These Blown V8 Benzes are Killer!! Imagine taking a handbuilt 5.5 liter V8 engine, slapping on a big roots supercharger, and cramming it between the frame-rails of a mid-2000's luxury sedan? That dream was actually a reality in 2004 in the Merceded Benz E55 AMG, which packed almost 500hp of German hot rod horsepower! In this episode, Tony Angelo and the Stay Tuned crew scoop up the cheapest example of this car, throw a few bucks and a few hours of time at it, and transform it into an absolute monster!

Your engine was heat soaked so the protection disengages the clutch. You need to upgrade the intercooler system. You need to replace the pump and separate the intercooler system from the engine cooling system. Lots of info online on how to do this. You may damage your engine by welding the clutch.

They responds very well to boost :) Seems to be built very sturdy! Although they tend to run a little warm, so you need to have good cooling. Great video! Thx

Something else, I might be wrong but I dont think the supercharger ever engages in park or neutral. I have not reached the end of the video yet, you just now welded the pulley. That should annoy the ecu, having boost when no boost is requested. I would suspect your problem is with the inlet air temps. When these motors heat soak from the supercharger they pull out a ton of timing making it feel like your down about 200hp. Replace the intercooler water pump and that will usually fix most of that. Beyond that you can upgrade the intercooler system.

I daily a 2006 E55, Have 240K miles on it now and it still rips. IMO, they are a perfect daily driver. Fast, comfortable, decent handling, and if you drive like a normal person, 20mpg. As for the seats, they are super comfortable. The active side bolsters that inflate when you corner to hold you in the seat are really cool.

That was pretty quick back in 2003 when these came out though. Fastest Production Sedan back in the day. The M113k engine and 722 trans are practically bulletproof.

If Mercedes is anything like BMWs you have to program modules to the car once hooked up to activate/use them. Their way of keeping the average guy from working on them and having to go to a dealer. Thankfully through forums programming software can be had.
@TireSlayer55
@TireSlayer55 21 күн бұрын
On these era Mercedes some modules are like that, but usually just the ones required to run the car. You'd need a Mercedes Star Diagnostic System (the factory scan tool) running Xentry (the factory diagnostic software) to program modules like that. Also pretty much mandatory for doing any real diag work on these cars. You can get Chinese knockoff SDS/Xentry setups online that work just fine for most needs for around $500-800. Certain things, like programming a new ECU that needs to VIN coded to the car, may require paid access to Mercedes' servers that generally isn't possible or cost effective for a DIY'er to obtain, which is when you would need to visit a dealer or independent Mercedes specialist shop to help you out.

I had an 06 e55 and a 100 mile round trip commute every day. Did all the maintenance by the book, was constantly working on it and the thing still blew up before 200,000 miles. 3/4 ton suburban has proven to be a much better vehicle at 350,000 without major repairs

Tony if you want to do a hard reset on these newer cars just unhooking the battery doesn't always work. Next time unhook both positive and negative cables and touch them together or use a jumper to touch them. That discharges any capacitors or whatnots to do a "hard reset"

​@StayTunedTA Ariens and Gravely are excellent mowers. However, I bought a used Husqvarna MZ-48 last year for my property and it is a gem. Great cut and scoots around really well. I went from about 4hrs to cut with a riding mower down to 1½ with theHusqvarna

With you on the Seafoam, Tony. I put half a bottle in the oil for the last 500 miles before a change, as well as the remainder plus a bottle in the fuel, as WELL as a bottle of Lucas Deep Clean, in the first tank every oil change. I also LOVE the CRC GDI valve cleaner spray stuff for direct-injected stuff. Does it all work? Hell, I don't know, but I've always been kinda mean to my stuff and have yet to have a premature failure of an engine through reasonable human use. Modern engines are pretty amazing for the most part, keep them clean and happy and they'll run a LONG time. I'm a GM LS/Ecotec guy, I suspect about everything else is similar.

There should be a little aluminum rod with threads on one end in the spare tire kit. You thread it into the Hub before you install your wheel and tire. Start two of the lug bolts and then remove the rod and install the remaining three.

It's positively hilarious how Americans are excited about European cars and love it. I live in Europe and daily drive a 1977 El Camino with a stock 350, exhaust and few life comfort mods like Edelbrock carb and intake, electric fan. I never bought a European car in my life since I have the same amount of excitement seen here for classic US cars. Nothing can compete with the irregular signature sound of an American V8 due to varying exhaust lengths. European V8s mostly come with even exhaust length structure that make V8s sound like inlines.

Hold the traction control button down for 30 seconds and it will turn everything off (stability etc). Get yourself a proper intercooler system to stop the heatsoak. And i wouldn't keep that supercharger clutch welded solid either. Thats asking for trouble
