All i know frm friends who have this kit is that you have to do alot of modification to it to make it run better.


this kit is a nightmare. Search forum member AMGSC who had this kit a while back.

The thing I don't like about the add is that it advertises for a V6 or V8 which would be impoasible. The kit would be made Specifically for a V6 or a V8. So it really makes no sense at all. Guess one would have to speak to the seller for some clear clarification.

This kit would definitely have to be modified to make it work properly.

By the way O.T. Whatever happened to your 5.5L purchase?

I hear ya! If only you were able to see it,I'd be more confident in making a decision. To me it's an easy fix if there is no other damage. But I cannot blame you due to the distance from where u live. They take 1500.00 or less, I might hit them up for it.

I'm surprised you never tried to put a nice Vortech kit on your car. Those guys from HOP are supposed to masters of putting vortech's on M112 and M113 motors.

talked to the guy today with the supercharger...hell be sending me pics.

Also he verifed that he made a mistake in the posting. Its for the V8m113 engines only.


Now that i think about it your right the sig is kinda long..will do some editing


if everything comes out good and we set up a safe payment arrangement just incase this is a bogus deal im gonna buy the charger and have techtune and mertd93 who have this kit on there sl500s change everything out to better components.

$800 High Flow SC inlet

$650 Intercooler
$900 Interchangable Pulley Kit +2.4lbs
$1160 LET Dyno Tune


This package will net approximately 170-180HP
