Check out these two W201 turbo diesels that produce powers out of this freakin' world!! http://www.teamrwd.com/dieselboost/videos/dslboost05.wmv http://www.saunalahti.fi/hece1/300d.avi http://www.saunalahti.fi/~hecekiel/dieselboost_demo.mpg The black W201 used to be Evo II but they decided to remove the stock benzin engine to a more suitable diesel engine. Black W201's dyno!! 426 hp and 765Nm!! In stock, these diesel cars accelerate from 0-100 in a weekend... Look at the size of the turbo! Who needs a benzin anymore when you can get this with even 70's-80's technology..
ojis: man they have widen the ozone hole with that black smoke man those cars need LSD. impressive performance for sure.
Older Mercedes' diesels lasted so long because of their generally weak horsepower per liter output. A 1976 200D W123 had a 2-liter engine and 55-horsepower. At this power rate, there is less strain, wear and tear on the motor. Also, older diesels didn't rev as high, which also accounted for their longlivity. I am sure these modified diesels will last for some time, but not as long as their stock counterparts. 400+ horsepower from a 2.5-l engine is pretty much asking for trouble. Also, the 190D was never designed to work with the amount of torque this engine produces. The torque amount means wear and tear on the transmission - which has to be modified I assume because there is no way a stock 190D transmission would be able to handle all this power. Nonetheless, cool 190D's. Would be awesome to pull up next to a Porsche in one of these and SMOKE HIM. Literally. :eusa_danc *Cough Cough*
