The DC9 is a series of Inline 5 engines designed by Scania for their buses. They come in various power ratings, from a low 230HP to a high 320HP, and a special 394HP variant.
And I have perfectly ported them all to BeamNG!

Torque Curve (230HP)
I perfectly matched the real life engine from a Scania K230UB, with 230HP and a ZF Ecomat 5HP-504/C transmission into BeamNG.
I measured the idle RPM, shifting on kickdown RPM, aswell as recorded sound references, to then base the ingame engine off.
My recommended configuration in BeamNG for maximum realism using this engine is
- 230HP DC9 Engine with a ZF Ecomat 5HP-502/C transmission
- 280HP DC9 Engine with a ZF Ecomat 6HP-604/C transmission

Hey there. Thanks for the kind words! I tried before to port an engine to the Wentward Pack, but it never worked. I'll try again though, now that I know more about modding

Hello. I can try, but because the Segra is a paid mod, it might take longer to do, aswell as the fact that every time the Segra updates, it might break this engine

Thank you! Luckily some more engines are in the works, the OM447 engine, with naturally aspirated and turbocharged versions, as well as a CNG version will be hopefully done soon.

You just read my mind haha. The OM447 is going to be the next engine that I work on. I will try to make a CNG version too, the M447HLAG. The bus company where I am recently retired their O405s, so having this engine in the game will bring back a lot of nostalgia, and making the bus sound really good too!

Thank you very much! I tried to make this as realistic as possible from the buses I've been on, which were from 2007, so it's really good to hear that it still sounds the same now

That wouldn't be too much of a bad idea, because the MD is a medium duty truck, which kind of needs the torque this engine brings
