I think it should. You will need the supercharger, injectors, fuel rails, all pulleys including crank pulley and all accessory pulleys. All belts as well. You will have to find a way to control the supercharger internal bypass valve and the clutch pulley. Then you have to get a voltage clamp if you are retaining the stock MAF sensor and try and tune around this (not easy), fuel pump and intercooling too. I would try and get the whole engine, transmission, ecu and loom instead.

his engine has 284K miles and some things are broken up front the intercooler is crushed, this sounds as a big project maybe later i do it but i will maybe purchase the supercharger its $100 its high mileage,it needs to be removed and the car is not clean !

Oil can get acidic, so it should be changed every year, but that's not what has happened with yours. In this case, it's moisture, probably due to condensation. Some good spirited driving that gets the engine up to full operating temp will likely clear that up.

Yeah, I was going to say Italian Tune-Up, but I figured half the audience would not understand.

Half? Given my age and the number of decades that have passes since I first heard that term, I would lower that estimate to about 10%!

That said, I find that a weekly "tune up" is still as good for the soul as it is for the 5.0L V-8's combustion.

Rodney, I'm a new Forum member and you have already taught me much about my CLK. Thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge and experience.

I was trying to be nice. I get in trouble for Millennial-bashing.

I try to get my car out on the freeway for some good exercise at least once a week, but it hasn't been happening a lot lately because of all the rain.

You know what they say..."Sitting is the new smoking!" I guess it's true for car engines, too.
