Yes.

Do a post search in the main AMG W210 section page. (Upper right hand side in dark back ground. "Search this Forum")

Several people have posted about super chargers.

Search for: super charger, turbo, Kleemann, and HPS

There are the HPS and Kleeman supercharger kits. Each will generally cost more than the car is worth (especially when you factor in labor) but you may be able to get a used one from time to time for $5k. If you do your own labor, cost isn't that bad.

Other option is a rear mounted turbo. You will need to custom fab (weld) the piping and will need to find a way to tune it. I looked into this route and eventually sold the car and got something forced induction. It's generally cheaper and easier to just buy a W211 S/C E55 than to try to S/C a W210 E55.
