In my opinion, I would try to find another 602 turbo motor just for its performance in the 201 chassis. The 602 turbo even makes the heavier 124 relatively quick. They didn't make very many of the 2.5T's; I'd try to keep it stock. Downgrading to that 601 is going to be a pretty big performance hit...you'll be losing a cylinder and the turbo.
I wonder if an engine from a 90-93 300D would bolt into a 201? They're essentially the same engines, but with the EDS controls.
