Tuning a 55K powered car what are the options
I have been asked many times in posts, pm’s and at GTG’s two main questions what’s the best mod for a 55K and if I had the chance to do it all again would I take the same route.
Both difficult questions to answer and let me start by pointing out I am no engineer or tuner over my two years of ownership I have spoken at length with some of the big name AMG tuners and many owners of very modified cars and thought I would put together a review to try to help others particularly as it seems that the market for these cars are hitting a new breed of owners that want more and more power. I will post a thread on each mod and if for some will reference multiple threads if the modification requires further mods to get the most from it, at this stage will stick to the traditional methods that don’t include changing the supercharger or the twin turbo route!
The first 3 will be
Supercharger & Crank Pulley - http://www.mbclub.co.uk/forums/amg-...part-1-pulley-map-biggest-bang-your-buck.html
Exhaust & Headers- http://www.mbclub.co.uk/forums/amg-performance-lounge/159005-tuning-55k-part-2-exhaust-headers.html
IC Cooling - http://www.mbclub.co.uk/forums/amg-performance-lounge/159006-tuning-55k-part-3-ic-cooling.html
