IIRC, on the old MBZ.org lists there was a diesel list for the purists and a diesel tech list moderated by Jamie Kopchinski (sp?) that was dedicated to increasing the output and performance of the beloved MB diesel. A paraphrased quote from Jabba the Hurst. "Most MB purists believe that if God would've wanted your Mercedes to come with it, He would've told the engineers at Stuttgart, and they'd have made it that way." As far as diesel hotrodding goes, either you learn to speak Finnish or go over to the forums at BuyMBParts and speak with Dave M. He is THE MAN when it comes to intelligent modifications to diesel Mercedes...
