Stock OM617 non turbo convert turbo
Hello I'm new here, I'd like to ask I would like to mount the turbo on OM617 non turbo. Turbo pressure would be 0.6 bar so low pressure engine should handle it. I know that assembled STT turbo kits that ran on this principle. Motor would handle such loads?

An EGT gauge can help you get more power safely without melting the engine. I don't know what the limit for a naturally aspirated 617 is, but the turbo version's limit is 1250°F

The M pump was the stock naturally aspirated pump in the rest of the world. Can be tweaked to put out more power, may need to be tweaked by a shop-I don't know how much you can improve it without sending to a shop. Dieselmenken is the expert with M pumps
