merc 500bhp drift project

[mantahead]

hi guys,
i have spent some time messing with the c250td and after getting to 385bhp decided instead of spending any more time and money it was time for a new build with the 6 cylinder e300 engine in another better shell.

the old one was rough and went like this..

hi,
the first engine was standard and reving to 7000rpm, engines are very strong, although this time i will balance bottom end and do some head work, cams and stronger valve springs etc.
power is made from big element pump and big turbo.

here is drag racing video of that old car, beat this turbo astra.
