As an experiment I have done this OM617A 8 mm MW pump. Pump is in a G-wagen now, and I got this report yesterday
35" Wheel, stock pump 0-90km/h 62sek ( 0-55mph / 62sec)
After swapping to 8,0mm MW 0-90km/h 18 sec
Nice smoot Power, Good at low idle, 1,8 bar max boost with a slight black smoke after
Automatic transmission started to slip a bit att full load.
This is OM617A Standard, no other Changes than pump.
On negative thing is that the Engine stall and stop after hard load, Dont know if its a fuel pressure issue or if its a damper capsule adjustment that needs to be done. As I Sayed, an experiment.
Element is thick type, not thin type MW, thats why I have this adaptor plate on 3 mm.
