275 HP is not bad at all, and 317 lb/ft of torque, that is a surprisingly good number.
Accounting for 15% drivetrain loss that would put you at about 323 HP at the crank. I think that is an incredible testament to how stout and well engineered these Mercedes engines really are, after 20 years and 175K miles it hasn't lost any power.

Think same intake setup made 18whp on my e55. So I am sure this helped a lot. Made more torque than my stock E55 did. It definitely feels very strong. Also had perfect AFRs

I believe these cars make around 260whp. I know there is a clk500 with more mods that made the same power. Custom singlet intakes with one big filter really help the engines out.
dang, that is more than I was expecting. be interesting to see what it does with a set of headers, cam and tune. please continue to build this car, thanks.

I want to 5.4 swap it. Headers, I would have to get built. Waiting on a guy to get back to me about a supercharger snout with an extra injector in it. And you can run 7psi make 100whp. Also might do me2.8 swap.
5.4 swap would be cool for sure. Even an un-corked 5.0 would be cool IMO. My ML500 sure feels like it spins up faster than my E55, so throwing the same performance mods at one clearly works from looking at your dyno sheet. I just moved to a no-smog state so I'm day dreaming about these again...

they both make the same low end, but just so much more power after 4500 rpm.
