OM603 power hold backs
OM603 power hold backs
obviously the turbo is too small, a better flowing manifold would be good, modified injection pump, intercooler, what not.
but what are some of the mechanical limits? like the pistons and rods will need to be replaced at what amount of hp.
the valves need to be this'ed or that'ed
but yea. just trying to get a feel for where some of the big power caps are.
from what ive heard the stock IP turned up is good to around 200 or so hp?
1998 E300TD 7.5mm pump and hx35 to come!

Way more than 200hp though.
We have a cracked NA rod and heat damage in this thread:

Just replace rods with 606 rods and you can achieve higher then that. The head make sure it's not low number crack head. Replace valves and ect if your going to rev it higher then normal.
Pump, fit on a hx35 and you can get some great numbers.

but i think finding a set of 606 rods will be the hard part.

They should be fine for what your doing with it! I have seen some pushing 400hp at 6000rpm on stock turbo rods

10-28-2011, 12:27 PM #7I wouldn't worry about the rods to much the om603 turbo rods are pretty stout especially if your not revving over 6k and not making 300hp under 3000rpm with a large VNT
