Should I get 550hp on my c55 ?
Hello w203 amg fans,
I have the opportunity of adding a supercharger on my 5.8 engine should I do it?
In theory I am assuming I will also need to install a good LSD
for traction?
To give you a few info about my car it has 120'000 miles but the engine "only" 50'000 miles due to the overall and increase displacement ... suspension system same thing since I installed Bilstein Coil-overs.
The goal at the end is to make my c55 like new so spending a little more to change parts is ok since I love this Benz
Please let me know what you guys think

I seen some videos on YouTube showing C55s with 600hp, but I'm not sure if they had the stock transmission or modified. Does anyone know how much power can the stock transmission take?
