AMG killer v2.0, CLK430 Turbo.

didn't mean to post it in the AMG forum lol. Not completely finished but here's the build up so far. Doin this for a friend in New Jersey.

Wiring in the new computer! I think brain surgery is a little easier.

Stealthy, under the kick panel

Basic wiring finished, I'll pretty it up once the car is 100% tuned and done.


Gross, I think there might be some Herpes in there:

If this isn't the beefiest electric oil pump lol...

Ugh so that electric cutout he said he had, where'd it go? Amazing welding job.

This muffler probably cost more than half the turbo kit lol:

Performance exhaust turbulence

Performance dent!

The only part of his catback being retained:

Before I head to the shop to put the turbo on I had to do this

What could these be for?

A hoss-ass oil pump maybe?

Silicon sealed:

Mounting nuts from behind:

The Y-pipe which will be the starting point of the turbo up-pipe.

Waiting... Why the hell do we have a minivan in there lol

Hmmm... Why did I put these on there for?


Cobra 440cc injectors uprated to 493cc @ 55psi of fuel pressure the CLK runs.

Building the feed line:

Oil feed setup. There are 12x1.5mm aux. bolts in all Mercedes since 1980 for oil accessories. Makes feeding the turbo easy and simple.


Big 10 AN drain hose, excessive but the pump can handle it.

Looks awesome, can't wait to see more. I almost picked up a 430 recently as a fun dd and kind of kick myself in the ass that I didn't.

It's a custom rear mount of my own design, no STS needed.

Dyno is next week when we bump it up to 7-9psi.
