My Cold Air Intake - 1993 Mercedes 400e

Here are pics on what I have done so far to modify the Intake on my car. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I really want to be able to run faster than my friend who just got an Automatic G35 SC, who refers to my car as a "Piece of **** old ass mercedes."

so far what has been done to the car is the intake, which i just removed the panels from under the headlights to open up airflow, r1 racing muffler, apr flashed ecu, and custom y-pipe. Any suggestions as to further modifications?

Of course depends on your budget

RennTech has some nice stuff for the 400E (carbon fiber air cleaner and a 5.0 or 6.0 liter engine upgrade).

Do a search on the username 'Subman' as he has done different gearing for quicker acceleration.

I have seen folks make complete 'cold air boxes' good for a few hp as well.

Not sure about superchargers or turbos for your V8. I'm certain others will add more.
