I just got the EuroCharged HE which I will install next week. It's definitely bigger than stock and will bolt right in.

 

It requires you to cut the original h/e mounts and to rearrange the cooling device under it to be mounted in some way.

 

Hey Moe!! Yea the Jeep will be ready. I am installing a Lunati Voodoo cam and new wet flowed heads, Ford Corba fuel injectors and a 90mm throttle body, newly ported manifold and bigger headers. Looking to beat my 11.5 and run 11.3 n/a in a 5100lb Jeep!

Remember those blown SRT8 guys they are helping me with this E55. Most of them are blown Ford guys as well. This thing aint much different.....
Let me know when Famoso is coming up!

I agree after seeing what everyone is doing, for the hassle I would add a second H/E like the Evosport designb along with a ice can/split reservoir. It appears to add as much capacity and cooling as a bigger H/E.

As far as fan speed.......Yes you do!
The SRT8 family other than the 6.1 hemi engine is a Mercedes E from the chassis to the driveline including the software. We learned that the fan is multispeed and able to go into high speed at a lower temperature, ie around 185 or when you turn off the a/c. I had the -10 degree fan mod early in 2006 when I first leased the car, and it didnt do much. When you install a lower degree thermostat what is the point if your fan doesnt support it? Unfortunately the MB does not have a hand held tuner..... but I was involved with SRT8 tuners and able to see the "cells" for timing, fuel, rev limiters, torque management, tranny shift point and firmness and off course fan speeds.

My point is....Engine temps(regardless which ones) are key to keeping the engine cooler and fight detonation along with the knock sensors from pulling timing. It is all related. Just like the catch can issue and all that detonation prone oil......but thats for another thread.



I agree.... but every bit helps and begins to add up regardless of "single mod" effectiveness. Like in anything it just keeps adding to the foundation as you build the house.

imho, the lower threshold thermostats and -10* fan mod were not attempts to curb detonation by controling engine tempuratures as much as they were early bandaids for our iat problem. these mods helped (slightly) because the stock i/c circuit and engine cooling circuit were tied together. there's no reason to want your fan to cool your engine water temps below 180*, especially if one has already split the two cooling systems. i highly doubt there's any additional power to be had by keeping the engine water temp below 180* and i would bet that it would actually create a new set of problems if you did.

but like i prefaced...imho.

 

just got this mack daddy installed. goes almost all the way to the top...

 

The date has been set.... November 20th. Here is the official thread:

I will be posting on 8 other forums shortly

 

nice one, from where u got it ?

I gotcha.....


That is a MONSTER!
But will it fit in an E55?

no not that i am aware of. somebody needs to put some heat on MBH to come up with a solutions. this thing is awesome!

 

Yea i need a good cooling set up i just raced a sliver clk 63 black on a hot day here in sydney australia my car is stock 03 55k we raced on the roll. it was neck and neck in second and in 3rd i started to edge in front slowly then we had to back off. i was very suprised i thought they would be alot faster then my stock 55k since they are lighter and claim more hp then my 55k.

It was a hot day when we raced my car was at max operating temp wish i had a good cooling set up i think i would have opened up a nice gap
