OM617 turbo achievable torque levels? - scout2000 - 10-17-2013

I have spent a lot of time going through the archives, and I have see quite a few similar post indicating that 170-200 hp is possible (depending on who's post you believe) after the typical low hanging fruit, including:

M injector pump from N/A 617 massaged by dieselmeken - $$$$
intercooler
EGR block off
etc.........

It seems from what I have read, the stock torque levels for this engine are around 170 fl-lbs.

For those of you who have actually jumped through these hoops, at least the M IP redone by dieselmeken, what kind of torque figures are you seeing?

Also, when researching this question, I did come across this post which suggest possible torque levels, but nothing solid is provided.

Ask member JTY he has a big pump, head work, and gorgeous manifolds.

Potential? At 700NM the crank will go.
