This is very good video! I have m102 190e (-1987) waiting for this similar operation. I had similar idea before on oil circulation so it's good to see someone has already done it successfully! Keep up your good content!
We normally do it's easy BUT most people don't have an engine lift and the bigger tools this is just a easy diy style for most. Just make sure you clean the hell out of the tank
@hamlulit I think the 103m has 160-180hp or something na. So for every bar of boost we increase it by 2 times the power so 160 would be around 320 at 1bar or 14.5psi of boost. The size of the turbo is important as well and I don't really think you'd want to do more than 7psi, at least that's what I've read. 7psi would put you at 270hp I think 270-250, you need a tuner. I assume they say 7psi maximum online because you'll run out of stock injector beyond it or blow a head gasket. There is virtually almost no limit to the amount of boost depending on the turbos size though, if it was all forged, a 160hp moter could take 5bar or more multiplying it's power 5 times 700hp+.
I got the idea from a 603 with no intercooler we have 2 of them 87 sedan 300d turbo and a 87 300td wagon the setup is so simple and right to the point we've done this to a few gas motors and they all run and drive great
On the oil return line from the turbo, what's stopping you from simply drilling and tapping the oil fill cap on the valve cover and dumping return oil there? I don't think anything there would be upset with the extra feed and it would go back to the pan without any worry about cavitation and sloshing, as well as the shavings. And it would be 100% reversible with a $10 cap. I definitely haven't tried this, just thinking out loud.
Turbo oil drain can not go upward from turbo, if it will oil wont just immidietly flow down drain in turbo but it will collect in turbocharger and be able to go past seals and into exhaust and intake side of turbine wich will result in huge oil consumption and a lot of smoke. When you make turbo oil drain make sure the hose goes downward all the way from turbo to oil pan and that at the place where it enters oil pan it is still above oil level.
(I ask bc i don't know) You are running a no intercooler which means the hot turbo air is going straight back into the engine just what to know how risky that is and is there downsides or does it ruin your engine or won't be able to run a long time bc of the hot air
We have water methanol injection now but for the 1st few months it was cool out and it would heat soak after about 3 hard pulls engine still runs stronger than ever with no issues
