My 83 300D - BRABUS - 10-14-2010
Hello
Here is a little info about my car.
I bought it for 800$ for 6months ago, only thing i needed to change was front brake calipers and handbrake wires.
Things that I have done:
Dropped it 2rings in the front(will drop it in the rear when i get my new rear shocks)
Melber 8x16 et11 rims
with 205/55 16Boost and EGT gauges.
and a little stereo and other smal things.
The engine is a om617 NON turbo with a turbo innlet/exhaust manifold, fitted with a holseth hx40g with exhaust housing 13.
The IP is a standar M pump, that is tuned up max.
Also have a custom built vacuum modulator for harder shifting over 20% throttle. Transmisson is a 722.4
Also have a custom 3" down pipe and 3" exhaust with 1 little rear "silencer"
The car is going to be a "daily driver"(yeah right
)Here is some pics of the car and the engine.

And i little video that show Boost thru 1 2 3 gear.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YaykpYKZxig
max boost is 0.8bar i 1 2 3 gear
Plans:
Just bought a om617 turbo that im going to build up with new internals, h beam rods, regrinded camshaft, double valve spring and ported innlet and exhaust channels in the head.
IP for the new engine is a M with BIGGER elements and another camshaft.
Going to use a 722.4 or some chevy transmisson with the new engine.
Drivetrain is possible gonna be w126 or maybe a chevy rear axel, time will show
But this is my second project, so its not 1priority
This is my 1priority
A 98mod E230 Turbo. Unless the body there is almost nothing oem left on the car, custom aem fuel/ignition controller, c230kompressor engine with all custom internals. T3/4 stage 3, external wastegate, lsd rear axel, and so on

RE: My 83 300D - garage - 10-14-2010
Nice car i like it alot!, did you black out the rear end like that? I painted mine black like that, and i REALLY liked the way it looks, but it was crappy paint so i took it off.
How long have you had the turbo on the N/A engine?
The new camshaft for your IP, is that gonna be a new custom one? or out of another model??
The e230 is gorgeous!

The turbo has been on for 4months without any problem.
The new camshaft for the IP is from another model,

Still havent heard from the drunk guy that told me about the cam shaft for the IP, but hope to hear from him soon...
Made these today, will use them to make exhaust manifold flanges.

Looks good! That sounds familiar!
I have had to send my camera in a few times after I got oil in the lens and such.

It's beautiful! I love champagne metallic, especially with the meashies...

Gonna take out the valves and the pre chamber tomorrow and start grinding the in and outlet in the head. And match grind the flange to the new size of the in and outlet´s in the head.

Hi
The current engine thats in the car now with turbo is a non turbo engine
Runinng 14PSI boost and not leaning out.
Still rattles like it was new, i have drived 10000km with turbo.
And when i mounted the turbo on this non turbo engine, the engine had 667000km on it
Dont know why everybody says that turbo charging a non turbo is so bad, it have worked fine for me and my gas pedal is floored 90% of the time i drive it.
The head im modifying is from a turbo engine thats under total rebuild
I hope i get at least 350hp.
RE: My 83 300D - mike-81-240d - 12-28-2010
WOW over 414,000 miles. Looks great. Sounds like a good horsepower gain over stock.
RE: My 83 300D - Captain America - 12-30-2010
Awesome, I really want to see how the Header turns out.
RE: My 83 300D - BRABUS - 12-30-2010
Will post pics when i start the header.
Had the head in a part washer at a friends shop today, so tommorow i can start with the inn and outlets
also installed a new gauge pod with 3 gauge instead of 2, the gauges is boost,egt,oil temp(transmission)

RE: My 83 300D - Biohazard - 01-04-2011
Keep up the good work! I'm contemplating building a header as well, looking forward to seeing how yours goes.
RE: My 83 300D - BRABUS - 01-04-2011
Thanks!
Started with the head today, grinded and smoothed the exhaust channels.
Will polish them tomorrow, and start with the inlet channels.
My header will me pretty easy made, with equal length 20-23" long runners.
But it will work for my goal without a problem.
RE: My 83 300D - willbhere4u - 01-04-2011
I wouldn't polish them smooth they flow better being little ruff! think like a golf ball!
If it's polished smooth it hurts the flow!
I use to flow bench race heads and the best one's where about as ruff as 1000 grit sand paper!
RE: My 83 300D - BRABUS - 01-05-2011
I know willbhere4u.
Maybe polish was the wrong word to use, but lets say im going to fine grind/port them. Will post pics so u know what i mean
RE: My 83 300D - willbhere4u - 01-05-2011
Good work we need to get you one of the high flow long runner intake manifolds
RE: My 83 300D - BRABUS - 01-05-2011
willbhere4u - Im looking for one those 115 300d intake?. I guess it that you mean?
Pretty hard to find one like that in my country, so if someone got a spare one? please pm me

RE: My 83 300D - dieselboy - 01-13-2011
Nice! What rpm were you getting boost at with the hx40? I get full boost at 2800 with the hx35.
Don't let forced see... He will tell you that turbo is way too big and all it will do is surge.... Hahaha
I'm looking forward to this.

Hi
I got full boost(10psi) at around 3000rpm in first and second gear, in third and fourth i get 14psi around 3000rpm. But its a non turbo IP, so thats why it slow spooled right now. But i still havent heard the turbo surged
A friend of mine in sweden have a om617 with 8mm IP, hx35, big mofo intercooler and propane injection, he have around 30psi at 3500rpm in first gear, second third and fourth he have 40-42 psi of boost. (oem exhaust manifold)
He is upgrading to an hx40 as we speak, trying to burn all fuel

Don't let forced see... He will tell you that turbo is way too big and all it will do is surge.... Hahaha
I'm looking forward to this.

Ohh I have a hx40 in my garage that I can use if the 35 won't burn my fuel. I ordered some 10mm elements that should be here next month.
I was goin to use the hx40 on my built Volvo T5 that I'm putting in my 242 but we will see where that goes now lol.

Go for the hx40
My volvo friends use hx40 on all their engines B230fk/ft b234ft and so on. we even got a tubeframe dragster with a volvo b20 with at hx55 making 800hp
RE: My 83 300D - dieselboy - 01-13-2011
Nice! I'm Pulling the b234 out of the 242 and putting it in the amazon and putting the whiteblock into the 242. I hope to have it in there and running before may.
So what's it cost for you to ship me a headlight setup?...
