- A couple of weeks ago i asked you guys in temporary video what you wanted me to film more of on Thors Mercedes 190e.
Well, I've summarized all your questions and together Thor and I did our best to answer everything.
In this almost 50 minutes long video you will learn what it takes to build a 700 whp strong Mercedes 190e with a turboconverted v8. We will discuss engines, reinforcement on drivetrain and chassi, suspension, unconventional engine cooling, and much more.
We will also discuss what Thor would have done differently if he started the project from scratch today.
Hopefully this will save you both time and money if you plan on building something similar yourself in the future.
Also:
If you live in southwest of Sweden and have an interesting car yourself that you want to make a similar video of.
Contact me here or by DM on Instagram at Dyno Channel.
In the video i mention another clip where i discuss engine swaps and engine mounts.
You'll find that here:

Looking forward to showing you guys more of the Scandinavian car culture.
Cheers!
I cannot believe this engine only needed stronger valve springs to handle 700whp, thats AMAZING
Love this build. Down to earth, homebrew engineering that works and doesn't break the wallet. This is what car hobby is all about!
The swedes are amazing to put all kind of a shix together and make it RUN.
The registration plate was genius👍🏻
M119.960 is one of the best versions, early 500 Mercedes models e.g. ones with the last of the cis injected versions. 5 litres, closed deck, though these have the dual distributor setups and being cis doesn't come with fuel rails etc, but that stuff is easily swapped with later cop and port injection parts.
Riktigt bra video, intressant att få se och höra om bygget i detalj! 👍
Kul att du gillade det 😊
Definitely going to be borrowing some of this knowledge for my 190
Thanks for the detailed video👍🏾 keep up the quality content
FINALLYYY 😍 AWESOME!!!
Nice Build. Garagetastic sells subframe bushings and reinforcement plates for w201
Thanks. Good to know 👍
Nice build ! Why not build the oilpan like a fuel cell, ore walls that keep the Oil from flowing back during G forces, preventing to destroy engine... Just a suggestion...
Good suggestion, but the problem is that during very long lateral GeForces like in drifting, the oil stays in the heads. This is a common issue for V engines, any more than 1h lateral force and all the oil stays in one head (It can even climb upp there from the oilpan)
I think this coupled with the pan being in the front, it's just a matter of time before the pump start sucking air, and the bearings will get damaged over time
Nice built greetings from Finland. I have w124 wagon with 2.5 m111 turbo 580whp. I have new turbo so hopefully more power next season.😄👍🏻
It was very funny to watch with a translator. Very interesting, I really liked the idea of an inverted rear coilovers. The rear suspension turned out to be much simpler than I thought. From the front, too, everything is easy, but I think that I will not move the front rack further, because our fellow policemen immediately suspect something is wrong. My engine will not be powerful at the beginning of about 200 horsepower, but it will be enough for my purposes. As soon as I collect everything (it will be quite a long time) I would like to visit you, but I think it's almost impossible (practically). Thank you very much for making this issue, I will continue to watch you)ai
The main thing is that I would make the suspension smooth
200hp in a 190e would be fun too. especially if you make it light.
Where do you live?
@@dynochannel I live in Russia in Kaluga
I used hockey pucks for motor mounts in my 87 300zx with 2jz swap. 😂 works great!
This mercedes has quite some BMW in it😀😊
What an awesome car.
i have the 190 e in Egypt but I don't have that money to build it :) good job bro
Such a cool combination of MB and BMW parts
Snyggt!
Love the 190e content! Awesome build
Good afternoon! First of all, great video!! Thanks for explain everything. Can i ask you what mufflers are you using? Sounds good! Thanks!!
They are from the swedish autoparts store "Biltema" basicalla just cheap 3" full flow round mufflers. The nice snappy sound is primarily due to the equal lengt exaust maifolds and the light weith flywheel
thanks for your answer!! i appreciate
Fantastic video and information. I am a big fan of the m119. I have a 500E and where fitting a manual M119 to a w201. The 500E is 6 litres. Personal, I would stick with the M119 in your project. I think the rear sump and move engine back a little more. Unfortunately I don’t think a standard sump is available. The w140 sump is more central, which won’t help you. I would like to get my sump behind the front crossmember?
I love the looks of it being a 190, but listening to the build I can't help but think if you are going for function and not set on it having a 190 body just go e46 and save yourself a ton of money and time.
