Turbo or Supercharger

I have a 2004 E500 and was wondering if any after market companies make a SC or turbo for this vehicle? Please do not flame me and say I should've bought a E55, at the time of purchasing the vehicle there wasn't an E55, and I got the E500 for a very good deal at 18k with only 42k miles

thanks
jb

Kleeman has several packages for the N/A V6s and 8s. Here are their listings for the V8 motors. I believe Renntech and Carlsson might have packages as well....but I might be wrong.

V8 5.0/5.5 Stock engine 306/360 Hp - 460/510 Nm (340/378 lb-ft) 500 Hp/Nm AMG 55 - Hp/Nm

Stage 1 ECU + Kompressor 455/585 500/650
Stage 2 ECU + Kompressor + Headers 475/610 520/675
Stage 3 ECU + Kompressor + Headers + Complete Exhaust 485/630 530/690
Stage 4 ECU + Kompressor + Headers + Complete Exhaust + Camshaft 500/650 540/700

CLK and Just Bought a SL500
Here is what I was told they could do for my SL500. so im assuming they could do it for your E500.

The only thing we
> > sell that will put you in that range is the Renntech lowboost
> > supercharger with intercooler and ECU upgrade. Price is about 15k.

Im going to just do the powerchip, exhaust, green air filter, sprint booster. thats it other than tint, rims, ect. I will just buy a CL600 or 65 next. doesnt make much sense to pay 20-40k to upgrade a car I could buy stock for 15-20k less and more dependable. Just my thoughts.

I would suggest all to avoid HPS from the reviews I've read.

That's new to me

Wow just about a year ago I thought HPS was one of the top aftermarketers for MB. I have not been on this forum for awhile. After just reading a few forums and threads, most issues I read is their lack of time modifying the vehicle and responds on their customers service, I am surprise. Especially that one about a lawsuit last year, well if they keep heading to that direction no one will bother to do business with them.

Thanks for the info Newton.

Cheaper to sell your 500 and upgrade to an E55 AMG..
