I Straight Piped My Turbo Diesel Mercedes! Loud Turbo Spool & Weird Cold Starts
Vložit
- čas přidán 18. 01. 2019
- After installing a 3-inch catless downpipe on my Turbo Diesel E320 CDI Mercedes I had to hear it with no mufflers. In this video Matt from Driven Performance and myself, straight pipe the CDI and it sounds awesome and really weird at the same time. I never thought it would sound like this especially at cold start. Comment below what you guys think. Should I install AMG mufflers or leave it alone?

What do you think? Sound good or not your thing?
which engine sounds better ..gas or diesel?
@@cyrilmatthew2995 It depends. My Cummins sounds like Bigfoot farting continuously into a trash can.
It’s better then stock but it sounds like something is loose. It’s a slight wobble noise I keep hearing
I had a 535d and did the same thing but in my opinion diesels sound horrible. There best left alone. Just do your power mods but dont expect them to sound good
u should make a 3.5 inch custom exhaust that would make it for all the turbo noises
Sounds just like a 5.9 Cummins at idle but sounds better under load. I dig it. Cool video.
Nah
Nothing like a 5.9
wtf? It sounds NOTHING like a five9
If anything, it sounds closer to a 6.7
Looks like Alex is in need for some Dollar Shave Club sponsoring.
Never! Grow the beard!
A project on the audio side ?? An Improvement of the Harman Kardon System. I would really like to see something like that.
Fix that metallic rattle.
Sure, transplant a gas engine. Otherwise, that's how a diesel sounds.
@
It seems that you're deaf. Something is rattling, maybe heat shield.
It seems that you didn't read the big letters at 9:00.
Iñigo Zapata 4:58
Yeah, that's the rattle they fixed by 9:00.
11:10 apparently this was the first MB with lane keep assist lol.
When you’re busy you learn to use the leg to steer
Definitely do a secondary solenoid operated bypass that goes through the mufflers! Makes cold starts and normal every day driving a little quieter. The high load, high rpm straight pipe sounds amazing.
I'd say add a resonator from an e55 in the middle to take the harshness out the turbo whine. VGT turbos are a lot harsher whistle then a fixed vane turbo. Or the e63 mufflers which would allow more engine tone with damped turbo whistle. My 7.3 psd with a big turbo has a straight through resonator and muffler. Sounds good a the perfect amount of turbo noise.
Finally! It sounds sick!! I’m happy you went for the catless and straight pipe. Really looking forward for the future progress on this E-Class!
Do something about that red tint in the rear. Boost activate.
It sounds awesome bro!!! Love hearing that turbo spool up.
What I liked back in the day talking in the 80's era the sound of the Mercedes diesel turbo sound. You could tell there was a Mercedes around instead of one of those G.M. diesel.
"this is just normal acceleration"
meanwhile, out the back window, everyones disappearing with a quickness
Ahhh u beat me to it!
most diesels don't sound better unrestricted, imo. I don't hate it, i just think the same mod on any gasoline car would make more of a difference.
nknasi Agreed, however the performance gained from removing the restrictive parts is so worth it.
Sounds like a semi-truck 😂
Diesel 😂
TNBShooter360 yes like a two stroke Detroit Diesel!!!
Did you change your camera because the quality of the video seems way better. But the content as always is the best.
Straight piping a diesel is the way to go. I did that to a Mazda 6 2.0d. I took out the cat and the DPF. I chipped it from 143 to about 170 ps. I also modded the airbox, it was quite restricted. My mpg went from 6.5-6.7 l/100 km to 5.3 l/100 km which is a 25% increase in fuel economy. The car feels a lot faster. I think that's all you need to do to a common rail modern diesel: chip tune it and derestrict the intake and exhaust, don't bother with other expensive upgrades. Now, regarding the exhaust: after I decat and de-DPFed it I was left with the muffler only. I wanted to bypass the muffler so I installed a cheap electric cutout. Works great! The straight-piped sound when the cutout is open is awesome. Inside the car it is barely perceptible but nice until the turbo spools up. Then it is quite a bit louder. Outside it is definitely louder but I don't know how much louder since I always drive it. When I close the cutout it is as silent as before.I think the electric cutout is fine for a diesel since the exhaust gases are not as hot as a gasoline engine so the cheap cutout should last longer than for a gasoline where a vacuum activated cutout would fare better.
