![]() ![]() Even if you have the most expiereince in the world MB cars are a different animal all together. If that is what you consider power then you will have no friends when it comes time when complicated issues arrise with your car. Here knowledge is not power, it is what the performance guys strive for. Cost a lot of money by just maintenance alone.heheh What is the best upgrade (horse power talk) for slk? I heard change to larger pulley?,etc. Well, I might miss something else but I think thats good for now.hehe I wish I can do more to add power on my Slk but I rather leave it bone stock. msd sparkplug wire/turbo ngk spark plug/msd 6a (Ignition system more spark for you buck)hehe turbo timer ( works good in hot weather) I dont know about wide band Oxygen sensor since mine works fine with aftermarket catylec convertor. Bolt on exhaust at less 3'' pipe works good on turbo. Cast manifold is more durable than Iron? I used cast Full synthetic oil to help cool down that turbo Aftermarket Fuel injector easiest way to increase fuel flow/ or B&M fuel regulator. FMU (Fuel management unit) most turbo set up required (bypass the fuel line) MAF change to aftermarket MAF to trick the ECU otherwise check engine light will show at high boost. Here are some stuff I have to focus on when I did greddy T3-T4turbo on japanese car. I think both have there own weakness, but turbo can always be upgradeable and not sure much on SC since it's belted to pulley? Turbo (supra/civic) seem little slow on first gear due to Turbine needs spin on certain high rpm in order to create boost horsepower= torgue?. ![]() Heres are my experienced about driving sc car (slk) The slk has better pull on starting point (torgue) is always there at all rpm. It is not hard if you study the systems, research how others have solved the key problems and are willing to do some metal work. The only things stopping me from doing it are (1) I don't really have the time these days, (2) I don't feel like tearing my daily driver apart to install new engine internals and (3) the price of forged pistons & rods is a bit of a put-off. I won't hand out the answers here, but I'll just say there's more than one way to get more fuel into the cylinders than through the existing injectors. If you do your homework, you too can learn this "black art of the turbo". It doesn't even require fuel map reprogramming. Of course, a very simple and elegant solution to the "extra fuel" problem was devised by Reeves Callaway back in the early 1980s. Lean operation and high boost levels make bad things happen. The kicker is getting it to do its magic without running you into the limits of your fuel delivery system and running you lean. It isn't rocket science as far as the hardware (turbocharging is actually very simple). You could easily custom-design a system, figure out the piping bends required, mounting locations, etc. It's completely doable, it's always just a question of time and money. Or another solution (I know of a good one, but it's a trade secret.). ones properly) or a standalone EMS (big $$$ for a good one). To really uncork that setup you'd need highly modified chips (and I don't know that anyone has figured out how to reprogram the M.B. Have one flow tested before anything else! I really like the notion and wish you all the very best. Most try working with the OEM EMS?ECU and with MB it seems possiblly better results could be attained with the OEM electornice not even detecting the controllers!!!! Just food for thought. It is of my opinion that you should run some base line dynos, install an wide band O2 sensor for air/fuel ratios, and maybe run a piggy back fuel injector that the OEm ECu does not even know is there. From the looks of the kit the air filter will not be shieled from the engine bay hot air. He stated the he had to run a MAF clamp as the engine would go into limp mode at 12psi! Ensure fuel and coling upgrades are sufficient and you may be on to a working setup. He tried the Haltech EMS but with very mixed results. His problem was tyring to add addittional fuel injectors when upgraded injectors may have been the way to go. Speedwerx rana T-3/T=4 Garrett a few years back when the M111 came in the C230. Hagmann out of Germany ran a twin charging setup like Jim Wolf did with the M45 in the Mini Cooper. Kit does seems to look good and there have been others who have turboed the m111 engine. ![]() No EMS/ECu relflash makes your fuel problem a potential deal breaker. Noticed the kit has no upgraded fuel injectors and the piping bends before and after the intercooler look like the bends are to wide but that would be the least of your worries.
