W124 250TD OM602 Superturbodiesel build
In the last few weeks I installed a Bosch 044 lift pump, and a boost rising fuel pressure regulator to the return line, just to make sure that the pump is not starving at high RPM.
I bought a sprinter 313 cdi SM 240mm flywheel, and this week it is going to a professional clutch builder to get ceramic friction pads and a reinforced pressure plate.
I have removed the glowplugs from my OM605.960 engine, and I pretty much made it ready to get in the wagon. Made a 15mm thick exhaust flange for it too.
I still have to make the VGT system work better, it is opening the vanes too late, and boost is a bit too low I think. But will turn up the fuel pump more.
So hopefully this month I will drop in the OM605, the ceramic clutch kit, and the 6 speed box that I have for it. Will post some pictures when done!
Until then, here is a little video of how the old lady gets up to speed.
