M104 Performance parts?

Are there any good ones anywhere? I'm thinking if i get an aftermarket intake, headers, exhaust, cpu chip, spark plugs, etc (bolt-on upgrades), I might be able to get aroud 300hp out of it. Anyone know where I can find these upgrades for it?

Hey, jut figured I'd ask just in case there was something out there to give this car some *****. But from the sound of things this car will probably just stay a turd.

I could throw an LS1 or ls2 in it. It'd be cheaper/easier to upgrade than an amg engine too. **** a few bolt ons and **** done to an ls2 would put out as much power as the supercharged 55 amg engine, but naturaly aspirated.

MB’s of all kinds.
The E320 is a pretty quick car....At least mine is. 0-60 I have timed 6 seconds. If you want real performance you bought the wrong car. Look into a W210 E55. There is a fella on here however who does Turbo M104 Motors. I cant remember his name but hes got a 1997 E320 Turbo and shes a beast.

Bro.....you must be in the wrong forum?!?! Were are not trying to insult you...but, I do need to ask.. why? If you really wanted a faster car with ***** buy one. The time and money you would put into your inline 6 to boost to the bottom end would cost you big time. my0.02

Iv'e got a video

someplace on youtube of me in a 300E doing 135+. the M104 is quicker to that mark. If this kid had the ***** of the car instead of thinking the car lacks the *****
he would be a wiser child indeed. I smell a turd and it ain't his car

I would really like a w208 clk55. I still plan on getting one in the near future. I just got this as a nice daily driver. Picked it up for $5500 and its in decent shape. I just wanted to do a little customising and i was just wondering if anyone knew of any small bolt on performance parts i could add to give it a little more power. I went from a '99 Z28 to driving this, so you must understand why I'm dying to have a fast car again. Sorry if it seemed like a stupid question.
