RE: 98 e320 turbo/supercharger/nos ??????

best for the money? nitrous would be the most cost effective, but...

...sell E320, buy E430 or E55...

That would give you the best bang for your buck. Turbos are virtually unknown in the MB world. There aren't many superchargers for the V6 motor, and if you do find one, they will be $8K or more. Cheaper to buy an E430 and gaing and extra 50hp right away, plus it gives a better basis for building a more powerful car.

But for the extra $8K you would spend on a s/c, you could get into an E55.

I totally agree with Bora. I wont even think of dishing out another 5-10k on a car that is worth about $15k. Even if you have the money, you have to think about the true outside value of your car.Id sell it and upgrade E430/E55/M5/540
