02 W208 CLK55 Cabriolet, 2000 W163 ML55
Talking 2017 w208 clk430 street buld (TURBO)

Hi all. Before I start i just want to say that MB-world has been a great resource to me and I am very appreciative to all the members and their knowledge.

So, I recently got a new job at a custom shop called Three Pedals LLC. As an employee I get deals on parts and cheaper labor plus I can use the facilitys. On top of that one of my mechanic coworkers (Larry) holds the record for most powerful monoblock E55 (he built it).

With all this I have decided to build my 2001 clk 430.

What I plain to do:
80mm turbo (Larry's)
Intercooler
Cams
Ported head
Front strut brace
Front lower brace
Mid lower brace
brakes
amg sway bars
amg rear diff
amg transmission
Tune

My car is the "sport" edition so I'm not sure if the sway bars and diff are any different. If they are then I was going to switch to the amg parts. Also does anyone know if a 430 torque converter will fit on an amg trans?

I need to know:
is the amg rear diff any better?
are the amg sway bars any better?
will the 430 torque converter fit the 55 trans?
what size intercooler will fit?

Please let me know if you can answer any of these questions.

I will post pictures of the build.
