I have an 89 190e 2.6 and ive been thinking about dropping a 3 liter in there, and getting some turbos. Does anyone know where i could find some racing pistons, and other strong engine parts that can hold up to turbos?

I am also trying to find a hood like this for my 190e


Does anyone know what year and model that hood came off of, because i havnt seen a 300TE with that hood before.

Thanks

Turbos

I was thinking about either some Mosselman turbo's, or maybe garrett turbo's im not sure yet. How much did your complete turbo system cost?

This probably wont happen for at least another 6 monthes, but i plan on getting an AMG head and building a new engine myself.

The current engine has 215,000 miles on it. If i get the new head and pistons, will the rest of the parts on my 2.6 work for the 3?

Thanks

Thanks allot, ill be ordering one soon.
I plan on changing the hood, and putting some headlights from a 97 w202. I might be putting some w210 clear tail lights on kinda like this, and changing the whole rear end, but im not sure yet.


Im also thinking about making a custom body kit, and getting some 17x9's

let me know what you guys think.
