Best 7 things you can do with this car are 1: fit a larger inter cooler for the supercharger, 2: Split the cooling system, 3: Upgrade the intercooler pump, 4: Fit a 77mm clutched pulley, 5: Fit 550cc injectors, 6: Get a tune (Eurocharged, VRP, German Muscle etc etc), 7: 1 step colder plugs. That will give you the best price to performance ratio - assuming you do the work yourself you'd be into it for about $2,000 to $2,500. I went a little further with short headers and a 92mm throttle body but really the cost of those and having them fitted was not worth the gain. Oh and get the supercharger serviced as well. Great fucking car.

"You really don't want that", yes, you do want it if you live anywhere the temperature drops close to 0 celsius at any part of the year. Guys, stop thinking that you know more than Mercedes engineers and stop believing everything that you read on the forums. There's a reason why the intercooler coolant and engine coolant are part of the same circuit. You start that engine up when it's -10 degrees celcius, now you have coolant that's at -10 degrees running through the intercooler which has a number of negative effects. It keeps the intake air too cold for too long, causing excessive fuel usage and worse engine emissions (which will in turn wear out the catalytics faster). Two, it puts stress on the engine and supercharger (since the intercooler is touching both) by keeping them both colder for longer and not allowing them to quickly reach operating temperature (remember the thermostat is closed at this point in order to allow the engine to reach operating temperature). By putting them on the same circuit, it allows the cold intercooler coolant to warm up more quickly thereby minimizing the wear and tear on the engine components when being driven in colder climates and improves gas mileage and emissions.

Hi From Australia, love your work Mate. Is the E55 fitted with LSD standard? Iam still trying to work out weather to C63 or E55. Both cost way more in Australia. What’s you pick? Thx for any help.

What's the difference between the 03 and 01 e55? There's one close by to me for sale for a good price at $3900 and only 145,000 miles. It looks like its really well taken care of, anything to look at specifically on the 01 vs the 03?
