For the amount of time, money and effort it obviously takes.. why not get an extra 2 cyl... and however much power you want (+$,time, effort.). Do you guys really care if it's a "mercedes" that much?

With all the banter about of flashing an ecu to erase the old vin and reflash to the donor car, anyone care to speculate what would stop dropping an srt 6 into a n/a? Ummmmmmmmm.............have you actually READ this thread, or did you just skip to the last page and make a post? |

Re: SRT6 Engine Transplant
Glad to hear you are doing well... I'll have to PM you my number, although I don't think it's changed since the last time I saw you.
If you have it give me a shout. |
Re: SRT6 Engine Transplant
HDDP!
Great to hear from you. A lot of us wondered what had happened to you. Nice to know you still have the car. |
Re: SRT6 Engine Transplant
Can I ask how you removed the coolant expander tank? I purchased a new one and can't get the other one out. I have the lines and sensor off but it sees where the nipple attaches, at least it seems so.

Easy peasy. (When you know how) |

You are probably not on this board anymore but if we could drop a stock srt6 engine in a manual crossie with the flywheel, crankshaft and an upgraded clutch all from the c230 coupe. Then reprogram the stock ecu from the n/a or srt6 so it wouldn't interfere with the lack of a tcu. Or program a motec to emulate a functionning tcu through a piggyback setup. How does that sound?

Contrary to popular belief you can retrofit a supercharger from the SRT on to an NA along with its complimentary components. It’s not going to ‘destroy the engine’ or cost 3 testicles lol. It’s surprisingly common nowadays. For that I would build an ECU for you from a 32 AMG and you’d go to your favorite tuner and tell them what you did. I have a Facebook page that I prefer inquiries through if anyone has more questions: https://m.facebook.com/MercedesSwapShop/ |
Re: SRT6 Engine Transplant
