Two reasons I love this channel: 1) You push what can be done with a TINY budget compared to so many other KZreadrs. Their content needs seven sponsors, lottery winnings, and a third mortgage to get that Lambo that will be in the shop 4 times before 15k miles. 2) You show the importance of doing as much as possible yourself. Get to know your car, how to drive it, how to fix it, how to mod it, etc.

So glad you have the E320 back on the channel, enjoy diesel cars and enjoy watching you push this platform.

Now, I want one! Thanks, Marcin, for showing what is possible with a Mercedes diesel.

Finally, a CDI video. Was getting used to the see through wagon😅. This is my dream build. It’s such a sleeper and keep it that way. Cheers Alex, you’ve taught me a lot about DIY repairs and mods. Just sold my w203 C320 just so I can get one of these. Definitely message you for advice when it arrives. Cheers

Amazing, Marcin is a legend

I'm ready to tune my 648. And my 642. This content introduced me to lsc. And keeps me coming back. I finished diesel school in 89 driving a 79 w116 with a non egr om617 to and fro. This was the first mb diesel in a long line of on/off road engine experience. I stopped driving mb just after I got married (the 79 was my last too) and have driven large vehicles (a couple of eurovans) since. I was reinspired to get back into the diesels by watching the black death series, while I was appalled a Mercedes direct injection diesel would have an injector seal failure with so few miles, i knew there would be solution. I found an 05 for $4k with 149k, picked it up and straightened it up. Rebuild the turbo (turbo international) with a new turbine shaft & rebuilt kit. Replace all charge seals, clean egr, filters and fluids (amsoil diesel synthetic). Repaired turbo actuator internal wiring. Spent $500 total, no dtcs engine or transmission. It is a rocket ship, no turbo lag at all, tires spinning from a stop even with minimal pedal effort. Just got an 07 r320 cdi 4matic, 155k receipts for : new turbo and transmission (turbo verified) full size 2 inch receiver tow hitch (brand new) full infotainment w/ front /rear dvd players, 3 screens, back up (factory) iPhone, hdmi, etc and the factory roof rack. Sorry for the long story, but I have actually enjoyed the e320 and look forward to enjoying the r320 and just wanted to share with you. Thank you P. S. I know you have seen the kids drifting that 750hp 648

Wooow, i love seeing the engine twisting from the torque on the front footages

Great to come see the progress! Sleeper FTW!

I want more CDI vids! This LSC E320 CDI video series is why I flew half way across the US to finally buy one for my wife. She loves it and wants a Marcin tune. The E320 CDI Facebook group has been helpful too.

First run was test run was the worst, with a lot of smoke, we were still figuring stuff out at that point. With last version of the tune engine smokes only for short period of time before turbo hits max boost ~2400rpm, then it cleares up. It's not the best spooling turbo despite the fact it's a ball bearing unit. I couldn't set max boost earlier than 2400rpm because we were experiencing TQ slippage. There is still some stuff I'm working on to tweak it here and there. It will be almost smokeless, but at this level of modifications some smoke is inevitable.

Your heading for a million plus subs bro ! Just keep up the awesome content!

Keep it sleeper! Love these CDI vids as an owner of CDI Benz

Definitely the old school chain limiter. Make some mounts for a chain from frame to the block motor mount. Leave a little slack for the mount to function. The chain only takes the load in high torque situations. Ez fix and super bulletproof.

Wow! I had a 2005 Cdi! This is the best build you have done! I currently have a modded 2008 Cdi gl320, it it nice but nothing like this! Makes me want another one! Yippie!

OH, MAN! Now I'm almost definitely gonna keep my "broken" engine to get the one cylinder rehoned or sleeved or whatever then slowly add these things on. What a beast!

That Mercedes looks like a beast of a car, keep up the great job !

Fun to see it's possible to get good power out of these CDI diesels too. Easy on the old mechanical ones, just stick a bigger pump on. Thank you for all the info!

Love that I thought the mount would go mine did even with less power I changed both mounts and trans mount. If I lived in the states I'd be right there for a tune. Keep it up great job.

Thanks for the play list of videos since the beginning.

Just did a coming black death fix followed your instructions, new seals under the injectors, car is good for a other 271,000 miles , order the injectors Cleaning and hammer tools, it all worked great. Thanks jacques

Congrats Alex and Marcin. I wasn’t too far off of my prediction of 300 HP and 600 lb/ft of torque. Remember-torque hauls the mail! AMG it. Too bad MB/AMG didn’t offer something like this stateside. But...that is why we like you Alex.

Awesomeness! I always have fun watching the vids. Keep ‘em coming Boss 😎

I have one of these. They are great. When I travel I get mid 40 mpg. They are spunky, even in stock form. The only failure I have had outside of maintenance is the oil cooler. While fixing that I pulled the intake off and cleaned it up. Removed the flaps and reinstalled. Two things to note, 1 MB extended the SBC warranty to 25 years unlimited miles and 2 they just issued a recall on the sunroof.

Nice job guys!))om648 and om606 are best 6inline engines ever made!

Keep the air/fuel ratio in the 18:1 mark, Make the injection wait for the boost(that will make the pick torque to move to 3krpm or so and also will be easy on the engine lower parts. Also less smoke). You can use methanol injection to lower the charge temp making it better to charge the cylinder.

Yeah without an EGT number these HP and TQ numbers are pretty meaningless. Making this kind of power with these motors is a fairly straightforward recipe. Looks like it doesn't have enough air for the fuel level and needs a bigger intercooler and a different turbo. They need to invest in an iDash sensot setup to figure out where the low hanging fruit is.

Been watching your channel for about a month now. Very cathartic to watch you wrench. I and still considering a Malones stage 2 tune to our ‘14 TDI Treg. Would go from 406 to 496 ft/pds torque and of course, better mpg’s. I just ceramic coated the wheels yesterday after a ph balanced cleaner. Motor on!

My friend has a E280 cdi and 260hp with a tune, we cut off the mufflers and it got way faster. He also has same type wheels as you winter and summer. Winter ones are all the same size 19's but the summer ones are like 245 front and 285 rear 19", i think they are original ones with concave in the back. they look very good and it's a avantgarde so he doesnt need to lower it. It's very fast my other friends dad has a E250 cdi with 240hp tune and its fast aswell. Was thinking to tune our E220 to the same figure cus its the same engine. Great video though Alex!
