Holy smokes! WOW! The SC Whine is so loud and noticeable even on that rollout. I'm guessing it's the ASP 180mm pulley thats the cause for that. Great exhaust sound as well. One of the best S55s I've heard and seen to boot, it also goes like stink. 
The FD Shorty Headers and 3inch straight pipe/resonator delete makes it sound so mean. I just saw the drag video, so mean. I wonder how many WTF looks you get when you romp on that throttle ShangoAshe and people stare. lol

[quote=Viet_Amg408;3738306]always moarrrrrrrrrrrr POwerrrrrrrrrrrr..... 
well it also depend on your age...if you in your 40's or 50's with 500 BHP .its too much power...
Are you kidding me? 500hp is just entry level. The older i get, the faster i want to go. I am in my 40s and have never been satisfied with any of my cars performance. I have a blown '97 Z28 w/about 450hp and i have a nice set of heads to add another 100 if i can ever get around to putting them on. Part of the fun i have is doing my own performance work. Goal for the Z is around 650hp, not too hard if i add a cam too. My daily driver of the moment is an '07 S550 (382 or so hp) and it is just not enough. Anyone know of any performance mods for these cars (w221s) yet?
When you get into your 40s or 50s, come back and tell me if you feel "if you in your 40's or 50's with 500 BHP .its too much power..."
Old hot rodders never stop, they just keep going faster.

I agree with what you said, it really just depends on the person!
anyways, thanks for reviving this thread! I've almost forgotten about it...
I think it's about time I give an update on my car. Recently I've been looking into a LOT of parts for my car. My friend's shop just opened recently and it's great to have the convenience. Although it really doesn't help with the bank account
So what I had previously installed on my car was 180mm Pulley, Headers, and a Powerchip Tune.
My car is being outfitted with an 82mm Throttlebody, New Custom made intake, Methanol/Water Injection kit, Phenolic Spacers, CM30 Pump, and a new custom stainless exhaust from Primary Cat Back.
My previous 1/4 Mile time (12.015) was not too bad considering the fact that I have all-season tires on. Also, with my 60 foot time in the 2's
I'm sure if I used a set of Drag Radial I can easily be in the 11's.
I will keep you all updated with the progress of my car. BTW, I will be getting a touch-up dyno tune in early-mid May just to make sure everything adjusts well.
Regardless I can not wait!

Your going to have to retune after all these new mods.
