Re: [diesel_mercedes] (OT) For the gearheads

 

Brian,

I believe if you will check ALL manufacturers warranties you will find the same general policy. Even Mercedes! People buy these already highly "tuned" cars and add their own mods to increase the outputs above safe stress levels and expect the manufacturers to fix THEIR mistakes?

Try taking a naturally aspirated Mercedes 5 banger, hang a turbo on it, and turn the pump up for maximum output and see how long it lasts! A turboed motor with the pump turned up will last MUCH longer than the n/a one. It all has to do with design!

Go buy you a new G(overnment)M Duramax or Z-28 Camaro and try it for yourself!