The only negative is that on cold morning the engine smells a bit more. I am considering getting a new better flowing cat and installing it after the cutout or even in place of the muffler. What do you guys think?
Kinda sounds like a medium duty truck. I'm all for the turbo whistle though. Is it possible to have healthy bit of whistle and quiet exhaust? Also, when is the silver car avail for purchase? enjoy your vids!!
I'd say using a higher performance air filter would have a very noticeable difference.
Add some kind of mufflers. Dyno Max ultralflows or something.
And any MPG gains in from removing the cat in the down pipe?
This is awesome! If you want more turbo whistle give it an open air intake with the straight pipe. I’ve had a couple of ford power strokes and this set up will whistle! Great job. Loving the videos!
Would love to see you working on a w219 CLS one day .. its basically an E class with a different design ..
Abdelhameed Alotaibi That would be a sweet daily tbh
Let’s see some footage of you going snow drifting! #chicagowinters .. Love your videos!
Alex, I appreciate your work on this diesel car as I commute 45 miles each way here in San Diego. This would be a terrific daily driver car, good power, great economy! Same thing goes for the 'Eco-Vette" as well! The sound is fine with me. It's there, but not too over-the-top. Fabulous content!
Sounds like the Audi R18 TDI LeMans race car. It actually sounds really nice, which I wasn't expecting.
4:17 12:29 California wants to know your location! 🤣
Give it up, dude.
Good for California. I remember that brown soup we used to breathe down here before they cleaned the place up.
I have a w202 220 cdi straight piped. Its not to loud, you hear great turbo whistle and the biggest thing is if you cruise on the highway with like 70 on cruise control you dont hear a difference to the stock exhaust its quiet and comfortable.
My entire life I have always been a huge fan of loud exhaust. Till I bought a house and neighbors knew it was me coming home at 4 am lol so now I prefer a sleeper. I honestly don’t think straight pipes sound good but performance 1st. Does back pressure effect diesel as it does gas? I lost performance with my exhaust system believe it or not.
that sound at cold start. i seem to remember watching a vid off a duramax 7.2 having a similar sound at start up
Another great video Alex!
mentioned the car cover deal to some other people and they've ordered their covers with your code. thanks!
Awesome! Great to hear!!
It’s got a bit of Detroit 71 series rasp (but quieter of course). Love it - I think I want one
I am a low rider fan, so I have seen paint jobs like this, but this is pretty damn good!
I don’t think the camera does justice, these engines sound great with an exhaust. Good job! Thanks for posting
You can actually hear that it's a six cylinder now, which you can't with the stock exhaust. One of the things I didn't like about my E320CDI when I had it. Sounds great, keep it that way. Putting mufflers on will only return it to somewhere near stock again IMO.
Diesels are so popular in the UK they don't really get the love they deserve with enthusiasts, but I've had my fair share of Diesel cars and they're a really nice thing to have, V8 levels of torque with great fuel economy.
Scotty Kilmer disapproves.
😂
Yeah buddy! :)
Those were surprisingly reliable. We have a w211 at 700k miles atm still running
In my neighborhood was a lowered truck with a mural on the tail gate of the truck parked at the beach. The truck had a picture of its self on its tail gate! I'm not a lowered truck guy, but that thing was COOL! I bet there was 10+ hours of work in that tailgate. Gotta respect that kind of passion.
Nice. Was waiting for this video
If you want an even louder turbo get a cold air intake. And if you want some boost in power (not much), get a custom intercooler which will keep the turbo cooler.
