While you had the front end apart you should have replaced the radiator and other coolant and trans hoses. Because Murphys Law will make you regret it...
You should definitely get an ECU tune for that fixed pulley (and note that it has one instead of the clutched, there's a difference), for longevity and drivability as well as a healthy HP and TQ bump (not as much as the later bi-turbo cars, but can still be rather significant depending on who you go to).... also, an ECU tune to get that trans shifting fast and holding higher pressure. 👌 Edit: I clearly commented before the end, DON'T JUDGE ME I'M FROM JERSEY, we don't wait around to voice our opinions or concerns 😅🤣 (Escaped to the Midwest though, F that whole tri-state area anymore, well, except for the pizza, and cheesesteaks, and Wawa, and Panzerotti's, and Italian Delis, and surprisingly sane women compared to here, and the food, and occasionally the civilization, and the food, have I mentioned I miss food yet?? 😖)
@@timothybier4504that thing was an eyesore compared to that new heat exchanger 😅 I personally would've at least sprayed some cleaner in its fins and cleaned them out, thing looks like my PCs radiators because I smoke while gaming.... wait 🤔😅🤣
Another kick but on the "Cheap" build from the pizza crew that has an addiction to HP !!! That things gonna be fun on the track !!! Great video Stay Tuned 👌 👍 pizza crew !!!
@@ladariusarmcannon7024 lol 3 of of my weekly go to channels where i like before watching cause the content is always good. You should check out steve morris, robby layton,KSR Performance & Fabrication and jh diesel to name a few other great channels for car shit
Your timing couldn't be better. I have a pile of dishes to wash and I was looking for a reason to procrastinate. I have to watch right now. You know, for science.
As a guy who loves classic muscle, and is a long time Mercedes fan, you cannot imagine how happy I am to see this content. Hope to see some more Mercedes content from you!
This aggressive pulley setup requires way more cooling than just a heat exchanger and bosch pump with a small split cooling reservoir. My car has an 83mm pulley with the same cooling mods and it can still reach 130f IAT on full throttle.
Nailed it. I'd love to see the US version with a CTS-V. Unfortunately, you'd just get a comment section of crazies that hate LS power for no good reason. Keep up the awesome content though.
Dang dude! I wasn't fast enough to get the long sleeve. Got the classic stay tuned lightning bolt shirt and some stickers instead! You guys are the true backyard mechanic's heroes.. you always inspire me to work on my projects. Thank you for what you do and the time you put in!
The length of your vids is awesome. I dont often have multiple hours to spare thanks to two kids. This gets me a fix of wrenching, power and pies that I can better fit in to spare time. #1 garage team on UA-cam, for sure 👌
I lost it at the beginning. you gu two are natural goofs. Catch anything???😅😅😅😂😂😂😂 gotta pay the bills. thought I was watching the red green show for minute. ❤❤
I smoke tested my air box with the spacers and caught a couple leaks. I beaded gasket maker in the bottom edges of the box bottoms to help seat the spacers and make them airtight. Idk if you'll have that issue but it's an idea to think about doing later.
Bro - congrats on pulling in a video sponsor!! We all start somewhere! Pretty soon you'll have AG1 Greens on here and Joe Rogan will be calling to book you on his podcast!
thats my old car! i bought back in sept 11, 2022. car was in pretty rough shape so i just replaced bunch of control arms and maintence, cleaned it up as best as i could. i traded it for a 39 m5 from a russian dude. i dont know if you got it from him but would love to talk to yall about it. i have pictures, videos, vin to confirm. thats pretty cool, didnt think id see it again haha
Some of the best Automotive content on UA-cam. When I work on cars it's boring AF, you guys definitely make it fun to watch. Bought a shirt, pizza cheat code coming next boys.
Another great video! I'm not a Mercedes fan, but I can certainly appreciate getting 600hp for that price. Especially for the condition of it. Seems pretty solid.
I have a 15lb Prime Rib Eye in the refrigerator ready to be prepped and cut for steaks, I’m just letting it settle a little bit longer while I watch my favorite weekend car show. Stay Tuned is the real deal! Real guys working on regular cars, that’s what all gear heads want to see. You guys do a great job putting this content together in just 4 days….amazing work.
