Now we can say for sure that also the Crank has been changed by the previous owner... i'm thinking to take it off in order to finish the map!
If the ECU of your car has not been remaped, there is no way to rise the boost more than 0,78bar. Only the C230 has different remap from the factory and the boost rise to 0,9bar. The MB factory ECU SIM4LKE use the settings from the map which calibrates the boost in order to set the boost. Even with the bigger crank pulley you will not be able to rise the boost without remaping the ECU. When the ECU reads more than the maximum boost then it opens the electronic by pass valve which is located at the back of the SC inorder to keep the boost at the preset level.
You must tell to the tuner that will tune your car to rear the programm from your ECU from the OBDII in order to check with an OEM ECU file if there is any changes The M271 map sensor limites out at 1bar and the is no way to see more boost from 1,1bar overboost without changing the OEM map sensor with a bigger one.

Sorry...i forgot to mention that he did and drown the map and he was settin it in the car and testing it when, during the dyno, happened that problem!
Unfortunately i don't have so much time (even if i would like so) to spend over the car...i will set it with a standard crank pulley and keep the modded SC pulley and the map again. I know,maybe, i could go on with the two modded pulleys but too many tests/time and too much skills required...and unfortunately, now, i don't have both of them.
Anyway, i want to thank you for your explanation, you're very kind, and we'll see around the web very soon i bet!

Sportcoupe SE C180K + SC C180K Indianapolis
I am very interested in this discussion. I have a c 180K M271 so I suppose the SC pulley is 72mm and the crank pulley is 175mm.
I want power up my SC so as I understand is I have to do a 65mm SC pulley and keep the 175m pulley. Of course I have to improve the IC and do the remap. Am I right?
on the other hand what about changing the fuel pump? what is the fuel original fuel pressure?

  • If you want to spin up your SC you can:
1. Change the SC pulley (not worth the money for the pulley and the labor) or
2. Make bigger crank pulley, smaller water pump pulley and other belt (expensive) or
3. Change your SC and put one from the C230 or from the facelift engine with the 184Hp (their SC has 65 pulley) which is the best solution and you can sell your SC.
  • Without remap you will do nothing.
  • The fuel pressure is 3,8bar. Even with bigger fuel pump you will not be able to increase it because the fuel pressure regulator (FPR) is located in the fuel filter (if your car is prefacelift) or in the tank (facelift). If your car is PF you can put a FPR aka Kleemann and if it is FL you have to change the FPR which is in the tank. The max pressure you can set is 5bar. For my opinion itis better to keep the OEM 3,8bar pressure and if after the remap your fuel injectors max out then put bigger.

If I go for option number 1 the pulley should be of 65mm? The intercooler which one I need? Does a universal one with the piping on each side be fine? The remap and that's it?

  • If you change the SC pulley and make a custom one the smaller you can make is 62mm. Make sure that the pulley is made from inox and not from alluminum because it is too thin. If you made it from iron you must electrostatic paint it because from the rust. If you try to put a 65mm OEM pulley you have to take the SC apart and try to press the pulley on the snout (the front section). If you try to press the pulley on the SC you may destroy the front bearing and the seal. For me change your SC with one which the pulley is 65mm.
  • The best IC for us is fron MKB or VARTH. They are expensive but they are fine. You can put a universal one but you will find out if it is good only when you will test it.
  • Before start spending money, talk with the person that will remap your ECU. If he can rase the boost at 1Bar then go on. If not don't do anything. Without the damos files for the SIM4LKE you can't remap the M271. With a "can" programm will earn 20-25Hp max.
Again it is your car and your call. I hope that everything will work for you fine.

PS, You can see in the fotos an inox 62mm sc pulley I have made some years ago.

M271 crank - water pump pulley dimensions aka Kleemann

You can also make custom set modyfing the OEM crank pulley. Details on the foto:

Making the crank pulley I've got to change the ic as well I suppose. Is it more reliable for the sc life this option? What would be the boost pressure? On the other hand I've been searching for the headers, sometime ago a saw obx headers but now I cant find them. On the other hand, I just for my curiosity is there anyone who has turbocharged our motor?

Ιf you put bigger crank pulley you have to make water pump pulley smaller and new belt. These pulleys were used from kleemann with the boost kit. The boost pressure can be raised from the ecu.
You can turbocharged your engine. A friend of mine has done it and manage to make 300Hp @ crank with 1bar boost. You can check http://www.slkworld.com/performance-...o-project.html and the video:

WOW, that is what I was looking for. What do you think about doing it to our cars? I like the project not only because of the power but the project.

Dear Gogos,

Could you send to me contacts of ChipTunes, who have Damos files?
I try amazon link but that lot was closed.
Maybe you have emails?

Dear SergeSLK, i've tried to find DAMOS for sim4lke, and found than no one wants to share it for free. I've found it only in one place and the price was near 250$, what is too much, i think.

And now I have a question, may be it is possible to make ECU remap with MB StarDiagnosis?

Yes, its possible.
I'm waiting for Star Diagnosis right now, ordered it.
After receiving I will learn how to to that.

CLK 200 KOMPRESSOR W208
Can you do this to my W208 CLK 200K, I will pay you.

