Apparently the factory did not think the 4.5 went fast enough, hence the 6.3. Now lets try putting a turbo on a M100 and then making it fit........into a truck maybe:-)

May be, but NOT in a W108 chassis!  There's barely room for the
exhaust, let alone turbo piping, and it goes fast enough as it is -- I
have one.

The 617 swap was fairly common in Germany -- reduced the taxed
considerably and didn't take too much off performance.
