SC of the E55 on the c32? can it be done?
Does anyone try to retrofit the sc of the E55 on the c32 motor? performance output? boost? i think the e55 one is larger in lenght as it sitted on the v8. the air runners of the e55 can be cutted and c32 one can be welded.

Hooleyboy put a 55k AMG blower on his C55. it was a bit more costly than going with a Kleemann s/c after all was said and done, but certainly possible.

I'm curious about the E55 S/C on a C32. Never heard of anybody trying it before.... I'm guessing you could cut off two of the runners and weld them closed? It must be longer though so I wonder about fitment issues.

if you use the e55 intercooler as well...i think it would be a easy way of upgrading the intercooler as well. I think the problem is, i haven't seen any cheap e55 superchargers. There all pretty expensive what I seen.

That sounds like a year's supply of migraine headaches in the making.

i think putting a e55 sc would be onto a c32 would be easier then what hooleyboy did on his c55. Long as the sc can fit dimensionally. I think the problem would be if the e55 sc is longer then the c32 one. Then the sc clutch would extend past the pulleys.

regarding the intercooler, Hooleyboy i think is working on some intercooler prototypes, for sure for the M113k, specifically for his SL55.
if there is interest for an intercooler for the C32, let me or him know (or post it on here) and maybe we can get something in the works super fast (i'm leaving AZ on July 17th and won't be here for the next 10 days)
