Hey, thumbs up on the mods

I suggest you get the Mercedes-Benz catalog from www.performanceproducts.com they have double exhaust for your car, that won't need to cut or modify the valance.
I would post pictures, but with the maximum 1 byte picture size, I can't do it.

i'm pretty sure that is for the V8/V12 W140's only, and also price is a huge factor. THe best way to mod is maximize HP per $ input, and Performance products exhausts are very $$. I can get good Remus universal exhaust for a 1/5th of the price. I want to modify rear valence just b/c its stupid when tip pop out from straight valence.

you can supercharge the ******* and put anice little 'K' by the rear windows or kompressor badge in the back like " KOMPRESSOR 3.2 ///AMG "

Omey my freind has a zex nitrous kit which he is selling. he just got rid of his acura. THis nitrous kit is as safe as you can get. he racked up 107,000 miles on a acura tl and used about 15 bottle's worth of nos. the thing comes with a 50 shot and 75 shot kits.

omey for your intake, just get a heatshield and that would work wonders.

for apperance wise, the clear corners and avangrade or s600 style grill really makes a huge difference, I put corners and grill on my car and I love it to death, #1 pads are a good choice and have you ever thought of chrome shells udner the door handles? they are cheap and will make a world of difference, your car is about the same color as mine, great color and chrome addons look great on it, keep us posted, I forget who said it, but this is fun to follow

and have you ever thought of getting the folding and blinking side mirros, I'm not sure if the 210s will fit, but damn that would be a very nice mods and its not so bad in price, 450

Nice!

One thing though that someone posted something about earlier.. the AMG badge does NOT come on cars that haven't been at the AMG assembly..
No Mercedes is called an AMG from factory if it's only AMG bodykit or rims.

Bernanke

well in houston its common practice, i guess the local dealership does it to customers cars upon request, seen alot of CKL430's and etc with them.

Updated on the car: I am thinking about doing the resonator bypass on the car just to make it sound slightly more aggressive. a friend did it on his C32 AMG and it sounds just like quiet aftermarket exhaust. not to mention the weight savings along makes it worth it. it cost him $30.

good mod, also think about deleting the cat's and putting an o2 simulator in place, thatlll work wonders

Bernanke

well the good thing is i have OBD1 benz so no o2 simulator needed . gotta love those OBD1s (95 M3 also ). cats i probably wont do but I may upgrade to a remus exhaust, universal ones are only like $200-300 which isn't bad at all considering they are pretty good quality exhausts (they manufacture for alot of other companies).

the grill and mirrors would really do wonders for the look, also chrome shells under the door handles is also nice, I just bought some slk/sl pedals and I really enjoy those some it might be worth it to you.

Ashkan's C43

can we see more pics?

Bernanke

im gonna finishd the new revised intake pretty soon, just need some intake tubing.

Ashkan's C43

updates????????

Bernanke

ya, I will be doing the high flow exhaust soon along with probably a resonator bypass and new freer flowing intake and maybe even electric supercharger. i'll let yall know of the updates.

Ashkan's C43

so on the new g55's how much hp does klee increase, and how much does brabus, because I thought brabus put the v12 engine into it, klee can put out more hp on a sc v8 than a brabus v12?

Ashkan's C43

get avantgrade grill, that will really update the look and some blinking folding mirrors

Im going to my garage now and pull of the 0 from the C180 badge. I think it's good for another 40-50 horspower with the extra weight of the zero taken off.

My C18 will blow that S32 away !

MEINBNZ

I have a 96 S420 same color as yours... I have been thinking about HID lights...did you install your lights yet? Are you or did you get the 8000's?
How do they look? Did you do anything special to your lenses?

My color is the same as your interior also, same color tint but I kept the Star on the hood. I just ordered AMG 18" Chrome Monoblock. So we almost look like twins. I am not familiar with S32 what is that?

s0vietbenz

mein did you order new or used rims!? I could have gotten you the best deals

miroj

Precisely ? Nobody knows.

MEINBNZ

With my new 18" rims I guess I will have to do the same thing.

MEINBNZ

One person says that they are awesome and the other says no way that the 96 S420 will do more damage than good. So will it help or not?

MEINBNZ

with new tires $2400. Chrome in mint condition. However they came off of a 2001 E320. I may still need the right rims if they don't fit correctly. If the offset is off a little will that make a big difference?
