well, i would not do that. The spray pattern is too different for comfort while on full throttle. E6x 535d has Bosch DLLA 160 P 1415 nozzle with 160 degrees and E39 530d has Bosch DLLA 145 P 926 nozzle with only 145 degrees spray angle.

Even so a lot of people run that setup, i would not be sure if it doesn't melt your pistons on long terms. It may hold for some 1 to 5th gear acceleration, but here in Germany where you can drive for minutes flatout Vmax, i would have serious doubts if the pistons would withstand that strain.

What horsepower you want to achive? Alpina D10 Injectors would be a good way to get to around 280 hp with only little smoke. Officially they cost a lot of money but you get the nozzles itself for around 50 Euros a piece and then you just have to give them with your injectors to Bosch and let them assemble it. Together with a 3 Bar Boost Sensor and a 1800 Bar Rail Pressure Sensor you can easily get 250 hp with stock GT2556V Turbo and like 1500 to 1550 Bar Rail Pressure or 280 hp with 1600 Bar pressure. Your CP1 pump does that easily from around 3500 to 4000 rpm.

I recently swapped my M57D25 out of my Opel Omega 2.5 DTI for a M57D30 from 530d E39 with new injectors from Bosch and 3 Bar Boost Sensor + 1800 Bar Rail Pressure Sensor. Did the software myself and for the moment it runs fine at 2,4 Bar Boost, 1450 Bar rail pressure with only 70 mm³ of fuel (3000 - 4400 rpm) for the moment.

I have GM 5L40-E automatic transmission so i will not go on more torque lower down but more power from 3500 rpm up soon. Have to recalibrate my injection duration maps for that and then i will run maybe 1550 or 1600 bars in high revs.

Cheers, Thomas
