Talking Need some help from the pro's

Allright fellas here they are: What is the largest tire/wheel set you can put on a 1992 300e without damaging the suspension? What are the best "sporty" shocks that can be placed on a 300e, What is the best performance tuning chip available for the 300e, Whats the best performace cam available? Whats the best exahust system? Anyone here ever transplanted a 5-speed transmission form a 1903-2.3-16 or similar? Are there any good brake upgrades from bigger mercedes? Whats a good aftermarket ignition system? ALSO are there any grill upgrades for the this car?
Thanks for the help!!!

-Jay

Unless you had a EURO 2.5 16V engine you would be going backwards in the HP wars. Now a complete engine & 5-speed from a 91-93 300SL would add 35-40 HP. But a 92-93 400E at $12 to $16K might be a better investment. OF course the 1993 300E had 215HP as well!
