does anyone know off hand the compression ratio of this engine and if it was different to that in e.g. the w124 car equivalent. I ask because the bhp figure is higher for the car than the g-wagen. 188 bhp v 170 :?: bhp.

yes I have a turbo technics twin turbo kit for the 103 engine, might even get away with not lowering the compression, not sure though.
