I'm staring my project. I have bought OM606 engine, now looking for om603 pump and bigger turbo. My target is 400-450 hp. Om603 pump will be modyfied with 7.5 elements. Local Holset dealer adviced to use 3591999 or 3593920, this is HX40 turbos. Is he right? He couldn't tell housing size for me. What I'm looking for is HX40 with 14 cm housing. Am I on the right way?
Thanks for your advice

Hi Alius, the HX 40 will work for your goals but will have some lag unless you fabricate a proper flowing exhaust manifold. I'm using an HX 40 for my project but I'm not sure of the size.

Not on a 603. A 16cm turbine would be VERY slow to spool up and would make the car bad to drive normally on the street.

That's pretty much the profile I'm shooting for. Maybe with an earlier rise due to the supercharger...

It's just a turbo swap away, worst case is he'll re-sell and buy one with a smaller housing if the spool time is an issue.

(03-20-2011, 02:14 AM)muuris you'd know they are more daily drivable than a normal 300d.The T3's turbine is 43mm/62mm and .43ar/6.5cm
The HX40's turbine is 64mm/76mm and 14cm is equivalent to .97ar while 16cm is 1.13ar.
Its physically impossible for an HX40 to perform anything close to like a T3 unless you beat the piss out of the engine to make it spool up. TheT3 will spool up under easy driving around 2000rpm, your dyno sheet shows an HX40 doesn't spool up even under full throttle until 3500rpm.
Quote:if it did spool slower"slower" isn't an accurate description here, the correct description would be "if it spools without having to flog the engine".
An HX40 isn't very responsive even on the 8.3L Cummins ISC it was designed for. An OM603 at 3500rpm flows the same mass of air as an ISC at its 1300rpm peak torque. There is no way a 603 is going to spool that turbo at any lower rpm with a 14cm housing. A 16cm housing would push that above 4000rpm.

03-21-2011, 11:04 AM #22I dont know what was done to that 606, but there are a few ways to get that boost to spool up faster then what it is doing right at the moment. So you say 3,500rpm is where it starts to act up, you could get that motor to do that same lets say 3,000rpm with a few modifications to the exhust and intake (not sure if there was anything done to it yet) So that makes it 1000rpm away from reacting somewhat a stock t3 would be doing. and on a side note you have allot more hp available at that rpm range then the stock t3. I would take the hx40 over the t3 anyday, even if it takes flogging the motor.

Drive one and stop moaning. Your theory has been proven wrong by practice and experience. Of course 60x is more modern engine than 617, that doesn't make it less driveable. No one is stupid enough to put a T3 in 60x.
I don't find stock(ish) 617A glamorous even if you wrote ten books about it
I don't find 2500-3000rpm equal to "beat the piss out of the engine".

(03-21-2011, 08:49 AM)MJF You really need to drive one and stop looking only theory.I have access to a fleet of 15 HX40 equipped vehicles. There is no possible way an HX40 can spool up better on a 3.0L engine than it can on an 8.3L engine. Stop lying.
Quote:So you say 3,500rpm is where it starts to act up, you could get that motor to do that same lets say 3,000rpm with a few modifications to the exhust and intakeThe only two ways to make a turbo spool up faster are to increase the exhaust volume or increase the exhaust velocity (VNT).
Quote:Did I say HX40 spools up as fast as T3?Yes. "more daily drivable than a normal 300d." The only possible way for that to be is to produce the same or better torque at the same rpms. Impossible without at least the same airflow, aka, boost. With the turbo not spooling up until 3500rpm the torque will be little better than that of a non-turbo engine.

I'm not going to use my E36 with Om606 for daily drive, it is for some weekend race. As I see in dyno sheet, it could generate more than 300 Nm at 2000 RPM, it is what I'm looking for.

But as we all know alla engine are differend so other can make more power than other "same" setup.
It all own choice.
Thanks Jeemu for dyno sheet.
I'm not going to use my E36 with Om606 for daily drive, it is for some weekend race. As I see in dyno sheet, it could generate more than 300 Nm at 2000 RPM, it is what I'm looking for.
If you could tell us what other mods were made to this engine it would be great.
Just exhaust, Mynä pump and Holset.
If less than 400hp is enough, put HX35 in it.

OM605 600hp diesel drag car build with BMW E30 chassis
(03-22-2011, 04:11 AM)SavitasThat engine was ever open, so it s fully original.(03-22-2011, 01:02 AM)jeemu I put that dyno sheet to show Savitas how HX40 works at 606 on dyno.

01-10-2016, 11:41 PM #36Thanks Tito. I realize it is a typical compound. But does the wastegate open from boost pressure or EMP? If emp, then what pressure, was it difficult to tune, did it have a "valley of death" where boost falls off before the big turbo spools up, and other specifics. Did it work well in ehe end? People always end up selling these compound setups, so they must not work all that well.

atypicalguy, my compound build will use EMP to drive the interstage wastegate. Because the interstate wastegate is there to bypass the small HP turbo when it becomes a restriction (to exhaust gas flow).
I envisage the wastegate spring pressure should be set to similar pressure to the drive pressure requirement of the HP turbo's turbine.
Both the HP and LP turbo internal gates will control compressor output pressure, at least in theory.
That is how my design 'will work' anyway..
Installed:
OM606/722.6, big IC, W220 brakes.
Planned:
DIY manifold, compound, 722.6 controller, built IP.
[i]Less rust.. [/i]

It all sounds good. But it looks like not too many people have made it work very well. Choosing the correct turbochargers seems difficult.
I think the signal to the small turbo wastegate should be the difference between the intake and exhaust manifold pressures. It should open as the EMP approaches the IMP.
But the large turbo should have a wastegate driven by IMP only.
Maybe the hx30 and hx52 or something. Need to do some math to figure it all out!
Thanks for sharing,
Karl
