So guys, I have been debating on whether to be unique and do something I have yet to see, or whether to just become part of the AMG herd. While I love the AMG's, I also love my CLS550 and want to do something different with it.
Here's the idea, in crude terms;
Rear mount twin turbo set up with it's own oil supply with an FMIC.
Obviously, a lot more goes into this, been around 2JZ's for a while and boosting isn't new to me.
However, engine management is my main concern? Do these ECU's allow maps to be changed to accommodate the turbocharged pressure? Would engine management be the largest concern most of you have as well?
Thoughts and input is appreciated as I will start compiling a list necessary to move forward with the project.
I follow most of what you are planning here. "been around 2JZ's for a while and..." No sure what you mean here.
Anyway, if your car is betwen 2006 and 2009 model years, I would do one very important check before adding the kind of money you are thinking of adding.
Compression check on all cylinders! I would want them all to be better than the factory 5% delta before adding any load to the lower end.
The M270, M271 and M273 engines, built between 2006 and 2009 have valve guides with inadequate heat treatment. The hardness is not sufficient to resist wear and leaks develop. Valve guide leaks = low compression.

Thanks!
Back from the dead! Don't suppose you ever figured out an answer to the ECU question?
I think the Bosch Me9.7 can be made to work with boost, but torque based with no wastegate control that I've found so far.
Had great gains NA using Winols, I don't see why we cant have a higher expected tq to make room for boost
I'm in the middle of trying to rear mount a single on a e550
Revived again.. Has anyone done this on an m273 yet? Didn't even know there were benz DIY tuners on here but glad to see it. I want to do something to my e550 coupe as well probably dual relay turbos. I had heard that relays do not make much power is this true?

Searching for the same thing here. Following. It makes me upset that no one makes performance parts for this model. 😭… understandable.. But damn nadda? Alls people wanna do are copy and paste builds lol
