Turbo Kit for W204?
 
http://cgi.ebay.ca/MERCEDES-BENZ-W20...item27b15159a8

Any thoughts? :confused:

Looks like a universal kit. If you go check out his other items for sale, it's the same kit for other cars as well. They basically packaged all of the general parts together and tell you to find your own down pipe, manifold, engine management, etc. Check their description:

* Not all parts are bolt-on. Universal piping kit will need to be custom modified at an exhaust shop to adjust for the correct bends. *
* Requires a down pipe which needs to be connected to existing exhaust. A custom adapter needs to be fabricated from a place such as an exhaust shop. *
* Other parts you need or should get is Turbo Manifold, Boost Controller, Turbo Timer, and Engine/Fuel Management System. *
* Professional Installation is Highly Recommended (No Instructions Included)!! *

You would want a model-specific kit. I have had non-turbo cars that were converted. It's possible and rewarding with ready-made kits, but it's best to upgrade turbo charged cars, not add turbos to NA cars. The engine management would be difficult and expensive. You would probably stand-alone management. W204 V6 would be best with a twin turbo set up anyway. Stay away from that kit.

That makes sense. Not that I was going to act on it, and without much knowledge about the whole conversion business, I just found that listing awfully awkward...lol

The C300 has high compression too. You would likely need to lower it by using taller head gaskets or take some other measure.

Sounds like Kleemann has abandoned the forced induction kit for the M272 too. Probably not going to any options for serious power for our little engines, except for the Brabus 4.0 stroker conversion. But at $30K it just doesn't make sense.

that is just too much money for that. why not go with amg with 30k extra?! :confused:

I was hoping someone come out with a ems for our cars.

When you say Turbo Charger, do you mean supercharger vs the turbo in this post?

If so, which one would be better in our NA engine cars? Supercharger, or turbo? Is Twin turbo any different?

Here are the parts you'd need to rear mount turbo the engine. M272 would more or less share the same parts as M113.

The proverbail "other shoe" drops...may as well save up a bit more for a used C63.

Azn_C300 05-03-2010 12:28 PM

That's not even including labor ;)

Hey, but a turbo for under 4 grand on M113 is not a bad price. just hope ecu tuning won't cost as much :D

buffyclk500 05-03-2010 12:46 PM

a custom tune will start at like 800 then 100 per hour

wsong1987 01-22-2012 11:25 PM

so how many hours of are we looking at?
anybody can estimate total cost (parts+labor)?
How much gain on HP?

BauerR 01-23-2012 09:18 AM

Don't know how much boost you would want to throw at this motor anyway. 11.4-1 c/r is high.

agedog2gt 01-24-2012 11:50 AM

This looks too be just a headache ang huge money pit. Just save up for an amg, right?? just my .02

Stevedotmil 01-24-2012 12:34 PM

Why is this thread not deleted yet? Someone has already done this and it wasn't very cost effective. The car is still for sale if I'm not mistaken. Rear mounted because there isn't enough room up front.

Eurocharged.

And if you are not extremely good with turbo upgrades, full install would be about $10K.

If one must have more power, occasionally, NO2 kits with oxygen rich fuel tanks are a genrally proven upgrade, easily installed, that could be added for much less $$$. Again, extreme focus on set-up and use is mandatory to avoid a blown up trunk ... just from the energy of a highly pressured tank, NO2 or just air.
