WTB performance parts + my new (to me) sl55

Hey everyone finally picked up my sl55 and loving it so far but, need some more power out of this stock 113k! I’ve already ordered Bc coilovers to eliminate the abc as I know they are plug and play and I will order the sway bars depending how I like it without.




modifications needed
83mm pulley
Heat Exchanger
headers (mids or longs if they fit)
used or new is fine
please Pm me if you have any
thanks

nice! With the plm heat exchanger does it run with the stock sl55 one or you remove the factory and run it?

Skip The 83mm clutched pulley, The SL has improved cooling from the factory, 80mm Pulley will net you an extra ~10 hp paired with our IQ tune

https://www.vrpspeed.com/product/80m...nd-tune-combo/

We will have midlengths coming in next week, Info@vrpspeed.com I can put a package together for you with a belt wrap kit aswell.

I did an 83mm UPD pulley and RaceIQ Stage 2 tune, as well as upgraded to the Bosch 010 secondary water pump. That’s all the power and cooling I need to scare the crap out of me. Stock heat exchanger on the SL is considered ample for most pulley mod applications.

Super clean and Awesome car! 83mm is a great option and very strong package with a tune. If you have oem idler pulleys, those are good to change out too. If you want more aggressive power, you can go with a 77mm as well on your car. The proper tune is what keeps all your safety maps in place. We have it all. Message us if you need any help , ideas or package deals.
