Dom Tucci Drives his Mercedes 190E with a Twin-Turbo EcoBoost V6

In 2023 we shared the unique 1989 Mercedes 190E Evo tribute built by Dom Tucci at Tucci Hot Rods in Marcy, New York. Under the hood Dom swapped a twin-turbocharged 3.5L EcoBoost (D35) V6 from a Ford Raptor. Thanks to upgraded BorgWarner EFR6758 turbochargers, the motor produces 700 hp (514 kW). Behind the V6 is a Quicktime bellhousing, ACT twin-disc clutch, Bowler Carbon Edition Tremec TKX five-speed manual transmission, and Subaru STI differential. To help control the power Dom installed Wilwood Superlite six-piston calipers with 14-inch rotors in front and Superlite four-piston calipers with 13-inch rotors in back. Listen to Dom explain how he built the car to Rob Dahm from Top Gear in the video below.
