Like I said if you look at a 87 or later V8 I think you will see this already done by the factory. What we need is a pic from someone who has the ICV with the small bypass tubing installed from the factory and one of our resident expert's take on the subject. Don't go drillin on no mercedes based on my say!

If you look it up on the mercedes site partfinder, it gives you a pic of what the new hoses look like.
Drilling into a couple of hoses is nothing, I can easily find a replacement for that locally if (when) I screw it up. I'm a machinest by trade, I'm quite handy with a drill (and LOVE to tinker)
A pic "under the hood" of the car that has the proper lines would be perfect.
