The passenger side turbocharger ingested some foreign material and it wrecked the compressor blades. had to pull the motor out and while we were there replaced a lot of components. The main upgrade were AMG Turbochargers from an SL65.

+1 Extra credit points for not having black wheels. Personal preference.

The only thing black wheels are good for is hiding the incredible amount of brake dust that stock MB pads throw off.

I really like the clean look of your car. Hope the turbo "upgrade" works out well.
