The Kleemann superchargers will fit on the M113 engine family. I think that Mercedes started installing them in the 129 body SL in 99 or so.

I have seen a MUCH LESS refined kit offered by Koenig where they fit a cintrifugal type to the side. This is a really poor design, but the only one available for the 119 engine.

Here in Europe, they changed in 1997 from the 119 to the 113, there might be a chance that you have the right engine.

Check if you have 1 spark plug pr. cyl or 2, if you have 2 pr. cyl, you can be the lucky owner of a KLEEMANN SC.

First off, this thread is six and a half years old. Secondly, the M119 remained in the SL500 until 1999, regardless of where the car was sold. Koenig and Albrex offer the only two kits I've seen for the M119. Good luck getting a hold of them though. For any 99+ model, look into Kleemann. They have been offering some great deals lately.
