Weistec water-methanol and blow-off valve kit
it could be a bunch of things. Software, clutches, spark plugs even. Hi intake temperature is probably unlikely, probably not pre-ignition. I'm in a similar both myself and not sure what to do.
This is where I would ideally place the nozzles for meth. IAT will still pickup the temp drop, and nearly direct port to the left and right IM runners. the only downside is that is right under the ECU! might work with some spacers and 90 degree nozzles. I suppose you could go further back in the intake manifold near the brake booster port, but I have my BOV plumbed in there.

This is the photo of nozzle placement on my intake.
i use 100% meth. No water. The more I spray the faster I go. I only increased 2 steps, I would like to keep increasing the spray stepwise until my trap no longer goes up.

Side note I'd love to see more of the the GAD IC setup, along with intake routing. I've only ever seen the GAD setup on a motor out of a car, and was always interested in how they ran the intake to the turbos. Any more pics you can share?

My engine bay. I have yet to take the car to merc dealership. It raises an unrelated question of how willing they would be to support us, for eg hesitation issues described on the thread. Would be nice to have a dealer mechanic helping to diagnose things like that. I get the feeling that they do not like anything aftermarket.

I always wondered what they did with the stock charger cooler, I'd love to see this setup laid out in detail.

More I know the better, hate to waste my time looking into those top mount intercoolers if they aren't worth the trouble.
the factory intake is restrictive and you will apparently lose 3psi boost through oem intercooler. Another advantage of factory system is it pulls all of the air from outside, none of it from inside the engine bay.
as far as the intake routing on my set up I'm not sure how it was done. The main advantage of the system is less restriction more airflow. I believe the intercooling system on the S model AMG is already quite good.
I know we keep asking haha but if you get the free time, put up as many detailed pictures as you can of the setup. You're our only source!!
Appriciate it thus far.

It is super tight in there I think you can see the filter leading down to the turbo from the turbo going to the top mount intercooler. I'm not even sure about the set of myself you guys could probably make more sense of it than me
and similar to stock when WOT without WMI.
it did not cost 25% of the price they were asking.
of course their kit looks nice.
