E55 SC on C55
I have the ability to get a low mileage, great condition E55 SC. Can it be swapped to a C55? Has anyone seen it done? If so, what else is needed with the exception of the additional radiator and intercooler pump?

Not worth doing, cheaper to buy a Kleeman. That is unless you wanna have a two of a kind car.

It runs to much boost, you would have to replace the pistons and such to get it to be reliable. the Kleemann runs less boost and is made for the C55. Was just looking at a 2001 E55 with the Kleemann set up running to much boost and they cracked the pistons.

I didnt realize they changed that many internals in order to fit the E55 with the SC. I just thought a larger pulley and a lower compression would do the trick... Thanks guys.