Those wot drive byes sound like a straight piped 6.0 power stroke. Sounds good 👌🏽
Definitely it's gonna be a nice mod on this E320 Cdi...
I put a straight stainless steel pipe on my Golf GTI (MK 4,5) with stainless steel muffler (mid & end)...but I couldn't even talk or hear what my wife inside the car was speaking...so I got the stock end muffler and put it back again...I think I'm too old for that loud sound, but with this configuration, I definitely can hear the turbo whistles...and it's pretty cool actually!!! Keep us posted with the E63 end mufflers...it's gonna rule...
if you wanna hear 👂 the turbo well,remove the plastic resonator downstream of turbo charger,and the other resinator after intercooler below the intake manifold,i have done this on mine and i can tell you the sound is sick,then modified swapped amg exhaust system,its sick sick sound.
It sounds great ! Very sporty now ! 👍
I done this to a poor 220CDi and who is sitting in the back hears a really awful noise...In the front though you wont hear any, but i removed the catalitic converter...but it sounds impressive. Since i have nothing more to do i might put back in a new converter and redo the pipes correctly
I did similar on my 2004 e270 cdi. It sounded super deep and meaty and you could hear the turbo whistle under heavier acceleration!
Sounds fantastic on the drive by.
Time to upgrade the fuel system now!
Oh yea! Turbo too, meth injection intercooler, and a bunch of other stuff. Can't wait!!
@@LegitStreetCars You might wanna check the Benz forums, there is a dude from Finland, Tuikku, iirc. He runs dual turbos on one of those. Some 600+HP....
VERY detailed paint job, cringey-fanatic motive but to each their own.
SOUND: From the inside it sounds kinda Meh... BUT . . . from the outside at WOT it sounds AMAZING. I love Diesel and I've accepted it's "shortcomings".
Sounds great, you've got me hunting for one now to go with my 92 w201 m602 turbo, but the CDI"s seem to be alot fewer in Canada. I can't wait to hear it with the new turbo!
That sounds really good... I really enjoy your videos. Looking forward to seeing the 320 progress. Keep up the good work.
Think you need to try resonators where the old mufflers were. Or packed type performance mufflers. Be good to remove the hiss/whoosh and the hollow sound which the packing should do.
That was my favorite video of yours so far. I wonder what CL 55 sounds like straight piped.
Is there any way u can tune it to add fuel?
That is where your power is hiding...
Sounds best straight piped btw
Jim Hopper u mean rolling coal?
Put a cone k&n filter off the front of the turbo your new exhaust tips and call it done! Love it.
I did the same thing to my 98 c250 td. You can hear the turbo and wastegate very good
Not a fan of the religious side of the paint, but it looks just GORGEOUS. Way better than a wrap, the gloss and wetness is amazing.
Nice one 👍
Welcome to the straight pipe club.. I added a x pipe on my e500 left one resonator in the front
One of the best projects on your channel, you had to finish it. These turbo diesel has so much potential!
Lmfaoo cool vid bro not used to the mustache !
Alex, the exhaust will only increase the turbo sound a little...it's way too long and the sound waves can't reach the rear intact. Open the air intake and you will hear what you want to hear...
You need to get a W211 E420CDI to tune. Drove a few of those at the local car importer when they were new (among like all models from A150 to S65AMG). The STOP/START button on the 420CDI gearknob made me first think "whiat's this?" I knew that only V8/V12 versions had that. Then i checked the factory sticker. Did a couple drifts on dry asphalt by mistake . :D
yea i've seen art on cars like that. 70's california had the van scene with some outrageous murals.
that is an awsome paint job.
Well i think yours is a Inline 6, you can remap it to 300-350 Hp with stock internals. you can also build in a new Turbo he internals can go up to 400-500 hp but you need better cooling then...
I really like that exhaust cutout idea Alex!
Do you have a video or any information on deleting the turbo silencers/muffler?
