Where are the turbo 240D guys?

I am looking to turbocharge my OM601 in my 200TD and I have all of the hard parts already.

Looking for some insights from the 240D turbo crowd about how they are increasing fuel on N/A pumps and what they are seeing in terms of EGTs.

I am looking for a little more power out of my OM601, I am not trying to build a super diesel. I am realistically looking to go from 75HP to like 90HP.

What I do not know about is diesel tuning with a mechanical pump. Do I need to run an intercooler to keep EGTs down? Looking to stay low boost in the interest of response, and my lack of available fuel.

601 turbo advice would be great too, but in the US you see a lot more people turboing 616s than you do 601s. Figured tuning a turboed 616 insights should be somewhat applicable to an N/A 601 with a turbo.

What I am not looking for is suggestions of a 603 swap or dozens of posts about piston oil squirters.

I went to post on STD but I am permabanned with zero posts and emails to winmutt go unreplied. Apparently I've angered someone.
