    Hello's

    Excuse the late reply life got busy.

    KC, You can swap pretty much any of the 5.4's in you just need various parts from the C/CLK like the oil pan,maybe oil pump etc but always the coolant plug on right side. The air intake/filter from the C43 will also drop onto any of the 5.4's.

    Funboy, sure np though the stars will need to align with a time when it isn't broken^^. I still have the c43/clk55 shock, also the Koni adjustables and engine mounts,if you install the V8 ones the car feels much better vs the stock 4 cyl ones.

    Krum, I definitely plan to dyno soon, I will use the same dyno we tuned my turbo 202, I really want to overlay results with the 5.4

    Few small updates:


    Shallow Odd-mints compartment installed with 12v outlet,matching colour coded tray above.(for touchshift MY2000 version but also available for 98/99) ... If you can let go of your matching fake carbon look ash tray this is a perfect mod for anyone wanting somewhere to throw your phone/wallet,love it.
    Unfortunately MB no longer make the black surround for the touch shifter, if you order black you will receive chrome,I hope to find a black one or maybe paint this one.

    Remo,Whilst playing with the ME2.0 C43 ECU I deleted the coding, this allows you to enter new coding located in the EPC, the ME will only accept 9-digit codes it recognises so I was able to find approx. 10 accepted codes including E55. the only thing I couldn't get it to accept was my original C43 code(wtf) anyway:

    One interesting outcome with a few of the codes was this...I wonder which fuel/ign maps it has though..
