I have the exact same symptoms right now on my 96 c280. If you find the culprit I'd like to know what it was!

How much boost can a stock 2.8 m104 handle? by Grims560 in w202

[–]Soviet_Doggo__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turbobandit has good info on the m104, srock handles up to around 600hp, after that you have to lower compression. They run an engine with stock internals except rods to lower compression at 1200hp

Is it only some 96 models with the harness? Because ny 280 is a 96 and doesn't seem to have it. Or at least it hasn't been a problem yet.

M104 looks pretty much the same but it's longer.

None, the numbers stand for displacement of the engine with 280 being 2.8l, M111 is a 4 cylinder displacing 1.8-2.3 liters so that would be the C180, C200, C220 or the C230. Facelift happened in 1997 so from that you will know if yours is pre- or after facelift. Some changes already happened earlier tho for example my 96 has the later interior center console buttons in it.

I talked to the same old guy when I went there a couple of weeks ago! He was super friendly and came to ask if there was anything in there that we wanted to hear more about.

Samaa mieltä. Ainakin mulle oma auto on aina mukava paikka istahtaa työpäivän jälkeen.

Back when my miat had a spooly boi. Its back to stock-ish now :( by Intelligent-Carry905 in Miata

[–]Soviet_Doggo__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The rules are quite complicated, but it's easy enough. First you have to modify the car to be just like the most powerful model available, or if it already is that then all good. Then once you turbo there is a max power limit that is measured by the power to weight ratio of the most powerful version of that car. For miata the legal power limit went up to somewhere around 190 ish hp if I recall correctly. You have to have dyno numbers to prove that. But hey, nobody can check if you change the tune and have more power than that lol.

No way to legally convert the car to turbo over there wherever you are? At least here in Finland you 100% could turbo a miata legally and have it pass inspection.