I like the idea of cutouts. As an aside back in the late 70's early 80's we used to have raging keggers right around the corner from where Driven Performance is. Before they reconfigured the runways at O'Hare my buddy had a house right on Irving Park Road and at the end of the side street, you could see the runways. Good times until some pilot would call the cops because he saw the bonfire.
Dude it actually sounds good ,sounds incredible especially on the drive by , i would definitely straight pipe my cdi if i had one after watching this video.
"so let's fire it up and see what a straight pipe cdi diesel sounds like..." "...With Wix you can create a stunning website!"
You are the best whana see your e55 amg in next video!!
Alex if you havnt already check out sk8215 twin charged e55 project with a manual conversion
Exhaust sounds way better. On the other hand, the fleece liner will freeze to your paint, I know for a fact. Those straps ripped away in less than 30 days, that cover is a POS, I replaced with one from Pep Boys.
Yes 🎉 I definitely love the truck
It sounds like a Messerschmitt bf-109 fly by, that's hilarious Love it
I want just such a garage setup. Looks nice!:) Edit: @6:20 Ooh, what a nice CLK ya got there.
I got the 3.5 gonna try this next month can't wait
you maybe want to check out Black Smoke Racing, they have used 320cdi engine on their drifter that sounds awesome :)
Its a straight six, turbo diesel. Thats super rad, exhaust note reminds me of those JDM Supra and Skylines with exhausts but this is a diesel. Diesels can take it
This is just normal acceleration.... cars behind him turn into ants and then dissappear completely lol
Wish there was a wagon CDI. Great video.
Nice paint job, wow!
Damn it sounds great, wanna do it to my '04 BMW 330d
It sounds fantastic.
lol i wish i could get the primary cats off my v10 tdi she would sing but man they are hard to reach
How is that green Jeep Wrangler doing the "CAR DESTROYER" bought?
I straight piped my 2007 E280 CDI if you want you can see it on my channel. I love the sound btw, can't wait for new mods!
Sounds dam good. Love your videos
I think it sounds like an old truck pulling a heavy load up a hill. I like my 320CDI the way it is, quiet, really quick, and very discrete. Having a loud Merc is just so uncool.
Ditto that man!!!
Amg are loud
Yo can you make a vid that you make a straight pipe for a e270cdi w211
I'm looking forward to the injector install. When you play wit fuel timing and load your engine with more fuel, it definitely wakes it up and chnages the sound alot IMO
I notice the difference when doing pulls with my old TDI golf and 24v cummins ram. Looking forward to the next mods!
Hey! If doing this on a car with a converted bumper, what’s the best after market muffler/ exhaust system to use OR where should I look?
Alex,
I would do a single Dynomax Bullet muffler to smooth out some of the rasp. Remember how people used to that with the SLP Loudmouth catbacks on 4th Gen F bodies.
Very good point. I have a couple laying around from my TA.
I bought a silver 05 cdi but was too scared too get it dirty so my mom drives it, then i bought another 05 cdi, then my friend and i flew to Washington to buy her an 05 cdi that needs a little work and she eventually sold it to me, I ended up buying a 06 cdi best codition ever until my girlfriend crashed the frontend. I hope to meet you this spring and track down some parts and share some tunes
I like sleepers, so I like the quite version. Mine still has mufflers and down pipe, but I would like to know the mufferless version with a cat.
Keep it up , you’ll get there eventually. Million subs in the making
Hell it sounds good to me man. I am so tempted to try and buy your other CDI is it’s not sold
I have the exact model of the silver car. Interested? 170 000 miles and counting.
3’ single pipe with a resonator would sound pretty good I think... But if you want the quad exhaust the e63 mufflers are some of the best according to amg community.
Pretty cool though, definitely a unique project!
9:00 My video volume is over 95db, I hear the sirens coming!
yo man, great vid as always. maybe if you have a larger dynamiter exhaust it will sound better or louder? like 3.5"? a few of my friends straight piped their Polo TDis and they sound amazing
