Stock with a good transmission and good tune the car is good for 95 to 100 WHP. So at BEST you are looking at 10 to 15 HP gain over stock. Trust me I would LOVE to have 110HP versus the 71.5 HP my Mercedes Dynoed at a couple months ago. Heck, I'll be tickled with the stock HP numbers.
You can all you want, fact is to make noticeable gains beyond stock you have to spend big money to get a reworked injection pump. The MW pump with the stock plunger elements that are in it is at pretty close to max as it is. Now having said that, there is a member over at Schumans that is working on manufacturering larger plunger elements for the MW injection pump that is on the OM617.95x engine that could open the door to more power.
I just wanted to make sure that people were aware that the videos you posted were not the OM617.95x engine we are talking about in this thread.
