Mod fever! All suggestions helpful!!!

Hello all, I have mod fever and need some advice on which direction to go, here is where I currently sit

Kleeman Headers-full custom exhaust
c63 mufflers
Jerry Dyno tune
TCU tune
83 pulley
Cold Spark plugs
FTP Heat exchanger
TTM Intake scoops
Ic pump
Belt wrap kit

So, I am not sure where to go next with this, I live in SoCal so temperature is a factor I was thinking to add these (keep in mind it’s a daily)

VRP secondary heat exchanger
colder thermostat

please shoot some suggestions,
Thanks

Thanks guys! Dang man 540 whp!!! Hopefully I can get that soon, so you guys think doing the
2nd heat exchanger and splitting the cooling, adding a intake won’t help? Or just not worth the $

I would save my cash for a set of long tube headers. I have a set of maximizer long tubes. They work great. Allows more flow than the mids and in end result you gain more power while making the motor more efficient. The secondary heat exchanger will make a good difference in recovery time. It did on my car. I would get it. I wouldn’t split the cooling until
you add a trunk or bay tank. The only intake that will gain power is the Needswings DCAI. You’ll also pick up 1.5-2 psi in boost with that intake as well.

so there’s no power or recovery time with the intake?

how much more power would the long tubes make over my kleemans?

I never got back to back dyno numbers. But I was able to gain a car length in speed from a roll. Before long tubes when I had mid length headers a C6 Z06 would put around a car to car in a half on me. When I put on long tubes I was finally able to barely pull on the C6 Z06. So my top end did make a big difference from mids.

I don't have dyno numbers from stock intake to needswings. But throttle response did increase and the boost increased around 1.5-2 psi depending on the weather outside. Hotter the weather the lower the boost reading.

Since you're in California, a trunk ice tank is always a great recommendation to keep things cool. Additionally, if it's power you're after, we offer our modular crank damper kit that allows you to choose exactly how much you want to overdrive your factory supercharger to amp up the boost!

Check these out:
Weistec Trunk Ice Tank for E55
Weistec 180mm Modular Crank Pulley for E55

There is a chart around here somewhere of IC pumps, and the cm30 is the worst in a high resistance system like this. It's been discussed to death a few years back. CWA100 or bosch 010. https://mbworld.org/forums/w211-amg/...oler+pump+didn

Your website has said those modular crank pulleys and the 170mm are out of stock and has been in this state for years, are they now back in Stock?

The 170mm pulley has been available in small batches, but it's not something we produce in bulk enough to keep in stock on the website. However, you can always call us to place an inquiry or I can personally build you a quote and we can make one specially to order!
