Thanks, lol I was thinking about that. The sound will only get better once the intake, headers, and exhaust are done in the next couple weeks! The car definitely has trouble putting that power down off the line. I see a LSD in my future. Lol

Finally! 5 year wait to see what happened.. read your thread when i joined the forum and have been waiting anxiously to find out if it runs! you should have just come by lebanon. They are installing range rover twin turbo engines in BMW E34s and E55 engines in w208s. I suppose the major problem in your build was your ECU talking to your EIS?

Good to know things worked out man. Welcome back to the forum! I had a friend that installed an E55 engine in a w208. The main problem was the car not starting from the EIS, turns out it was SBC brakes that were the problem. The EIS (as a safety feature i guess) wouldn't let the engine start without having an SBC module installed and running. So he went ahead and retrofitted SBC brakes to a w208. Can handles like **** though.. haha

Wow Wes, that's a sick car! The color on that is beautiful.
Are your mirrors just covers or full CF mirrors?
How wide are your rear wheels/tires?

Thank you, a lot of time and energy into this thing. Can't believe it's 11 years old. They are full CF with the new style signal. The rear tires are 265

Here's the link (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mercedes-Benz-W209-02-09-CLK-Class-6K-CARBON-FIBER-Arrow-LED-Side-Mirror-Cover-/171108571425?hash=item27d6dd9921&vxp=mtr)
Thanks, for now just have to finish the intake, headers, exhaust and the center console with double din. I already have the facelift upper and lower controls with the carbon fiber trim. Waiting on the double din trim to be finished so I could install a Pioneer 7' I have. After that a Eurocharged dyno tune and I will be all set for while. I would really love the stone carbon hood, but that's for later,

Those exhaust tips are interesting - what kind of set up do you have? Any sound clips?
edit: just saw everything on your other thread, nice set up! Love all the CF pieces that you have on the car, it really pulls everything together

just noticed where you are from. I'm from paramus.
Where did you find some of the carbon fiber parts, best i could find the interior for is $1500, i also like the piece behind the license plate/

I'm from Ridgefield. I found them all scattered around. The interior I did with a sponsor on the board. Sent them out to China to get done. Think I oaid $1,900 for everything. I definitely have a thread about it
