(02-02-2015, 05:45 AM)erx Backpressure was 3 bar with hx35 super, don't know with stock turbo but I think it was high.Yeah, I measured at worst 2,3bar backpressure on completely stock OM605 (boost 1,2 bar) so you can only imagine.. But actually I expected a lot more backpressure with HX35 super. Running around 1,8 bar boost the backpressure should be ok.
Did you have stock exhaust manifold and what turbo did you use with 1,7bar? I think it was a lot bigger than 8cm hx35 super.
