Took an amateur 0-60 of my 1999 C43 5.4. Car has engine swapped from an 2002 CLK55. Mods to the car include:
Speed43 custom air box, elbow,MAF upgrade and C63 exhaust. Swap has been in car for over 2 years with no issues.

Thanks for the idea Kowalski. Speed43 mods really woke up the 5.4. To begin with it is such a drastic change from the stock 4.3 which is not bad at all.

timed it several times and it looks to be around 5.2 seconds. shaving .6 off 0-60 is no joke!

Now if someone could figure out how to swap a M156 into a W202...
