VNT turbo
VNT turbo
i bought a used VNT turbo, owner didn't know where it came from but it was cheap so i bought it. it has a 45mm compressor wheel and 65mm turbine wheel, exhaust flange is T3, on the compressor housing is a nr with a mercedes star on so i gues its from mercedes, does anybody know what type and if its good for an om617 in a G for off road?
45mm inducer, that thing would be super quick spool being a vnt!
Correct me if I am wrong but I believe stock is around 40mm, so that turbo should work nicely in my opinion
Wow a t3 vnt, pretty cool.
Boost actuator would not be ideal, without some sort of throttle input you'd have to avoid fully closing the vanes (which is kinda the point of a vnt). I'd like to throw out the idea of EGP actuating, seems like it might be less likely to bog the engine down while still closing the vanes as much as possible.
Its a 466520-0001 loooooong, very loooong time out of production.
Actually at this time VNT didn't even officially exist ^^
If your not very electronically inclined (like me), you could do a spring setup. With a mechanical stop to keep it from closing completely
larsalan I guess I need to look at this stupid ass drip shit. What you have to like mess with those elements on the pump? What a fucking hassle. then use some wire to hold the throttle open or some shit?

I always thought the way Lance did it was intriguing and would likely do something similar if I ever get far enough ahead of the power curve to install mine:

he also has some updates/insights posted on whatever forum he was last hanging around at...if he didnt wear out his welcome over there yet...
i have the vnt mounted on the om617, if the oil lines where a bit longer they would fit straight on. now i need to find a solution to connect it to the intake manifold. I also have a water cooled intercooler lying around but i don't know if it is ok for this engine?I am also gona send my pump to dieselmeken for 7,5mm elements
this is the car its getting on
