intake manifold
intake manifold
basically blocks off the square hole where the charge pipe bolted up
then cuts a hole in the opposite side of the plenum
and weld in a section of aluminum pipe or tube.. pretty simple to do..

but what about using the normally aspirated intake manifold for the OM603 ?
they are not very plentiful here in the states, and one would have to build a pressure capable plunum to replace the air filter box..

but then with all that work in making a plenum I could just make one from scratch
not unlike this one:

adds even more work as they all have to be changed
maybe not such a good idea

oel_brenner but what about using the normally aspirated intake manifold for the OM603 ?
they are not very plentiful here in the states, and one would have to build a pressure capable plunum to replace the air filter box..
Its been done. From the dieselboost_demo video.
