Mercedes C36 AMG/E500/E400 Brake calipers & discs

I've heard that the stopping power of this setup is comparable to a Porsche 911.
C36 discs can be easily found on the market while the calipers are sometimes seen on ebay.
Installation difficulty is easy to medium, i am considering the installation on the front drivetrain only.
Cost of the components: around 450 euros

Omex Rev Limiter / Shift light

The 2.3 16 revs up to 7000, the maximum power is delivered between 4000rpmĀ  and 6800, the engine noise is also lovely between these intervals so i am sometimes abusing on that and it happened to me hitting 7000rpm before changing gear...For the sake of the engine i'll install a rev limiter and the Omex rev limiters do the job...

Take a look on what they propose, rev limiter, rev limiter with shift light, with launch control etc....

They are easy to install, you choose on which rpm you cut the ignition (For example 7000 rpm), then you set the shift light at 6500rpm and you get a notice so you can safely change gear without hitting the engine redline (7000).

I'm considering the Omex Revlimiter with launch control but it does not have unfortunately a shift light.
I'll give you my impression when i'll install it :)