Hello from Greece. After two years of studding EATON MP45, the SC on the MB M271 motor, I decided to make an effort to improve its characteristics. The Specific SC is positive displacement type roots 45ci or 750cm3 of air per revolution. The SC type roots, are the most inefficient because first they consumed about 25hp from the engine at 15.000rpm (imagine what the DRAW 22.000rpm) and second after that speed limit the air due to compression gets very hot, with known negative effects on engine performance. This is why the AMG monsters are using "twin screw", and no "roots". Finally, MB saw the competition and turned at last to turbo.
In USA, where the SC is a must in tuning, there is no serious improving the MP45, and I had to start from scratch. After seeing many-ported SC I decide to do some porting work, ie opening the exit port, normalization and polishing the air intake on the back and closing the four holes of air relief. For the holes, I did not use jb weld or so but I make cups from aluminum. In order the cups to stay in place I cut pieces of industrial rubber plate 10mm thickness and fill the holes in both sides of the sc exit, as you can see in the pictures.
Let us see in what rpm the EATON rotor spins, from OEM until the upper limit it can spin with custom crank - sc pulley:
1. Crank 175mm / supercharger 72mm = 2,43 gearing X 6.200rpm = 15.100 (All the 163hp with the 2080, 2180, 2380 etc.
2. Crank 175mm / supercharger 65mm = 2,69 gearing X 6.200rpm = 16.700 with the 184hp and 192hp with the 2780
3. Crank 175mm / supercharger custom 62mm = 2,82 gearing X 6.200rpm = 17.500
4. Crank 195mm/supercharger 65mm = 3 gearing X 6.200rpm = 18.600 (Kleemman)
5. Crank 195mm / supercharger 62mm = 3,14 gearing X 6.200rpm = 19.500
6. Crank 195mm / supercharger 65mm = 3 gearing X 7.000rpm = 21.000
7. Crank 195mm / supercharger 62mm = 3,14 gearing X 7.000rpm = 22.000 which is the maximum you can spin the MP45 in M271, because there is no space for other pulley combination. For the limit of 22.000rpm will need several interventions in functionality, such as oil cooling system for the oil in the snout drive gears and lighting the rotors by 30-40% in order to reduce parasitic losses and affect the reliability of as much as possible.
First a 2080 MP45 was selected, a 62mm pulley was placed and apart from the work of porting it was partially rebuilt: the coupler was replaced, the oil was changed, the housing has been polished inside with special OINTMENT Unipol, the o-ring filler cap was changed and also the special grease blue color Beveroil (Lilac) inside the back bearing.
In order to replace the front bearings of the rotors you have to take them apart and it is very difficult to put them together because you need special timing machine to reinstall them properly. I would not recommend someone to dare. The opening of the air outlet was made on a mill and the polishing by hand and custom made flexible with long nose to polish the most part and not hurt the inside of the housing where the rotors are turning and damage the SC.
The SC was spinning for 7 days at 21.000rpm and then "caboom". Second attempt with another 2080, was also end in 7 days with another broken SC. My conclusion is that the 2080 cannot spin more than the 19.500rpm. When opened, the drive gears were destroyed.
Third attempt was made with a 2780 from C230 which use a spring for the rotation and not the plastic coupler, which is spinning many months now without problems.
Spinning the SC more than 19.500rpm causing too much stress and high temperature inside the snout and the SC brake down. To avoid facing the problem it should be installed a closed-circuit oil cooling system in order to reduce the temperature and avoid the heat to be transported to SC body. This system will work with a low flow fuel pump, an oil cooler, an expansion tank, a relief valve and some hoses.
Below are some photos of the project. I opened this topic for those interested to know about and to exchange ideas and thoughts, which are welcome.
Those who wish to enter the above procedure should know that no one could give warranty to a mechanical assembly, which rotates 5.300rpm more than the maximum limit, according the manufacturer.
The SC is on two SLK200K giving a gain of 8RWHP. The boost rise to 1,15bar making 199RWHP at 6.700rpm, on a Mustang dyno. Also a 5bar fuel pressure regulator, 195mm crankshaft pulley, bigger IC, improvement of air supply piping, headers, free flow catalyst and a remap of the ECU by a tuner who has the DAMOS files of the SIM4LKE, is the only way.
The last problems I am working on, is:
1. the MAF limits out at 180g/sec and doesn't allow the pressure to rise more opening the bypass valve, even I have try bigger MAP. Attempts of changing or decaling the MAF heart idle and performance.
2. does anyone know how I can merge the wiring of the throttle body connector in order to put the throttle body of a SLK350 which is bigger? In "autodata 3.38' the wires are different as you can see in the photos.
Any ideas will be appreciated.
PS: Sorry for my English.

Hi team.
I have a question for my 271 engine with M65 supercharge.. Can I ported it? if yes, I have to remap?
I have 2006 MB, C180 Kompresor W203, Engine 271.

You can port your SC if you have the tools and the skill to do it. The SC on all the M271 are M45 and not M65 which is not exist. And you have to remap the ecu.

Getting Gogos 195mm crank pulley

Only Carllsson and Kleemman makes them but the prices was very high. The 62mm s/c pulley cost me 100$ and the 195mm (200mm outer diameter) crankshaft pulley cost me 250$, because you have to make also a smaller pulley 120mm for the water pump and to buy another belt 7PK2465 or 7PK2470.
Before you put any pulley on you engine, find a tunner that can remap the ECU. No remap no any Hp gain. Your engine puts out 192 Crank Hp at 0,9bar. The factory map reads only 1bar so I dont think that you need any pulley. You need a remap from a tuner who has the damos files of the SIM4LKE in order to be able to rise the boost and to change the A/F ratio and to see some good Hp gain.

Gogos, like to reach out to you for more information?
