Silvia. Not sure as to body. Check the video I posted. You'll see it go past.

I smell a whiff of BMW looking at that. Not sure which one though.

EDIT: nope, got curious, looks like an OM606 after some googles.

I was wondering if it was diesel from that bit of black smoke I saw in your vid.


Neat.

I really want to chip my OM642 but nothing exists outside of a tune for it that I am aware of

Wow that is expensive. Malone tuning in Canada can tune the ECU for me but if we do I need to be prepared to have a muffler shop make me a delete pipe for the DPF but that should put me up from 210hp to close to 250 and over 450lb/ft of torque

The hard fuel lines going to the intake manifold are the giveaway on diesel. Engine looks too ancient to me a modern DI.
