Hello from California, Unfortunately I do not speak Finnish, although I do listen to the Bomfunk MC's. :D Anyway, I am looking to get a small power increase from my W124 300D Turbo - at the moment I want to keep the stock turbocharger and stock exhaust system, and only do some slight modifications t...
