Re: I'm building another one... Supercharged V8 Part Deux!!! :D
For anyone interested in getting this V8 conversion done and have questions about emission testing. This is the results from the emissions test that is required in my area.
...But first a little info...
-Originally a '04 3.2L NA engine
-Swaped to a MB 5.5L Kompressor engine
-Rear catalytic converters removed
-Installed a Magnaflow X
-Dual exhaust all the way to the 2 Magnaflow mufflers
-2½" stainless pipe
Here is the results. With personal info removed

Otherwise it would say 'OVER ALL TEST RESULTS: FAIL.'

Actually this is a pretty silly statement. I can afford pretty much anything within my budget, which is pretty good, but it's still a budget. I work for an investment firm and my CEO is worth 800 million and he still asks what things cost, so yeah.

If you are that interested, I would contact accelerated and get a quote, if it fits into your budget, I will be jealous....

To gain some more rubber on the ground to accomadate the already dangerous car. I do a little codework as a hobby and have some German connections in Munchen and Austria... her dad was vp of bmw exports..... if anyone has some links (unlikely) to where i could peek into the programming code in developer mode for the fivestar platform that would be awesome......
Thanks guys... and keep up the good work. also would a 2000 s-500 v8 work for a conversion??? (sceptical)
