One more thing....
Do you know if this turbo was added to the existing engine? Or, was a turbocharged engine used as a replacement for the old n/a OM617?

If the turbo was added to the original engine, you may ultimately experience some complications. The OM617.952 engines (stock turbo install) have some significant differences in their design that allow them to tolerate the combusion conditions encountered when operating at full boost.
