Those are LS7 black label heads, awesome pieces. Those are a little under 4k$ with the titanium intakes and sainless exhausts, and the cream of the cylinder head crop without getting into splayed valve race only heads that require custom sheetmetal intakes. That same $$ in Mercedes land will get you port work done to your stock heads.
You'll never likely see stuff like that for the imports though, they don't leave the family of engines with interchangeable parts for long enough to get a specific fan base for a specific engine, at least not in the numbers that the GM and Ford crowd pull.

So when do you expect your car to be running again with the Weistec installed? I come home April 1st and sure would love a ride in that thing and we could even do a video comparison, mine vs yours. I am about 2 hours from Orlando but will be traveling to south Florida and could take a little detour if I needed too.

Did you go with the 82mm TB on the Wis or are you going to adapt the bbk 90mm or larger ?

I ordered some ARH longtubes, and they should be here the end of this week so I plan to do the blower, headers and a standalone IC circuit all at once the week of the 11th. Thatd be great to have a similar car to compare it to. I'm on the NE side of Orlando too, only about 30 minutes west on I4 from 95 so not too much of a detour.

I already had the 82mm sitting on the shelf so that's what's going it next week. When I get the MID block back and get that put together maybe I should get a bigger then 82 TB? What are your thoughts?

Sweet, I need to get my car redynoed and then maybe get the tune adjusted since my last setup was 180 pulley. I now have stock crank with smaller supercharger pulley and only had a flash for the new pulley but no tweaking, but then I have 80mm throttle body, Kleeman headers (no cats) and Eurocharged tune with all the basic cooling mods so pretty much a run of the mill "stage 3" setup. Should be a nice comparision.
