@@car.gems. doesn't really matter where you are. It can be done anywhere in the world. BS racing has 750hp om648 built in Finland... It doesn't mean it can't be done in US. 1.9 tdi is very popular and there is a ton of custom parts and modding info available. Can't say the same about cdi. 400hp 1.9tdi will have very little stock parts, so we'll be talking about building powerful engine BASED on 1.9tdi.

@@xxxHoskixxx It does actually matter, where you are. german builds are usually a bit more conservative when regarding the power. I have seen, experienced and driven such high powered Diesels.

@Legitstreetcars Both those guys calmly chopping up the front cover, etc. A thing if beauty. My only comment would be to put a shorter serpentine belt on it. The one replacement pulley was much smaller, and it looked like the tensioner was bottoming out.
I am owner of E320 CDI 03' and i really glad that you are making videos about that specific engine! Keep up the good work, it is really useful for all the people owning Turbo diesel Mercedes. Thank you!
Gents, another awesome installment. 'Can't wait until it hits the dyno. I will stand by 300 hp and 600 lb/ft of torque numbers when the build began a few months ago. The tranny will be living on borrowed time though without further "hardening".
We once had a similar case, we used a forklift as a tool to pull the injector and lifted the car and used it as a puller. The bitch came out but it wasn’t a pretty face to look at.
+1 to that! Between your in depth CDI explorationtions starting with your arrival to Benzworld and Alexe's channel OM648 pretty much covered end to end..lol Btw i did pulled the trigger on head unit upgrade ( much delayed) got HIZPO with Android 10... having a CAN BUS B question for ya. Let me know if it's Ok to text you. CHEERS.
These are some of the best engines around. I have been developing a stand alone ECU for them to be able to unleash their full potential for engine swaps and tuning.
I'd recommend picking up a right angle die grinder and putting a swivel fitting on it. Its a lot easier to work with and manipulate when cutting/grinding things. Never know when you need to get it into some awful spot to cut something.
When that harbor freight grinder stops working replace the power cord and you are good to go I've been working with mine for 4 years on home and car projects worth the money
My C220 CDI could take only 20 hp with chip tuning from 150 hp stock to 170 hp . I wouldn’t mess with mine since it’s a small engine , but good job on the E320 CDI . All Mercedes engines are firm and stable .
thank you for instuctions. just did this to my E320 cdi wagon, for preparations to lots more power (and for some reliability issues) but it needed some more work than you showed in the video. mainly for the belt rerouting. but worked in the end. now i miss only a turbo for my build and i have a nice powerfull daily driver
Cut a dryer vent cover hole in the side of the building or the door. Get some rubber hose and put it on your exhaust when you need to start a car. Use the vent to push the exhaust outside. This way you don't lose the heat in the shop or poison your self. You need to use the dryer vent to stop rodents from getting in your shop.
Geraldo Marra I have the 2.7 5 cylinder and 2.148 4 cylinder baby sisters of this 3.2 cdi and they both sound amazing in my 2 vans. But I have nice custom exhausts on both.
If you have a lot build up “black death” you can soak it with hot water. Let the water with a soft jet run over the carbon and you will see it will come loose. In Belgium i seen the problem a lot (working by MB dealership) we always manage on this way to work easier after cleaning the carbon. 👍🏻
I’m really impressed with this. I really want a Mercedes turbo diesel now. Looks like it gets better mpg than the gasoline engines, it’s a luxury vehicle, plus the available torque makes it a premium GT car.
Hi Alex. Wanted to leave a big thank you from Ireland. Because of your videos, I found Black Death on my OM642 ML280 and finished pulling the injectors last night on the bad bank. All is good now! Will do the second bank in a few days. Thanks Paul.
Its shows just how wrong the north american market has been with regards to these 3l diesel engines. We are still 20yrs behind the rest of the tuning world.
This is awesome! So lucky for you to have a local guy with knowledge to help out. Only have a tune on my CDI so far but it's helped immensely. Side note, you need the MB rtv mini applicator gun! Makes putting on rtv so much easier than dealing with half dried up tubes.
Super badass I was just watching the end of the video again I've always wanted to do a diesel build I think that's awesome thing sounds like a straight jet awesome
So I assume we will be seeing more of your new friend? I really like him, it’s nice to have two people on rather than just one almost of the time. Personal opinions.
Another great vid Alex. Forza diesel. I still have my two ‘14 E350s, but just bought a ‘13 Audi Q7 TDI. So far so good. I’m loving the 406lb tourque and 28mpg. Keep the vids coming.
man we are basically neighbors. you did that pull down devon and milwaukee i drive by there everyday lol im suprised i never see you around on the streets.
VW parts for win? Wow. That like ford parts on BMW. That’s so wrong but works lol. The tiny pulley is hopefully easy to change as it will be turning so much faster. All in all really cool. Thank you for taking us along
Let me know when you're in San Diego, I think you'll want to check out my diesel car. It's pretty quick as well. Last time on the dyno it was 361hp and 574 lb ft and I'm expecting a little better next time as well.
so right about Italy. I saw small gas engines or diesel, nothing wild. You should check out the lambo factory near bologna next time your over. Could you imagine of those old school fiat 500's with atleast 200-300 hp.

Not a bas idea. Now his 320cdi has a Darkside Development upgrade turbo but maybe a custom manifold,with Biturbo and Hybrid sandwich like the newest Mercedes. A better porting on the heads and so on.

Ok, leave your horsepower and torque guesses. I'm going to say 310 WHP and 520 LB-FT of torque. Loaded dyno.
LegitStreetCars 311 WHP and 521 LB-FT
Well played
this also has the upgraded turbo , right?
Yes
I got 313 bhp and 580LB-ft with Brabus chip on c350 cdi that is W204, so I can understand your excitement while accelerating, otherwise car is stock
You tune your Diesel for more power and your Corvette for less fuel consumption. I love it.

Great job, gents!!! Makes me want one of those CDIs with your mods. I would also like to know how the work affects MPG and emissions.
