The gt2256v on the 220cdi just died, oil starvation due to the mounting bolts loosening. Need to find a replacement turbo for it. I have been looking at the gtb2260vklr, would it be a good fit or is there a better and cheaper turbo out there?

Sorry for the long delay in answering this post. Thanks for the pointers. The modifications so far, 1. changed the original injectors to the AMG type nozzle. 2. changed the intercooler to lower the blockage and better cooling 3. blocked the EGR by making an aluminum cork for the egr cooler connectin...

Hi again. What is the safe maximum boost that i can run with stock old 650k km headstuds and stock internals? I qas thinking of changing the map sensor to the 3 bar boost and boosting to 2.5 bar. Is this possible?

Changed the intercooler ( chargecooler ) to a larger Japanese greddy. The difference is night and day!!! After changing to amg injectors, From smoking all the time to smoking only when cold and at low rpm below 1200. The annoying habit of the 722.6 auto box not changing down even at low rpm is not a...

Putting 2359 to four- or fivecyl. engines is not just plug and play- job, any more. In elect. controlled charger, comperessor housing is in wrong direction, it must be taken from older, vacuum-conrolled charger. I am personally using that older version where I had build a "bed" for that c...

Sent the 2359 turbo to the turbo shop and found out that the outlet and position points the wrong way!!!! After going thru tuikku's posts again, finally understand that the outlet housing from the older vacuum controlled turbo is needed to complete the transformation of the 2359 to work in the 646 a...

Another question? If the 270 can enter into dyno mode, does the gearbox drop a gear from 4th to 3rd under load? Can the gearbox be programmed to stay in 4th from 1500rpm to 4500rpm without dropping a gear? cdi203, after googling a bit, found that the galetto 1260 can be used to read and reprogram th...

Which car do you mean now, 220 or 270, I don´t understand ? There are two cars, a w211 220cdi manual 6 speed and a w211 270cdi auto 5 speed. In this tread we are discussing the 220 manual. Putting 2359 to four- or fivecyl. engines is not just plug and play- job, any more. In elect. controlled charg...

The 270cdi come with airmatic which has been converted to normal springs and shocks. If turned to 3rd position the Airmatic error pops up. Does this effect the dyno mode to not turn on?

If using the BM Star, where is the selection for the dyno mode?

Thank you both for the very helpful advise.

Tuikku, tried the methods but none of them seems to work. Mine is a German spec 2003 wdb2110162a model. Is there anyone here that owns the same model and knows how to get the dyno mode?

. From a constant 646 -> ~200hp. No sense to change injectors, if you still have the orig. turbo. First cooler, turbo and map-sensor. From almost all of these streight-line-engines original injectors, it is possible to have ~50hp/cyl, if charger and cooler are suitable for that. It is not easy, but...

Double posted.

Am now in Penang and will dyno the car tomorrow, Monday. Will post the result if I can get the chart in softcopy. Am also going to get the egr deleted in software if possible. Next modification on the line is to change the injectors to AMG injectors. After that the intercooler needs looking at........

Hello guys, what are the maximum output expected from a 646 assuming that the intercooler are made bigger to handle the heat? AMG spec injectors paired with GT2256 turbo from a 647 w211 e270 cdi3 From posts written by tuikku it seems that the GT2256 will spool up faster and 'may' over torque the gea...

Thank you for the answer. I have heard rumours that the 5 cylinder engine is the weakest of the 64? family, is that true? In what way is the engine weak, crankshaft break, conrod break or some other problem?

I'd like to know what clutch and cover to use on a w211 e220cdi 646 engine with 6 speed manual. Would very much appreciate the help.

Hello all. Am currently interested in getting more power out of the 5 cylinder cdi. So far after looking at what tuikku has done to his c200, have taken off the aluminum egr y tube and cut out the egr mixing shroud. Pictures taken from tuikku's thread and belongs to tuikku. Before ( Pictures taken f...

Thanks for the pointers, am now in Anxi China. I will try to mount the water meth nozzle at the bottom just after the intercooler and after the sensor as suggested. Had to change the clutch cover and clutch after installing the AMG nozzles because they were slipping and smelling. They came in a set ...

Thank you guys so much for the replies. Sorry for the late replies but am now in China Xiamen and have no access to the net. I can understand the difficulty in communicating in third language. English is also not my native but 3rd language. So on the 1st reply I need to reprogram for more air and le...

Hello to all the diesel guru here. I came to this forum by the guidance of tuikku. I am amazed at what tuikku have done to his 200cdi and am currently going thru his post here in turbot. It is very difficult as I do not know Finnish. I have not gone thru the posts but am learning a lot of useful inf...
