[EDZ649]

This didn't take long to resurface....

MERCEDES E55 E CLASS AMG SILVER *PART EX TAKEN* on eBay (end time 28-Jul-10 18:43:57 BST)

Apparently it's now supercharged!

 

[jaymanek]

added a supercharger too!

 

[Barbanasos]

Must be a really weak one that only gave 10bhp increase from standard!

 

[MOR8A]

I always email people like this and ask were the conversion was done!

That very car is very close to 400 if I remember correctly,it was like that when Andy k bought it from another member or is it a moderator.

Its Gravs old car and it had new cams and a derestricted exhaust and some other bits. Its not slow!!

Indeed it is, but it's definately not supercharged

I have been in that car with Grav when he spun the wheels at 100mph The car is definatley not slow, as a matter of fact I have not driven one as fast as that since I did the service on it. Some buyer is in for one hell of a surprise

Just before he sold it I met up with Andy and he told me it was pushing 480bhp....

480bhp without a supercharger - doubt that is possible without fitting nitrous etc then again who know's exactly what's been done..??

It had some serious engine work. IIRC when GRAV owned it the engine was removed, crated up and sent to Renntech for tweaking!

Thanks for the info, sounds like a go'er...!!!

If mine dont sell I will just keep it and do some tweaks of my own

I would be very suprised if it was 480BHP.

 

[ACID]

480 bhp? No chance

 

[EDZ649]

I would be very suprised if it was 480BHP.

That's what he told me...

No doubt he will be along soon to contribute.

 

[lopes80]

Can't see it myself, without a blower. I will email Renntech to see if they have info on it.

 

[BlackC55]

I have driven it too! It did not have 480BHP when I drove it. It was quick yes but not that quick.

If it does have 480BHP I will be bidding......

Yes it's slow lol, I remember he took it to santa pod and he couldn't even break low 13's if I remember rightly it was 14.1secs..

that's more or less like a w211 e500!

I had a e55 51 reg facelift model and when I took that to santa pod at the time it managed 13.2secs and all it had was a remap and green filters!

now it belongs to one of my friends and he's just had kleeman headers and exhaust installed last week, massive difference mid range! :O
