C43 stage three turbo upgrade
what is the reliability factor of upgrading turbos and going stage three. It is generally said that any increase in horsepower decreases reliability so would pushing 600 hp on a daily driver through upgraded turbos be a bad idea?

Best is 10.8s in a c43 and there weren't upgraded turbos....Spool HPFP, WMI, ECU, TCU tunes. Like mentiioned above to push 600whp safely you are looking to do internal engine work. IF you go that route, be ready to open up that check book
Forged internal components are not cheap, plus we have a "Mercedes Tax" that many aren't aware of

In summary, it's not worth it.
Do :ECUTCU ( and CPC if facelift)
WMI
Wagner ChargecoolerDecatIntake
SpoolAnd brakes / suspension.
When you're bored then get another car.
If you really want to mess with the turbos, hybrids would be beneficial only after all that has been done for abit extra top end which currently where the weak point is .
