The manifold with the individual velocity stacks makes a huge difference. Like I said the normal 5.5 engine starts to lose power and fall off at high rpm around 5000 rpm. With the manifold and getting the right intake length to take into account the Waves that are generated when the intake valve opens and closes keeps the power way up all the way to redline! it is building power, very hard till it hits redline and shifts.
On a side note there is a guy on here from Maryland or PA with a Black w208 clk55 who built some custom headers and a dual 2.5 or 3 inch exhaust system. Car is extremely loud but he runs low 12's in the 1/4 mile. So I think a free flow exhaust makes a difference.

Sorry you had to let her go. I remember when my friend and i picked up some used disks from you a while ago in el dorado because his broke off after a light accident...
I got to see this car and i was amazed by it.
This is what a 202 should have been. 275s in the front if i remember, thats unheard off on a w202
Btw please dont disapoint us on the manifold mods....i have an extra m113 manifold to experiment with

I know this thread is long dead, but ive been trying to find out more info on the velocity stack mod. Does anyone know what RPM these stacks were tuned for ? He mentioned they were set for the 4th wave but never mentioned an rpm or a stack length.
