    SUPERCAR KILLER?

Transcript

You want a supercar killer, this sleeper will embarrass just about anything on the street with only $9 in mods. The foundation is a 2012 to 2016 Mercedes e 63 AMG. You can grab one right now for around $16, which is insane considering what you're getting. A hand built 5.5 liter twin turbo v eight straight from AMG. These things are absolute monsters from the factory, but the real magic happens once you start turning up the boost. Throw on a set of bigger upgraded turbos since the stock ones can only handle 650 horsepower. Upgrade to a high performance intercooler, so keeps intake temps ice good, so you can push more boost safely without heat soaking the engine. And finish it off with a proper e 85 tune to pull it all together and take full advantage of that ethanol power. With just these upgrades, you're looking at around 800 horsepower. Enough to gap supercars while hauling groceries in full luxury? It's brutally best, all while staying sleeper silent until you floor it. So tell me, would you build this four door supercar killer?
