2009 GL320 "upgrades"
Hello everyone,
I've been the "proud" owner of a 2009 GL320 that I picked up for a great price from someone that shouldn't have owned a Mercedes... I've already worked through a bunch of issues and the truck is driving fine. However, there are still some lingering issues... for one, it seems either the turbo isn't stock or someone has messed with the charge pipe... it is not sealing great to the turbo, so blows through the o-ring over time.
I'm looking to do some upgrades that will hopefully take care of those issues... anyone replaced that pipe with the resonator or done a delete mod? That whole area has been tampered with and I'd like to just do a mod or something that will fix it once and for all... any ideas?
Also, any other suggestions what to do with the engine or useful upgrades? I'd like to do a def delete, but that will have to wait for now...
Thanks for any suggestions
