Red face FBO E350

looking to start building an FBO E350. if anyone has a link to headers (i know of supersprint's) please send them. any links to bigger fuel injectors, link to a big camshaft, and any reputable tuning shops. preferably near florida or maryland. also does an E63 AMG of my same year have a better intake manifold/ air intake? if so, is it just a swap?

As someone who has an e350 and has been trying to find some power-adding mods, there is not a lot of aftermarket support out there. You’ll end up spending 2k on custom headers, another 2500 for a catback, etc. If you’re looking to put money into your benz, sell it and get an e550. 2k tune from Renntech bumps it from 400hp/400tq to 500+hp/700tq.

My E350 is tuned, only big thing is the removed speed limiter (and burbles)

My tune was from OETuning, and in total was 650. That included the handheld tuner and tune.

I did mine thru OETuning, they claim about 30hp. Being a naturally aspirated engine, there isn't a whole lot of power gain. I mainly did it for the removed speed limiter (This car is capable of 160mph+), throttle response, and burbles.

This is a pull (in Mexico), where I have one muffler (of the two) off, with the burble tune.

My car is currently straight piped as I am in the process of installing an x-pipe in place of the resonator. Its too loud for me, but I've been fooling around a bit until I get the chance to install the x-pipe (hopefully this weekend).
These are the burbles with that

I do want to add that OETuning is pretty hard to reach after a month or so of purchasing your tune. I was looking to have my speedo uncapped (it stops at 160), and they never responded to my e-mail.
Tune works good and also allows you to flash back to stock tune
