really well actually. i have a supercharger kit as well as a turbo kit and i prefer the turbo. The car does not have the sudden kick as the supercharger but its starts to boost at 18k rpm so its not far off. The number one issue is that the MAF gets blown off by the boost pressure off load " in both applications". I'm having a brace made to fix the problem. right now its running 3psi on pump gas because i use it as a gt to travel to Denver. ill have a new video of it more mobile hopefully tomorrow.

Was the work done by you or a local shop? I'm still in the process of completing my 55 swap but forced induction of some kind will be next on the list...

either way, thanks for sharing. i'm really itching to add a turbo to my w215, seems some have been mounting them in the trunk with success?
