I thinking about using a Turbo from the Mercedes OM617 engine that was equipt with the KKK K26. I did some reading on them, and I guess they do spool a lot faster than the Garrett T3. Which is something I am after now. the max boost is a little unstable, I guess it could push 20psi but would be hard on the Turbo unit. I saw one in the Junkyard the other day and it looked cool to me, and looked like it was spool quicker.

Does anyone have any personal first hand experience with this turbo?

Its supposed to spool faster than stock? Or are you looking for a little bigger than stock but a quicker spool than the t3/t4...

Kevin, did you get my pm?

to get boost up quickly you could always go with a compound setup..

My Caddy 1.6TD regularly makes 20 psi with a K24.

yeah, To make boost quicker... I think just thinking I would swap to that turbo for in the meantime. until I get a Compound setup made. I am just too busy with work, home projects, and side jobs to even get any of my own crap done. For how busy I am its ridiculous that I don't have any money.
