(04-30-2020, 06:54 PM)50harleyrider Look at my threads. I finally settled on the om648 vgt turbo. I'm only after 200 hp too. You'll be happy with it especially since you already have the DSL1 like me. It comes on nicely at 1200 rpm too. I can send you my tune and help you with turbo control. Baldur has or will have the control capability to use the electronic controller that comes on the turbo so hopefully you won't have to go with the vacuum controller like I did. I plan to convert back at some time but am happy right now with the vacuum control. Frans can provide you a rebuilt cassette for the turbo for a reasonable price if you buy a worn used one with slop. I'm positive it will be what you're looking for especially with a manual. What motor mounts did you use? Your original thread looks like the stock W210 ones. Heard they won't hold up. I'm trying to find new 24v oe cummins ones but they must be gold.$$$$.yeah i remember tracking yours. I love the idea of a vgt, but I have to wonder if there is something out there with newer technology that might work even better. I was also a little lost on what gt23v model I needed to look for, as I heard some of the older ones were significantly less efficient.
"You'll make big improvements simply going to a later generation VNT turbo. The early VNT (A series) have terrible vane shapes and quite poor turbine efficiency. This slows spoolup and means more drive pressure across the range.
Going to a GTB or GTC of similar size will help hugely" - quote from forum regarding the om648 turbo on a landcruiser om606.
have you been able to find a compressor map for one? or even better, could you send me a log file with a full rpm sweep so I can see how the boost comes in?
