Benjamin's W201 OM602 STD Project Car
At first hello to all,
I'm happy to be a member on STD.
I'm Benjamin from Croatia, and I'm working about 3 years on my car.
I would like to introduce my project car that I have rebuild completely from ground off.
To hold me short. Last year I completely rebuild the car from ground off. Inside and outside. Inside it got a black leather 16V interior. And outside you can see.
Now I working on a new engine. I have buy a donor car with a 2.5 Turbo Diesel engine.
The engine is now fully rebuildet from ground off. I also modified the pump with 6mm elements from a OM 605 pump. Her in Croatia it's difficult to get bigger elements. STD are not known here. Happily I have good connections I work before in a Mercedes-Benz workshop and I have a friend who repairs Pumps. So we modified the pump with help of Dieselmeken AB Thanks a lot on this place.
The set up is following:
-OM 602 Turbo engine fully rebuilded
-Pump modified with OM605 6mm elements at 75ccm of fuel.
-an IC would be installed to cool air down
-Dog leg 16V 5 speed gearbox
-2.65 diff from the 2.5 TD automatic gearbox
-Flywheel and clutch at first my OEM from the 2.0D it should be OK
-Turbo at the moment OEM one with increased boost to 1.5 bar
My targets:
Daily driver car with around 200-220hp max.
With the OEM turbo 150hp still the engine gona get a few kilometer worked.
Open questions:
-What turbo to use - target 200-220hp? Garret turbos would be easier to get her in Croatia. T3 or T4 or something different...? I have find out that the Holset he221w would be a good choice is that true?
-Making a exhaust manifold - No problem
-Maybe increase fuel ?
Yesterday we have start the car for the first time, her is a short video:
