Tuning a W210 E300Td OM606 Mercedes Diesel

[@asdfghjklkjhgfdsa69]

A 50% increase in power and 30% increase in torque is excellent no matter how ''small'' the numbers alone are.

I am sold on the OM606 , amazing video and channel I have been thoroughly enjoying this content and I will definitely be staying tuned for more to come

Hi Luke Great too see what can be done with these engines. I am an Aussie, currently living in Bangkok, but have a W211 with an E270 Cdi. It has done 300k and is still going strong. Ken

[@dieselgaint]

Here in the states I had to have my ecu socketed and then chipped. Went rocketchip stage 2, immo and egr delete. It made 177hp with lite smoke. Egts get high and its spool up time is really slow below 2500 rpm. Other wise I'm happy with it. Planning on larger turbo and 8mm edc pump, if I can get someone to tune it.

I'm in the same boat as you. I have came across an om605 turbo for sale at the moment for 5k in Victoria and I'm on the border between Vic and NSW. Best part about this hidden gem is not many know about these engines so it gives me time to save. Hope you get a hold of one too.

In the same boat here. I got told recently only 20 of them made it in to Aus. Only reasonable solution I've come up with is to wait a couple more years and bring one in from the UK under the 25 year rule.

Thanks, I recently got myself a beautiful 1998 E300D that had a turbo fault readout...turned out to be the Turbocharger Pressure Converter that I replaced for $20.00 on Ebay...friggin runs great now !
