What (if any) mods have you done to your engine?
I have seen people talking about a few parts scavenged off of other MB engines to free up more ponies, as well as things like the needswings cai... But it seems very few people have actually PROVIDED PROOF of their supposed hp gains.
over at mbworld they have this thread from about 100 years ago.

a little tidbit caught my eye
"430/500 M113 Fuel Injectors: PN: A1130780249; These injectors are rated at 19 lbs/hr and are a great upgrade for a bolt on car. When coupled with the above bolt on intake mods and an aggressive tune, you can see anywhere from 260-275 HP at the crank. All the while maintaining OEM reliability, very good MPG, and low emissions."
if I could get 275hp at the crank with an intake injectors and a tune I might wear a hole in the front of my pants with the constant erection... but the more I read the more it sounds to good to be true.
