So here's the $ 64,000 question...what is the OEM Mercedes or Bosch part number for a compatible injector which will deliver a 15%-20% flow rate increase ?

Do the injectors in some of the Mercedes Models equipped with the 3.2 SOHC motor flow more?

And isn't there a 3.5 version of the SOHC V6 used in SUVs ? I bet those injectors would work and deliver a little extra fuel!

Let me know what to look for and I'll try to find a working "junkyard sourced" set to try.

I would just stick with the SRT6 injectors, but I guess if you want to go nuts you could try the SLK55 injectors, or maybe the 4 liter v8 benz injectors.
