Hi,

What do you reckon would be the max power that can achieved with 7 mm elements on a stock om602 (appart from turbo set to about 15 psi)?

Currently with 1 1/4 turns on the full load and 5700 rpm max engine speed (pulls strongly to about 5000 rpm) I reach 1250 F at about 140 kph in 3rd at about 5000 rpm flat out. Though I need shorter bursts of power like 0-50 mph for quick pull off and 60 - 80 mph for highway.

The car is no slouch with the lpg injection, but want to keep it diesel only.

1992 Mercedes 190D 2.5 turbo 5sp manual. EGT+boost gauges. Boost controller set to ~14.5 psi. 1 1/4 turns on full load adjustment. LPG injection.

Larger elements will inject the same amount of fuel in shorter time. I don't know how much the difference will be but it should run more efficiently and cooler.

How much power can I get from 15 psi worth of air? I know the answer is far more complicated as it depends on many factors, but roughly speaking.

Roughly, I'd bet 140-150hp since the engine already makes 120 on 12psi.
