Euro 4 D5 Block mod
So ive been doing a bit of research in the search for big power (300+hp 600+nm) on a D5 euro 4 Think ive figured out why theres not any over around 250hp and 500nm. It probably needs a block mod.
But will the T5 one work? or able to be modified to work? there is another option thats get it all machines and custom fit but thats £1500. decisions decisions as they say. |

I've done some work on the V10s. The engine alone weighs near on 400kg and ruins the handling of anything car sized it's attached to. In terms of its dimensions and mass its more of a truck motor than genuinely suitable for car use.
I suspect the transmission will be the limiting factor with the D5. The autos quoted limit is 450NM and Polestar options on the 185 and 200 take the engine right up to that limit.

The point was not the v10, its the unrealistic expectations and fantasies of some people.... its probably also better to buy the car around the v10 then to pay a fortune and or spend months of your time to reach some imaginary power number
That d5 with a modest remap drives fine, and if its not enough buy a more powerfull car Last edited by 5cilinder; Aug 28th, 2021 at 18:52. |

You need 3 bar over pressure which that standard turbo doesnt deliver , and if it did ,i doubt the engine block would like it multiplied with diesel compression and much more heat and extra power stroke pressure. That leaves skimping on air fuel ratio with overfueling and no air(turbo pressure) riding with massive smoke when that power is generated. and offcourse your tuner promises some figures if you pay and dont complain if it blows up or wears out . Ever been on a dragstrip? insane power with insane boost figures with mehanol. those engines blow up regularly or wear extremely if they dont blow up right away. That power figure has a price beyond that pink cloud i mean black clouds, fluffed with some tingling bearing sounds Last edited by 5cilinder; Aug 29th, 2021 at 13:49. |
