Why Weistec not offered an upgrade parts for N/A M112s & M113s,

im sure soo many fans here want to unleash some power to their N/A Engines without supercharged..!-I-!

ZAYED,,

There's not that much power to be made without supercharging.

My goal is to have a supercharger fitted to my N/A E55 W210.

BlownV8, I think you are on to something. The intake is right on the spot where the windshield reservoir is suppose to be located. I don't like the look of the intake sucking in air within the engine bay rather then getting air from outside. That makes the engine run hot


I am not trying to knock anyone and also not trying to cause any problems but I came across this thread in the W212 forum rather disturbing after reading it.....

Thank you for pointing this out BlownV8. As we said earlier, multiple chassis use the M113 engine which means there will be many variations in parts. In regard to the C55, the windshield washer reservoir is located behind the passenger strut which doesn't have an ill effect on the filter being ran in that area.

In terms of hot air, this is actually one of the best areas to place a filter. It is a high pressure area because cold air is trapped in the bumper dam, which ends up running to the filter.

We hope this helps.

Do you route the air filter to the left side on the 210E kit so you don't have to relocate the reservoirs?

You may need or not need to relocate the coolant reservoir in W202/W208/W210, depend to the S/C spec.,

its a good area & more space to dig a supercharger there, like the HPS supercharger installation.....

I put the 55k kit on my NA 55 a longgg time ago and did it on my own in a couple weeks working on it once in a while. Using OEM parts so I don't see how anything could could have a more OEM fit and finish Tuning has taken forever but it's making well over 600whp.
Done yet?

AMGSC

Have you even run yet? All this talk and nothing but more rework. No time slips. I don't trust any dyno sheets as we both know they can be manipulated to read anything you want.

Your engine bay looks like a train wreck or at least hit by a train. Want to compare appearance to my pics?

10.6 @ 132.9 over a month ago with a bad TCU and full weight. You already knew that though as you commented on it when I posted the time. That was prior to my new setup which makes alot more power. Speaking of which, what's your best time? I will run you any day any time.

Have you even seen under my hood? What exactly doesn't look OEM besides the Weistec SC?

AMGSC

And then after the run what happend? I don't want my car to run one race and then break for more rework. I want to have a low 10 sec/140 trap car and doubles as daily driver and good for another 100K miles.

blackbenzz

After the run I drove it home just like I drove it to the track My car never broke. I decided to buy a short block with forged pistons in and was sold a junk block. Pulled it back out. Car runs and didn't break. Dunno what you're talking about Keep fishing. Go run a low 10 at over 140 and post it up. Enough of your talk. You've been saying your car will run this and that for years. Have you even been tens yet??? Keep trying to copy everything I do.

Proof of 1/4 mile almost 2 months ago with old setup



Proof car is running with new setup



Your turn...

Unless you plan on dragging or tracking it, what I did to mine is plentiful for daily drive and once in a while WOT (watch out for cops...that's why I have a solo)

Love hearing things like this People become way to reliant on "experts", when you be self-reliant with a little time and effort spent learning the pro's and con's of every option available.

M3RC3D3SE55AMG

You have a monster!

Weistec

We have yet to install a system on the W210 chassis. As you can see from a couple members here, the parts we offer do fit the W208 model and the W203. We are also certain that it will work on the W209 as well.

Strigoi

I'm out. I've decided to go another route with a different vehicle.

CharlyE500

+1 many cars that cheaper to mod and faster. W210 is a 4 door sedan and the only way to make fast is SC which cost more than $10K with installation. If you want a fast car, get a Corvette Z06 or the new C7.

M3RC3D3SE55AMG

Well you could have installed on mine but you've lost my vote of confidence, as I outlined earlier in this thread. Customer service levels a below poor

Let us know what you get up to Strigoi

What you say makes sense from a general perspective. However, some of us have W210's because they are modern classics, or were childhood dreams (I fit into the latter category). Mine is a daily-driver passion project. Spending more money on servicing and tuning the car than it's actual worth isn't an issue. Each to their own, and I plan to be leaving Z06's and C7's at the lights once I'm through with the planned work

CharlyE500

I understand your passion. I own few 55 so I know. Currently I have CLK55, W210 and W211 parking in my garage so I know what you mean.
But these cars are Mercedes, they are suppose to be classic, fast and comfortable. If you want power and handling Corvette is the best choice. Z06 with very simple mods can run high 10's.

Good luck with your project and keep us posted.

Strigoi

The plan right now is a Toyota FJ Cruiser with some mods (lift, wheels/tires, bumpers, roof rack, supercharger, exhaust, etc...). I'm just going to keep the E55 as is and not dump any more money into it (late edit: might do the stereo). It's fast enough and I don't drive it that much anyway. It sees maybe 10-30 miles a week at this point.

The Intrepid is getting sold since I don't like it and the same is happening with the Durango (have had it over 11 years) since an FJ replaces what it does. I also have no need for 3 vehicles.

M3RC3D3SE55AMG

Indeed I'll post updates as and when i have them

I like your logic
