(11-04-2015, 10:31 AM)bicyclewrench(11-03-2015, 11:06 PM)mo1971fordcrew I turboed my w115 617 with a stock kkk 617a turbo. It has since been sold, but I had no issues with it. It was set at 10psi
Awesome! Were you running on the stock pump?
Yup! If I remember correctly, I removed the rack limiter which didn't seem to help that much. I probably put 20,000 miles on the car with that turbo setup, lol. Lots of highway driving at 65. Boost was always pegged at 10psi. Poor old thing with the short gearing rear end (3.73??) was screaming going that fast. I would turbo yours, but that's just me LOL
1980 Mercedes 300TD - Engine: 1983 OM617, W126 rear "blue" springs, turbo front springs, ALDA and rack limiter removed, boost @ 12psi. 2.5 inch exhaust off 6.9 diesel, straight pipe. Manual climate control. 2.88 diff.
