My plan

**benzboy** · 12-14-2005, 10:16 PM

I know everyone says they are going to do it..... I am going to supercharge my C280, I have found an Eaton M62 on Ebay for a reasonable price, and am going to buy it, hopefully my credit card will forgive me. Then when it gets to NZ I am going to get my mates dad who is an engineer to fab up the pipe work, few questions, what do I need to move/change on existing engine... err thats the only question actually.

Cheers
Tom

wow, dude,
u are making it happen.
good for u. keep us here on 202 updated about your progress! i am sure we all are interested.

by the way, i drive a c280 as well.

**benzboy** · 12-15-2005, 01:27 AM

Will do, point of no return will be tomorrow when I click the small button on ebay known as Buy now

**Pagz** · 12-15-2005, 09:50 AM

Wait wait ......Are you sure you want a SC?...I can sway you towards a turbo instead?

where abouts are you going to mount it?

any plans for how the belt system will go?

Nice plate,have you purchased it??,heh i was going to get "ADIKT" or "ADICT"
but thought it might be seen as A-DIC or DIC-T.....LOL so have gone off that idea!...

thats a great idea, but given that your car is right hand drive, are you sure there is enough space for the roots to be fitted next to the engine(by this, I assume you have a 104 engine)? second, the M62, which I believe is off of a 3.8L GM engine, might be to much for your 2.8L, since the roots SC are specifically matched to engine's dispacement. search the site for POWERDYNE and read my posts on supercharging the C280(I6), and see if this is the way you would like to go instead. I would love to see the final product with the eaton(if thats possible), but I would hate to see you or anyone else waste their money on something thats not doable.

Hey, been reasearching for about a month on this, the M62 is designed for 2.5 to 4l applications, so would be perfect, there is plenty of room on the exhaust side to mount the kompressor, and use existing route to get to manifold ie over cam cover. Also, have searched POWERDYNE, but cant find the info, would you be able to post a link. An no 23k, I want a supercharger

and I will buy the p/plate when the system is done, haha

An no 23k, I want a supercharger

Fair enough

we'll have to go head to head at meremere somtime!!!

....if i ever finish mine

**benzboy** · 12-15-2005, 12:36 PM

Sounds good, how much power are you aiming for in your soon to be turbo benz?

**Pagz** · 12-15-2005, 01:02 PM

its hard to say,maybe 40-50 Hp more without ECU changes,but only a guess...cant wait to get it on the dyno!

the aim is 300+ at the engine,but will need alot more attention to ECU/fuel

**benzboy** · 12-15-2005, 01:36 PM

Im hoping to get a 45-50% increase with mine, is this a resonable figure guys? Will eventually source out a 3.2 block also, but with just the blower hoping for about 280-300hp at fly

**Pagz** · 12-15-2005, 02:01 PM

hmmm 100hp gain...im not sure how far you will need to go to achieve that....

jnenad16 should be able to shed some light?...

rollinrealbig · 12-15-2005, 06:09 PM

Eaton M62 ... ive asked a shit load of questions ecause I was thinking of doing that on my C230, but its too big for it.

im thinking of and M45 maybe ... but ill worry about that when i actually understand more of what im about to do LoL.

yea keep me updated on your project I would sure love to see it all work out for you!!!

and 23K (or should i say "23T") - your crazy man! LoL

but its cool to see ppl doing that on 202's.

**c280nz** · 12-15-2005, 07:18 PM

need bigger injectors and need to run a additional piggyback computer, say like an afc apexi like 23k has got.
you will need around 300cc injectors.
you will need to do some air flow calculations to figure out what pully ratio you will need to flow sufficient air.
need custom pullies most probebly.
will most likely have to seriously look at if your tranny will be up to the task.
the m104 block 2.8ltr, is good up to around 300hp under FI with correct tuning and ignition retard, which you will most probebely do using your ignition retard dial (hopefully its enough)
i have a few pictures of supercharged m104 but hosting pictures is so complicated.
i also have an excel spread sheet used to calculate fueling at 5.5psi on a supercharged m104 280 with an apexi, so if your struggling let me know, and ill either email you or talk on the phone

rollinrealbig · 12-15-2005, 07:34 PM

ok,

so i will need:

piggy computer

pulleys

eaton m45

300cc injectors

intake piping

IC (???)

exhaust (???)

thats alot of bank - but its a mercedes so i better get used to it from the start.

I have an auto tranny (5-speed model) will that handle all those upgrades ?

... Give me some sites on where this stuff can be bought.

**c280nz** · 12-15-2005, 07:34 PM

heres some pics i found i had already posted up on another supercharging post

rollinrealbig · 12-15-2005, 07:38 PM

so you have to convert your TB all the way over there ?

**c280nz** · 12-15-2005, 07:41 PM

i was talking about a c280, not sure bout a 2.3l. maby use a 23k engine setup

rollinrealbig · 12-15-2005, 07:47 PM

yea that would be more simple,

but where can i get all the stuff i need ...

like pullies, injectors, piggybank CP ? ? ?

**benzboy** · 12-15-2005, 08:40 PM

Those pics are that basis for my plan, very similar setup in mind, that is an Eaton m62 on that setup

nenad doesn't even run his 202 anymore but he's such a great help on here.
the forum should give him a title.
