I whole heatedly disagree with The Don there. Diesels are winning the races. These cars will fly. Body kits cut wind resistance which increases fuel economy. I dont know aobut 190e evol kits, but there are some classy AMG, Zender, Kamei, and BBS kits for the W126. Look on ebay.com, ebay.de, ebay.nl, speurders.nl. There you can find the real deals used for cheap (shipping isnt however) OORRRRRRRRR....

For some knock off.

i understand this car is not a sports car. I have other cars for that (see sig) I just want to make it look as good as it can as perform as well as it can. I have a front mount intercooler setup, MBC, boost guage, and a few other things just waiting to be installed. i plan on making the car perform resonable as well. right now this is the doggiest, most homly looking car in my colection. i want to change that.

Do a write up of that FMIC. I wanna see how you deal with the inlet placement.

i plan on rotating the front housing around so the outlet is facing the passenger side of the engine bay going into the intercoolers inlet. then looping back into the boost inlet from the passenger side out of the outlet side of the intercooler.

arent there any others that have done a build like this on here?
