There was a thread about this somewhere. I can't remember where though. But this is def. possible just not easy. If i remember correctly...i think it was MBenzNL or something like that..that can do it.

Yes it is.

I remember Steve and Sunil doing it, but they rip the interior apart and change all.
In this case the guy only changed the IC, and also I can't figure out how he put the IC in, since the frame its not the same.

He first installed it and had some problems...



I'm also waiting for more pics and explanations from the guy

The diesel combustion cycle is slow so they can't rev but man do they produce torque Like being on the end of an elastic band.

If I remember, when Sunil did it, they had to completely gut the car, changed the D2B to MOST, etc. It was a major project, I remember that.
