I looked into it before I got my X5M and couldn't come up with anything. I would have loved to of tried it but the 6.2L motors made me a bit nervous.

Hello, why did it make you nervous, what are you concerned about specifically?

I think that an ML63 with Weistec would be an interesting proposition. It would definately need a break upgrade i reckon if you wanted to exploit all that additional power, given the weight if this beast. Straight line it would be a deadset monster but the cornering would be tough!

Do a google search for X5M problems.

Plenty of issues with those cars, starting with the engines.

I can't think what the fuel consumption would be. Might have to put a bigger tank in!

We have done quite a few of these in both the Stage 1 and Stage 2 systems. The ML63 is an extremely fun car with the added power. All wheel drive is a beauty. Let us know how we can assist. Thanks!

OT but I think the better question to ask is if you guys have ever supercharged an R63

staying on topic, a stock ML63 was enough to get my heart racing; wonder what a weistec'd ML would do

Don't think it's been done on the R, from all the research that I've done.

We have done the R as well! Very cool SUV you have by the way. The R63 is a cool sight to see. Not to many around.

We are creating a video of the ML63. The R might be a challenge.

Can you share what state the R is in or what color it was?

The system was shipped out the country. If I recall it was black.

Is it true that your header pipes are only good for LH drive?
That RH drive headers need modification?
cheers

That would certainly seem typical. The steering shaft, and possibly the starter motor, could be in different spots on a RH drive car.
