What happens when you toss a handful of bolt ons at a 20 year old supercharged Mercedes Benz? 100 MORE HORSEPOWER! This week, Tony Angelo and the Stay Tuned crew throw a bunch of killer parts from Victory Road Performance on their dirt cheap Benz project in hopes of boosting this thing up, and getting air intake temps way down.

While you had the front end apart you should have replaced the radiator and other coolant and trans hoses. Because Murphys Law will make you regret it...

[@johnnygeorgopoulos4072]

You should definitely get an ECU tune for that fixed pulley (and note that it has one instead of the clutched, there's a difference), for longevity and drivability as well as a healthy HP and TQ bump (not as much as the later bi-turbo cars, but can still be rather significant depending on who you go to).... also, an ECU tune to get that trans shifting fast and holding higher pressure. 👌 Edit: I clearly commented before the end, DON'T JUDGE ME I'M FROM JERSEY, we don't wait around to voice our opinions or concerns 😅🤣 (Escaped to the Midwest though, F that whole tri-state area anymore, well, except for the pizza, and cheesesteaks, and Wawa, and Panzerotti's, and Italian Delis, and surprisingly sane women compared to here, and the food, and occasionally the civilization, and the food, have I mentioned I miss food yet?? 😖)

[@johnnygeorgopoulos4072]

​@@timothybier4504that thing was an eyesore compared to that new heat exchanger 😅 I personally would've at least sprayed some cleaner in its fins and cleaned them out, thing looks like my PCs radiators because I smoke while gaming.... wait 🤔😅🤣

German over engineering??, This is the car company that invented the car, you do know that right??, I think they might know what they are doing. The USA was building tractor engines up until about 20 years ago, not a criticism, I love my '95 GM, but it's about as under engineered as it gets.

[@CM-tc6pp]

I smoke tested my air box with the spacers and caught a couple leaks. I beaded gasket maker in the bottom edges of the box bottoms to help seat the spacers and make them airtight. Idk if you'll have that issue but it's an idea to think about doing later.
