Yeah, I know. It's worth trying out! I'm just trying to bring some reason into the picture too. On a day-to-day basis though, the turbo is better for accelleration not top speed. So after you've tested it out once or twice, maybe you should just enjoy its quickness rather than top speed!!

I agree with you, after all I rather have a frequent pleasent 20 mph to 50mph, than a seldom 70 mph to 120 mph.

Well hope fully Chris will be able to post the pictures I sent him this morning

pics please! I am desperate to see how the w124 does with the mosselman turbo. Have you gotten it to a track yet? I have my results on my 300ce from 2 track runs so I could use those as a baseline against your results.

I guess the total cost was arround $ 8,500.00 (Yes I know, totally insane, crazy, silly) I think it can be done for alot less. But european parts imported to the US are rather expensive.

I realized the problem. When you're looking at the full size pic on imageshack, right click and hit "copy image location". I think you must be cutting and pasting the url from the address bar and for some reason that doesn't work.
