If you want more power, intercool it, larger turbo, exhaust and tune the pump.

The om603 does not have a lot of turbo lag. Something had to be wrong with that car. Mine hauls a$$ for what it is.
He just remembers that the first turbodiesel he drove, a W124 300TD, had problems with starting from a hill because of little low-end torque. He also had the same complaint driving my brother's W116 300SD.

There's a person on eBay selling a flange adaptor for a T3 to Sprinter turbo so that bit isn't hard to figure out, it's the intercooler piping and air filter housing.
