....after looking back at the supposed effects, the only numbers that seem right by their estimation is hp and possibly torque. 0-60 and top speed seem way off

88-300CE TWIN TURBO, 99-C43, 05-G55K, 71-280SL, 94-E320 CAB, 08 CLK63 BLACK SERIES
Currency is Swedish Kronor, probably run you about $6600.00 to your door.
It's the leftover old Mosselman kit.
The picture they show is a single turbo kit for a four cylinder.
Both Mosselman and TurboTechnics claim around the same flywheel numbers, 320HP/312lbft torque, but neither has published any dyno numbers.
My just completed TurboTechincs install pulled on a Mustang dyno 195.6HP @ 5500 RPM and 220.4lbft torque @ 4250 RPM. Base line pull pre turbo install was about 30% less then published flywheel numbers.
Add back the 30% and you get 255HP/286lb ft.
Keep in mind this is on a load dyno. An inertia dyno with a 3600 lb vehicle is probably about 18% higher.
Factor the dyno difference in and you get 300HP/338lbft.
Willow Automotive, the shop that did the install was one of the premier Mosselman shops in the USA.
First ever Turbotechnics install by Brian Murphy at Willow who commented that the TT seems to put out more power then the Mosselman when driving due to the intercooler design and location. Mosselman intercooler is sandwiched between the air assembly/throttle body and the hood, whereas the TT is low on the passenger side chassis rail parallel to the engine in an air stream.
Car is running sub six second 0-60 times.
"six hours" assembly time, maybe in an alternate universe !!!!!

LOL...
Well if you're looking to find W124 body kits for "sale" then good luck, but if you're looking to find distributors for WALD kits then you might be in luck.
Also, TWS is still selling a WALD V4 kit for a W124 CE and it comes with everything along with the fog lights. Jorge picked this up but returned it because he's a menso and didn't want to mod the sideskirts to fit his sedan.
the price is $1,500 firm. Which is cheap for a kit IMHO.

PM me your offer. I'll probably just ask the same as I charged Justin (rivcal4life) or a little bit cheaper to get rid of them as I have them sitting in my backyard boxed and I could use the extra space to store other things.
