Re: [MBZ] 1981 300D to 300D Turbo

While you can just stick a trubo onto a non-turbo engine, you must at least change the IP over as well, along with any necessary running gear. The rear end ratio is indeed different, as well. Big problem is that the block is not the same, most especially there are no oil jets to cool the

Re: [MBZ] 1981 300D to 300D Turbo

We've had this discussion before, but I do not believe that their would be any significant problems in adding a turbo to a non-turbo block, and the engine would last just as long. The IP can be tuned to provide sufficient fuel, but metering will be slightly less accurate, which might mean

Re: [MBZ] 1981 300D to 300D Turbo

Unless you change the IP to the boosted one, there IS no difference -- in performance, either, for the most part. The minor increase in intake pressure you will get won't make much difference (except for no smoke and full power, maybe). It's the added fuel that makes more power. Add

Re: [MBZ] 1981 300D to 300D Turbo

MB had good reason to add the modifications they did to the turbo engines, and if I was designing a turbo diesel I would add the same. That doesn't mean the engine will self destruct or not work correctly without them! They are good features to have on a diesel engine which make it run better,

Re: [MBZ] 1981 300D to 300D Turbo

All you need to do is adjust the fuel enrichment and timing to get the full power of a turbo engine without changing the IP, but it will be smoky when you first step on the throttle before the turbo builds boost- otherwise it will work fine. I've owned and seen many turbo diesels without boost
