KCPerformance is known for getting more power out of any engine. One of the engines that we have developed multiple stages for is the OM642 V6 diesel from Mercedes. These engines are good to produce heaps of reliable power. Around 2011 Mercedes updated this engine with a better turbo, this is a ball bearing and water cooled turbo. We already installed this turbo on the previous OM642 but this was our first new generation OM642.

This client came to us to give his S350 BlueTec some more power. After removing the ECU, we could start modifying the engine management. This was adjusted to get the most power out of the car without the risk of a clogged DPF. Therefore, we developed a KCPerformance Stage 1+ Chiptuning. After some test drives and measuring, we came to a perfect balance of performance gains and reliability.

When the customer picked his car up he was very satisfied with the gain in power. His car now didn't feel sluggish or heavy. He is looking forward to stage 2!
