Louder Turbo Spool?
Hey Guys, anyone have any ideas on mods that would help achieve a louder turbo spool sound? Im a big fan of the sound and was wondering if maybe different air filters would help?

OP also has an E550 coupe with the M278 V8-biturbo. Sounds like your coupe may have been tuned by the previous owner and have some renntech parts. I think it's wise to figure out what has been done to it, especially exhaust wise.

Thanks rediesel..to be quite honest, the dealer gave me a bunch of fluff about renntech wheels and exhaust which I truly doubt the car has. But that's mainly due to my research on the Renntech website in which they don't appear to offer a Renntech exhaust for the E550. The exhaust definitely does not sound stock it has a very nice growl to it IMO. Sounds almost like a tame version of the C63 exhaust. I wouldn't be surprised if all my car had was a resonator delete ![Stick Out Tongue](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)

Where are you located? We just finished our V12 BOVs and would love to have an offering for the 550s. If you're in Chicago and feel like being a test car, we'd give them to you. ![Smilie](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

There aren't a lot of options out there for the M278 engine. Weistec has perfomance air filters, http://weistec.com/all/e/e-550/2012-...m157-m278.html but I'm not sure how much that would add. They also have a full exhust kit but it's nearly $6k. What kind of brakes are on your car?
