Of course, that much money and work will build a proven (and much more efficient) 500+hp from an OM606.
In other words; if you just want some extra giddyup for your daily driver, the 617 is fine. If you want real power, you need to get a 606 or a CDI.

With ~$800 you can get around 180hp (M-Pump and 6mm E300 elements), this is the point I'm nearing right now. ~$4000 (in parts, not counting labor) with a Myna pump, bigger turbo, intercooler and modified transmission guts you could hit 250hp. Put ~$8,000 into the above plus huge turbo (maybe compounds), huge intercooler, custom rods, custom pistons, stronger crank, copper head gasket, head porting and maybe bigger valves and you might be the first in the world to touch 400hp with a 617.

I would like to see what a 617 can do but I do agree with F.I. that a 606 is the beast but I think a 603 could make good power too, I am going to put my efforts into the 617 for now but if I can't get her to make about 220 hp than I just step up to the 6 cyl's.

They and the clutch can easily handle the 250lb/ft @ 1800rpm my engine puts out with the VNT turbo. The only reason I changed transmissions is I got a killer deal on a newly rebuilt one ($300). My old one would grind into 2nd and 3rd if I tried to shift fast or above 2500rpm but otherwise worked very well for having 218k miles.

If I had a 606 that put out 350+ HP than I might use a 700R4 or an AOD, my trans in my CD is bad but after the donner swop Art Carr said he would do some nice things to it. I have the shift kit for it and I will put in a fresh converter with the install, it would not be a bad thing to have a pissed off diesel eat a stock trans.

Does Myna sell the turbo, and intercooler as well? I am wondering which turbo one would use to hit the 250 hp mark (and intercooler).

Does Myna sell the turbo, and intercooler as well? I am wondering which turbo one would use to hit the 250 hp mark (and intercooler). I am guessing with 250 hp it would be pushing close to 400 ft lb of torque? I am a lot more interested in the torque numbers. In fact 200 hp with mid ~350 ft lb of torque would do the job for me.... but I would not complain with an extra 50 hp.

Myna just does diesel injection. An HY35 would easily handle 250hp and not be painful as a daily driver. There are some rare GT30/GT32/GT35 VNT turbos that would provide good low end torque and flow enough for 250hp, but getting them is difficult in the USA.

The off idle boost they provide is amazing. I dont have a boost gauge on my jetta but I have what feels like 0 lag to me and have become spoiled.
What vehicles did those come on?
We are going to Finland for a wedding in the spring I wish it was sooner so I could drop off and pick up a pump at Myna.
Are there any typical inter coolers to grab? I am thinking that grabbing one off of something like a RX7 might work ....
This is all great information BTW thank you.

Factory intercoolers for small displacement g@ssers flow poorly, usually less than 250cfm before restriction gets into a multiple psi drop across the core. The RX-7 intercooler is a decent one though.

Has anyone tried to make a sprinter turbo work? I was looking at various vnt turbos on Wikipedia and was thinking wow maybe it would be possible to even just go buy one of those new without breaking the bank.
Are there any preferred companies out there for the aftermarket intercoolers? Maybe one from a dodge 6bt truck might be an acceptable one?
