Mercedes-Benz M176/M177/M178 engine
The M176/M177/M178 is a petrol V8 engine range designed by Mercedes-AMG, replacing the M278 and M157 engines, and is based on the M133 engine. The engine has two BorgWarner turbochargers positioned between the two cylinder heads in a "hot-V" configuration. The fuel injection system uses Bosch's new piezo-electric direct fuel injectors that deliver five squirts of fuel per combustion cycle. The M176 engines are mostly assembled by machine with some components assembled by technicians at Untertürkheim manufacturing center outside Stuttgart. The M177 and M178 are individually assembled by the technicians in "one man, one engine" principle at the AMG manufacturing center in Affalterbach.