Horsepower is a universal language, and many of us don't see much from other countries...some of these Euro brands have stout numbers! But I think working on them is harder and more intimidating for guys raised on V8's@@StayTunedTA
Today I realized I used to pass you guys when you were filming while I was driving to and from work. So hype that one of the better content creators are right in the back yard!
I have no idea how you have the time and energy to do all of your builds, but I’m here for it! I’ve got some pretty eclectic tastes in cars, but you might actually have me beat. It’s awesome the way you effortlessly swing between euroean cars, under appreciated ‘Murican cars, and even some fun stuff from Asia. I’m just waiting for you to drag in an Australian Interceptor or slap a Barra into something from South Africa
National Pizza Party day. Shoutout Pizza Squad!! It’s amazing how great this Merc is running after you guys fixed the German over-engineering 🤣🤣Beer and a Slice Time! Ready to Stay Tuned 🤘🔥🔥
@@StayTunedTAPlenty of Daylight left brother! Go get some pizza, sit back and let all those positive comments roll in. You guys killed it this week. Thank you🤘🤘🍺🍕
German over engineering??, This is the car company that invented the car, you do know that right??, I think they might know what they are doing. The USA was building tractor engines up until about 20 years ago, not a criticism, I love my '95 GM, but it's about as under engineered as it gets.
As someone who likes a little bit of everything I love how there's no cliche on the show. Low buck LS swap? Yep. Mopar stuff? Of course. German muscle sedan? You know it. Most channels are more one dimensional. Sooo glad you kept doing hot rod garage after hot rod garage👍🏼💪🏼
Oh hell yeah! W211 E55 is my favourite sedan on the planet, the best mix of power, comfort, quality and technology. Back when an AMG was about performance not appearance
IT'S ABOUT TIME!!! I have a 2006 Mercedes E55 AMG. That I absolutely love! It has a tune and some light mods. It's extremely fast. Next is long tube headers and an exhaust.😅 I am so excited to see what you guys will do with this car?!
This is just a great series. I would love to see Long Tube headers as well but they are relatively expensive, or buy cheaper ones and spend the day welding about lol.
I gotta say I love the fingerless gloves...giving me a real Andrew dice clay vibe... I said that in my head with my best new York accent... Keep up the good work fellas...can't wait to see the v12 fox body back!!
Howdy pals, you know what is better than this channel? The fans supporting it! The highlight to my week is right here. Stay safe everyone, and Stay Tuned for more rad content!
Adding idler pulleys also will help lessen side pressure of the supercharger bearings besides limiting belt slippage.Countering any heat damage to them applied by the torch, ha.
long tube headers are also an absolute must for 2 reasons: reason 1) it vacates combustion heat. heat is this car's worst nightmare. it's impossible to kill except for that one flaw: the boost creates heat, cranking the boost creates more heat, you start to get predetonation and it will cook itself. MB found this in R&D and that's why the original clutch was electronic and disengages with higher intake temps. If you're gonna remove that, increase boost, you need to look for any and all ways to reduce heat. reason 2) it sounds incredible.
The transmissions in these cars are really solid. Only thing that really goes on them is the circuit board, called a conductor plate, and its plug, which is known to leak transmission fluid up the wiring harness. That line will go first for sure.
It may be the cheapest Mercedes...until you need replacement parts. Well not you, I'm willing to bet you've got parts in your collection of goodies. But the average person would probably benefit from staying away from Mercedes. They will only bleed out your bank account. Not to mention, Mercedes quality has shot down hill at a rapid pace over the last decade or so. Guess that could be said of most things today. Still great fun to watch you whack away at these projects and have a ton of fun along the way. Thanks for bringing us along for the ride.
Hello from Australia! almost at 300k subs mate ! p.s next time you need to use your map gas to release a bearing or pulley, try concentrate the heat on the outer part, as it will expand or can damage the shaft.
Not sure if I missed it did you tune the beast after the upgrades? My 2003 E55 died on me yesterday 100 yards from my house I think its the fuel pump new relay didn't fix it.
Haven’t watched the video yet but I’m confident it’s gonna be a banger. Thank Tony and gang for creating high quality UA-cam content. Watching from Philly

