That is really nice! I just finished putting a 500 engine in my Crossfire and forced induction is next. I have been considering the 55 compressor or a STS rear mount turbo set up. What kind of HP increase did you see?

About the time of the youtube postings, 2 months ago the owner said there was boost pressure problems and nothing else has come up since. Even the owner won't talk about it now. Turbo E320 hasn't said if its even working anymore. Hey Max, did it let go or just not make pressure?

[Turbo E320]

Huh? Since when did I stop posting or go absent? Your really annoying. If you read the thread on mbworld and benzworld, which you graced your presence in both, you'd know the turbo wasn't spinning fast enough because either something was caught in the turbine or the bearings got burnt. Hersh works 6 days a week and, prior to 4 days ago, had to study for his exam that would admit him into dental school. We didn't have the time to fix the turbo but now that he has more time the turbo will be rebuilt by me soon.

Sept10.Dec13 What qualifies as a definit time lapse?

So there is still no answer definitively what is wrong.

[Turbo E320]

Way to be complete creep. I just told you what's wrong can you not read? You know all you need to know and there's really nothing else to say other than I need to fix Hersh's turbo and we both dont have the time to do so yet. Your the kind of board member who ruins fourms. What I like about peachparts and the performance section is that it was devoid of idiots like you who know little or have done little in the performance Mercedes community but yet still rant and argue points they know nothing about. Crawl back into your hole and take your negative pestering somewhere else, tell jerk chicken to go with you.

[Hary Gahtoe]

Your talking in circles as usual. What is it? Bad bearings? Or did something get caught? You don't have a clue? I'm not surprised.
You have every right to say what you want.
So do I. I believe in the physical, and which you have only demonstrated incompletete and inconclusive work. So Far. Hersh's car still doesn't work.
Prove you can do what you say and stop making excuses and hatin'. Its shows as a sign of disbelief.
P.S. Don't blame me for your negative space. Its all you jeanyus.

[Turbo E320]

Doesn't work and doesn't boost is two different things entirely. It works just like it did when he brought it to me and he drives it everyday since it's his DD, it just doesn't boost. We live 740 miles from each other which you should have figured out by now but as usual your picking on certain things and ignoring other things. I haven't checked out the turbo or it's insides to see exactly what the issue is, being 740 miles away is a large factor in that and not my will to get it fixed Mr. Gahtoe. What is wrong with you man?
