Sorry for not updating. There hasn't been much accomplished since the last time I posted. Here is what happened.
A few weeks ago I found out I was running low fuel pressure compared to a Kompressor.

My stock fuel was at 58psi and what the car needs is 75psi. Here is a video with my friends kompressor.

I was going to Potomac to see if I could source a Fuel pump, Fuel pump module and the fuel pressure sensor found on Amg Kompressors except the W211 and W219. These can be put in with not much headache. The module is pretty much a stand alone system. I would just need to supply power and ground, wire the pressure sensor in and plumb everything. The module varies the pulse width to the pump as fuel demand is requested and registered through the fuel pressure sensor. Very basic but would eliminate the need for a FMU or pump upgrade(which i had) with adjustable regulator. Short story the car doesnt like driving in 100 degree weather with stop and go traffic. The car already is running at a higher temp. to begin with but wont over heat. I ended up taking the electric fan out I found the V6 mechanical fan clears the S/C assembly

. I will end up going to a larger custom aluminium multicore radiator to take care of my high temps.

I ended up putting the Walbro Fuel pump i had inline after the stock pump. Ran an AEM fuel pressure regulator and bumped the psi up. Every thing ended up fitting inside the plastic guard. I didnt drive that night. The very next day the walbro took a dump

Right now I am running the stock pump with the regulator. The pump is doing fine surprisingly

I have been driving the car every day but never go WOT. When I do go the car pulls hard but the MIL comes on and pulls timing quickly after.

Fill ups are happening more frequent Im getting 15mpg
