1991 Mercedes 300d 2.5 om602 wastegate swap GSXR

1991 Mercedes 300d om602 wastegate swap GSXR. Swapped the vacuum actuated wastegate over to the more reliable pressurized wastegate. You must read the GSXR wastegate swap forum on peach auto before attempting this.
***VERY IMPORTANT:
If you do this conversion, make sure you manually open the air intake door at the MAF!!!
I did a video on the procedure if you look it up.***

I ran into the same Problem on my 92 2.5 Turbo 300D ! Mercedes. I really appreciate you taking the time to talk about it on KZbin! Thank you Sir! I'm doing it now and it shifts Amazing smooth and feeling the old horse power back.

Thank you so much for posting this! I've been trying to make heads or tails of the forum posts for months now and, for the life of me, couldn't figure out which vac lines to remove, plug and keep. After watching your video, I confidently popped the hood and had everything pulled out and the proper line rerouted in 10 minutes!

Thanks for the video. Someone really needs to make a step by step video for this job in more detail.

Hello , if you can help me do this conversion I will appreciate that , I got this car and spent load of cash on it n now I realised the problem is that shitty vaccum operated WG

I'm confused about what you did with the line to the manifold. Where does this line come from, the new actuator? Did you drill threads into the manifold? Can you tell me exactly the fitting you used from Summit? Thank you.

Filthy Luca Google “GSXR waste gate swap” I also recommend running a boast gauge from the intake manifold for peace of mind. Cheers, Johnny

@@nojdog There are no actuators with that model # any more. Do you know what a good substitute would be? Trying this conversion on my 93' 300D 2.5 turbo. Thanks, Tim
