I think I'm one of the higher mileage current 240D drivers, 330 miles this week, can anybody top that?
Anyway I think you'll find this list is big on keeping stuff stock or mostly stock. I'm in that list mostly because I don't think I've got the mechanical ability to get into serious modification. To see more folks that are into hot-rodding (snicker, the thought that turning a 72hp engine to 95hp is "hot rodding" is laughable) check out the forums on Peach Parts. -Curt Date: Fri, 29 May 2009 00:04:41 -0700 From: Tyler <casi...@usermail.com> Subject: Re: [MBZ] Mercedes 240D Manual Turbocharged To: Mercedes Discussion List <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Message-ID: <c95122ed-1871-49c6-ae6f-3a16da148...@usermail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed; delsp=yes This reaction amazes me in contrast! I'm also in another online community- Turbobricks- where adding an enormous turbo to an NA Volvo is considered a normal reliable daily driver. I personally think you could run tons of boost daily through an otherwise stock 240D and it would last LONGER than an NA one, and the drivetrain would never notice the difference. You could even run A LOT OF BOOST and it would last forever if you watched the EGTs. If the turbo conversion looks professional, buy it, drive it, and enjoy it. just my opinion...