There’s a lot of good content out there. Stay Tuned, VGG, Dirthead Shed, Gears and Gasoline, and many more
Bam! It’s time fellas! Thanks for saving the shop!
Let's GOOO!
Let's go! German muscle cars and burnouts! Must be Stay Tuned Fridays! Beers on me boys
Let's GOOO! Just whipped that Benz home in time to get to comments. It looks pretty normal but that whine is hard to miss.
Your timing couldn't be better. I have a pile of dishes to wash and I was looking for a reason to procrastinate. I have to watch right now. You know, for science.
Let's GO! Those dishes HAVE to soak for awhile to be ready to wash. Sometimes it takes days.
Get you one of those portables that roll and hook up to the sink. Changed my life. And it uses half or more of the water that I use hand washing.
@@joshuagibson2520 I got a little counter-top dishwasher, it's the bee's boobs.

Hahaha that got me too
Beer in hand on a plane watching stay tuned. Who’s having a better Friday. Let’s gooooo

As a guy who loves classic muscle, and is a long time Mercedes fan, you cannot imagine how happy I am to see this content.
Hope to see some more Mercedes content from you!
I feel like "Tony and Barb's" would be the bait and tackle shop that would sell you beer after-hours and fence stolen stereo equipment.
That's "pre-owned" stereo equipment
Comments: "You're an idiot!"
Tony: "Yeah but it's working pretty well for me so far."
Tony's one of the coolest MF in the game. So watch your mouth!
Friday night, 10:30PM in the UK, I'm going to Stay Tuned to this video with a beverage.
🍺🍕
Cheers bud! Thanks for watching
Hell yeah
I'm really glad you are keeping the AMG around. It's interesting and refreshing. Look forward to more content with it.
Tony & the crew without corporate overlords is much better than the inverse. Good stuff.
This aggressive pulley setup requires way more cooling than just a heat exchanger and bosch pump with a small split cooling reservoir. My car has an 83mm pulley with the same cooling mods and it can still reach 130f IAT on full throttle.
Those 722.6 transmissions are some of the best transmissions ever made. They're good 800 foot pounds of torque.
Best Damn Car Show on the Internet.
100% out here spittin facts

Best content ever!!! Stay Tuned and Legit Street Cars are the 2 channels I can’t wait all week to watch!!!!

You can defo tell that Barb is the spawn of Papa Barb! Lol. Same kind of excitement and exclamations.
Watching you grind on the Benz pulley was better than when you welded on it.
HAHAH you think?!
Putting 1/4-20 bolts on a metric car is always fun

The transmissions in these cars are really solid. Only thing that really goes on them is the circuit board, called a conductor plate, and its plug, which is known to leak transmission fluid up the wiring harness. That line will go first for sure.
Copy that, yeah I know the NAG1 is a stout box. Hoping it lasts awhile longer!

love how you are always mixing it up guy!! Love all of it!!
Hello from Australia! almost at 300k subs mate ! p.s next time you need to use your map gas to release a bearing or pulley, try concentrate the heat on the outer part, as it will expand or can damage the shaft.

The tune should keep the pump on and for about 100 more hp do long tube headers and a 92mm hellcat Throttlebody
Every time Tony says "sucker" do a shot in this episode
A few moments later ... i'm so wasted🤪🤪
Add water wetter. I’ve seen lower engine temps on my g8 when I go WOT. Added it when I did a 160° t stat
Haven’t watched the video yet but I’m confident it’s gonna be a banger. Thank Tony and gang for creating high quality UA-cam content. Watching from Philly
