I would think that the 1995 E300D should have performance similar to the 1996 version in the W210 body with a mostly-identical engine. The '96 is supposed to top out at 120 mph -- I have not had an opportunity to see if mine will do that.

You should think about removing the intake manifold and cleaning out all of the crud, then block off the EGR valve so it can't crud up the clean pipes.
