A few new things under the hood *Pics*
Hello!
Long time no see
I've done a few new things on my E55 and thought i'd post a few pics of it here
82 mm TB with a 92mm MAF pipe, and that made me go from the W211 double airbox intake to a singel one on the side on the engine. So i put the new (E430) engine cover on last week and i think it looks pretty good and clean after all.
Only thing left is to put a few more clutch discs in the tranny and do a TCU upgrade, then it's ready for some

Well, now after two years with the blower i can finally see the end of this and start to enjoy the car
It's a LONG story, but if i was about to do it again i would'nt do it, to much hassle. Well, i still LOVE this car and once i get the tranny fixed it will be a monster!! 
Engine feels sooo strong at only 0,6 bar boost. 4'th gear pulls on the highway is nothing but amazing.Another new thing is the new clear projectors i mounted two days ago. Again, looks much better IMHO then the stock "frog" lights

Hmm, no they are not Anzo. It's the normal Taiwan made sh*t
The light picture is better then my stock Xenon. But these have a strange stray light outside the normal light picture. I changed them out myself, had to take the front down. Let me know if you have any more questions

Yes, it was to little space to make a twin 90 mm pipe down to the throttle body if i hade gone with the E55 W211 boxes. I now Blackbenzz made a custom one using the W211 boxes, but i also think there is a little more space back around the fire wall/TB on the CLK55 the on our E55 W210.
