Yes, my bad, meant 500 RWHP (at the wheels) which equates to 625-650 at crank.

Many have more mods than a pulley and tune and yet don't go around saying stage 4 -5-6
This is the term that EuroCharged uses,so I'm simply re-stating their language. You should always get a re-tune after every major mod and EC does retunes for free, which is an incredible value.

Also do those air scoops help or just look cool...I heard that the SL throttle body helps a lot. Not sure on the air intakes tho...
What is the best CAI?
Nubie to the Benz Mod World
Carbon fiber intakes are using bigger, allowing for more air to enter the airboxes.. Air scoops may help a bit, but its hard to tell.. SL TB in the later years went to a 78 or 80mm cant remember which, so bigger than the E TB at 74mm
