Mercedes diesel in 240z

why not an OM617? you lose a cylinder and about 40 horses but you can make it do this....

... if im not mistaken If i remember correctly it has a modified IP and a holset turbo from a cummings TD

[MAG58]

That's what is in the 240D. Unless you get an 85+ 240D, then it's an OM602. Both are great engines.

 

I will be the first one to congratulate you if you can kill one.

 

Just get a Myna modified pump (what that youtube video had most likely) and your choice of holset and it should scare you senseless.

Ask my sister, she ran one with half a quart of oil for a year, before she put it into a wall.

how complex are the pistons inside the IP? we have a 3-axis Fadal here at school, and a handful of CNC lathes. I know calibrating the pump is where the difficulty comes in, but if i can grab a handful of IP's from a junkyard i can always try trial and error of modding it myself. I know these things are like clock work but im a bit hesitant to fork over more than a grand over to Finland for an IP.

I honestly have no Idea. I know that the euro pumps are different than our pumps and are more easy to modify, but past that I haven't really looked into this whole pump jazz. I do know that if you start up a pump company in the states there is some money to be had.

.....In a week or so I might PM you for an address to send a large box

 

 

 

and on that vein, what IPs would be *most* useful to have pulled apart and modded?

[MAG58]

From a bit of superturbo searching, you want to find the Euro pumps, I believe they're called the M-pumps as they are easier to upgrade from the stock 5.5mm opening/barrel.

i think myna-diesel is the finland based company that mods them?

and based on this it can be found on the OM602/3 Americans since it only lists the OM61x (i.e. OM617) being on the "european" models... I'll keep looking for more info. I would really love to see what makes these things tick.
