[W126 Coupe] FYI more horsepower

[Jonathan Hodgman]

I'll just say the last metric engine I encountered w/ the Euro 10-1 pistons
along w/ intake mods & full custom exhaust made 235hp @ the rear wheels.  My
white coupe w/ 9-1's MB tri Y's and a s... exhaust after that made 227.  My
AMG w/ 10-1's, cams, full tri Y w/ Cat and AMG muffler made 250 and 297 @
the wheels....and that was with 200K on the clock.

I hope to be putting an engine together for Richard this fall.
