o.ok.sounds like a big job. Somebody told me that milling the block weakens it and makes it more prone 2 rust.let me get that 3.92 diff and a straight through exhaust and see if i really want more power. The car feels quite snappy at the moment.just lacks torque on inclines.accelarates like a donkey on uphills. Mayb i shouldnt compare it to my mums turbocharged c180 cgi so much. As a side note, i made mince meat out of a toyota runx rsi and a jaguar xk the other day. That was with my my mums c180. It was in economy mode and we wer all going up a hill. The gal in the passenger side of the jag looked like she was ready 2 get out and jump in my car. Not that it matterz 2 me,im really happy with my wife. And im not really into that kinda competition.But u can count that as a victory for mercedes benz

ok, since i deleted the last muffler on my exhaust, added a volt stabilizer and advanced the ignition timing and upped the fuelling, i don t want that turbo anymore. i never knew the stock motor could do so well when tuned right. oh, i also did a cotton gauze air filter. most of the younger( efi) 4 cylinders aint got nothing on me now. robot to robot and on the highways. hehehe
