How to build a 700 horsepower supercar killer for around $15,000 in mods. The foundation? A 2003 to 2,009 Mercedes e 55 AMG. It's luxurious, but packs a v eight supercharged engine with lots of potential. Now drop in pulley upgrades. An upper pulley for 600 and a lower drive pulley for 400, spin the blower faster, and unlock Sirius Best. Back it up with a bigger heat exchanger for 600 to keep temps in check and a belt wrap kit for around 400 no you don't lose power to slip, but it doesn't stop there. A high flow intake for 800 plus long tube headers and a full exhaust system for 2,500. Add an upgraded intercooler pump for 300 and a full fuel system upgrade like injectors and a pump for around a thousand, so it never runs dry under boost. Now if you want to do it right and reliable forged pistons and rods for $3, we'll keep it on the road. Fresh bearings, gaskets, and machine work for another $2. Bottom end is now bulletproof, ready to hold real power without any issues. Top it off with a big 92 millimeter throttle body for 1,300 rank a no tune for 1,200 to squeeze every pony out. All in, just under $15,000. What you end up with is a 5.4 liter supercharged v eight pushing around 700 horsepower a true sleeper with claws sharp enough to take down a supercar. So tell me, would you build this beast?
