Newbie Mercedes 190D - Globy - 02-28-2012

Hi to everyone I'm new to this kind of things so take easy on me! Tongue

I'm 22 years old and have a beautiful Mercedes 190D ( post pics later), and love the car, and sometimes my friends tend to joke with me Dodgy

, they just don't understand!
Well, cuting the talking, I want to ask you Diesel experts and to all of you, what improvements can I do with my humble diesel 4 cylinder, without engine collapse, just a little bit more power if it possible.

I'll wait from you....

Thanks
David

Slap a turbo on it. Between that and adjusting the pump yourself you should get a little more power.

If you have the cash you can slap an upgraded pump on it too, that would get alot more power.

Thanks,
but I think slaping a turbo it will melt down the pistons? or pretty soon engine failure??what is the expected lifetime?
How can I upgrade the pump?

RE: Newbie Mercedes 190D - yankneck696 - 02-28-2012

Putting a turbo actually can prolong the life of the engine due to pumping more air & making a leaner ratio, that lowers the EGT (Exhaust Gas Temp)... It will also clear up any black smoke (un burnt fuel). A small turbo & up to 10 PSI boost combined with tweaking the IP will give you some good power & still give good longevity to the engine.

Could you explain a little better as I'm not following.
Because since we are getting more air/fuel meaning more power then we reaise the temperature??Am I wrong?

Thanks already talked to him.

RE: Newbie Mercedes 190D - willbhere4u - 02-29-2012

Adding air to a diesel lowers the temps by leaning it out / adding fuel raise the temps if you keep it under 10psi and tweak the stock injection pump it should not get any hotter than with out a turbo

RE: Newbie Mercedes 190D - Globy - 03-02-2012

Thanks,

How can I tune my pump, before installing a turbo? any DIY?

RE: Newbie Mercedes 190D - Globy - 03-03-2012

Thanks, I didn't Know that the 190D/250D/300D were identical.

RE: Newbie Mercedes 190D - Alastair E - 03-03-2012

Well--The basic engine series is the same between 190D/250D/300D, but there are many differences!

This is my lovely baby! Tongue

RE: Newbie Mercedes 190D - barrote - 03-11-2012

hy there,
tb sou de lisboa, qualquer duvida sobre esse tuning grita!
the best u can do is finding a 602 td engine and from that on u can go racing to your friends as well belive me they will be amazed "with tractor fuel" power hehe.
but with this 601 engine that´s not much u can do they tend to be weak, but anyway as other members write above turbo it and u can get 100hp without to much damage expected.
In my case i have one 124 with 605 engine and i´m pursuing 300hp.
regards
