With 8mm plungers you get something like 1mm wall thickness in the element so that's the absolute maximum you can get in MB pump. Unless you somehow modify the whole pump body and fit other type elements in it. The stock cam in the pumps arent that hot either. Older non EGR cars have milder cam and the more current that come with EGR crap have the more agressive of them. Regular chineese 7mm elements combined with the EGR cam will result in high combustion noise. With the milder cam they work better but will not put as much fuel.
As far as I know all of the US OM603's are EGR. Will the chinese7mm elements get me to 300hp? I know the 6mm's out of a OM606 will make close to 235hp. How much "combustion noise" are we talking about-cummins 24v, cummins 12v, tractor (bd154),etc?