I really want to build an 190e but it feels like i need an e46 parts car to get it off the ground. (especially as in my part of the world the only ones available for project car prices are the 2.3
Hi Thor, first of all big respect to what you build. Its not in my style, but also i am not a drifter and i am not planning to be one (too expensive hobby). I am planning a project like the 190E Evo HWA, but with a V8 engine. You said you had the M119 5.0 engine installed. Could you please tell me if you recommend the engine or if you recommend a different engine for such build. Turbo conversion (or maybe electric turbo) is a option in future, but not at the beginning. First i want to build the car as clean as possible, but a V8 is a must for me. I have a couple of CNC machines that i have build, like a industrial CNC Lathe conversion + big format CNC router which i will use to build my own Body parts after the 190e has been 3d scanner. I hope you will find a couple minutes of your time to help me out with the Engine choice. Thanks in advance and best regards from Poland. Denis
Love the vid, excellent review👍❤
Thank you very much 👍
I have a 190E with M102 2300cc, Carburetor, and I'd like to add a turbo on the same engine
Can’t wait to build a nice turbo e36
Great video guys , so I want to do the same to my W202 2.3 Kompressor, would your engine take 500.00 BHP without any modifications to the engine?
Thanks. Both the old and new engine is mostly stock. only modified valve springs to enable higher rev limit.
If the new engine only is 500hp i know Thor will be very disappointed 😂
I'm curious, did you ever run the car with no hood to see if it was trapped air causing the over heating? I don't see a good fan shroud and there is no hood vent. I have a c107 chassis drift car and I'm thinking about going to a n119 at some point. I can tell you with some mods the dual a arm front end works very well. I still have a steering box and pretty good angle with 50mm extended arms.
The hood is open all along window. So the air flow should be very good. And it wasn't a problem with the straight 6 BMW engine
Good question. As Thor already answered the hood is open a bit in the back for better airflow. Similar to what is done on the trunk lid. 👍
@@Webrexxx did you ever look at drive pressure in the exhaust manifold? Maybe you are just pushing too much through the stock manifolds over 700hp? Timing too aggressive? I'm also curious if you went in and checked/opened up ring gap before throwing high boost at it?
Tja!
Några tips på vem jag vänder mig till för att få till svänghjul, koppling & ZF-låda till min M119?
Tack
Brandtab för växellådan.
Engdahl Motorsport för resten 👍
Hälsa från mig 😊
@@dynochannel Jag är sjukt tacksam gör svar!
Tack!
I have m103 2.6 but keeping car stock until it dies or I can get a 3.0 or 3.2 L M103. Looking to create a W201 Amg replica since most ppl will go Evo 1 or 2
Sounds like a cool project 👍
Какую коробку передач вы использовали? Спасибо
Where did you buy this bodykit from? a link or website name would be appreciated
I think it was from Ebay, a comapny in lituania. Search for 190E AMG bumper
What Ecu is connected to this and how did you connect it up?
@@sal97_1 previously VEMS, but now MaxxECU
Very nice built👍🤌🏎🏎✌️
Why did the crank come out sideways?
Jag har sett att många som bygger drifting bilar av 190 kör med 2,6liters chassi spelar de någon roll eller funkar det med 2,0 eller är de olika på något sett och på vilka?
Fram är de samma grejer, bak har 2.6an i princip en W124 diff och drivaxlar. 2.0ans bakaxel håller inte. De gjorde knappt 2.6amn heller. Har som sagt dödat säker 10 hardyskivor och 3 diffar.
Är ordet torsendiff du söker? Fett bygge! håller själv på med ett 190E M104 bygge:)
Nej, det är en hydraulisk lamell diff.
why not swap the subframe to one like an s14
That would work to, Basiaclly the same style as BMWs

Jealous much?
@@Webrexxx did you help build this car bro I see you comment a lot about it. If so is there a way I can get in touch with you? I have an m119 I want to turbo but in an r129 chassis. I need help understanding the ecu that was used and what fabrication to the manifold was done, because I am by no means any expert. Hopefully you get back to me!
Yes, I'm the guy in the video ;)
You can find me if you Google Engdahl Motorsport
In summary, cut out all the Mercedes parts and replace with BMW?
Naw, its 50/50, best of both worlds
