At least you're on the other side coast, so I'll probably not see you during my training.....

HPS respectfully declined to be involved with the MP122H upgrade but are rooting for me. Now it's between Jim and I. I'm going for it!

So that's how you were able to buy yourself a benz. I guess it's fairly lucrative for you. Can I get an extra blower to heat my house and a half dozen carne asada's with salsa verde to go?

Robert,
I found some info regarding to Kleemann sc on an 55 engine that might help you in making your decision whether or not you should go with kleemann sc. In my opinion based on these info......I say no. That's alot of money but not much more gain.
"W210 E55 Dyno Results..Questions??
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Looking over a friends dyno results prior to and after installation of Kleemann SC and Kleemann header and downpipe exhaust system on his E55 has left me with some questions.
Dyno results prior to mod is 296.4 rwhp 318.1 rwtq(stock)
After Kleemann parts listed above dyno results are 420.9 rwhp 418.6 rwtq.
Now on Kleemann site with SC only mod crank would reach 500hp and 482 tq.
But after installing headers and exhaust one would think that the dyno results would be higher?? Their site indicates and increse of 40-60hp at crank.
With all mods on this car the numbers would add up to approx. 540-560hp at crank per their website.
Seems like the dyno results at 420.9 rwhp and 418.6 rwtq is somewhat low?
One piece of information that may be pertinent is that dyno was performed 2 days after Kleemann installation.
Any of you have ideas or input?? Do dyno results get better after some elaspe time? Dont get me wrong the beast pulls and will jerk your neck backwards, just concerned.

dude dont you think you should check what my back ground is before you challenge me?
I dont talk about racing to much because I'm so tired of racing every weekend. and I wanted to take time off to spend time with my new baby. I have been tracking my miata and S2000 for about 7 years and I been doing cart racing also on the off season. I race my cars at Infinion race way, thunder hill, and laguna. I also have a home in vegas, so racing in vegas wont be a problem. are you sure you want to challenge me? I can have a Lawyer to write an agreement.
I have been racing for a long time and met a lot of BS people like you that talk and cant do the walk! I will take that C55 off your hands and put it out off it missery. make sure you have your pink slip cuz I know you car aint paid.
you wanna try me
Try sending a PM to Itcrashed, m&m and he will remember that I dont BS
You still want to Challenge me?

AMGSC challenged people to a 1/4 mile challenge with a 3 second lead and a track challenge, and said to put up or shut up, but what is he willing to put up? He should be willing to put up his pink for his 2 extra cylinders.

Thank you for another legit challenge. AMGSC is living in a fantasy land, so of course he won't challenge you. He'll insist on installing a n2o sytem or something and having a pro driver pilot his car before he's willing to back up all his big talk with a pink slip.

having more power means that you should be able to control it. and for him to be a nubie on the track you think he handle it? no way! I have raced SRT 10 vipers, vettes, ferrari's on the track and if your not a skilled driver you will end up on the wall. he thinks dumpping money will make him a better driver on the track guess again.

In case you did'nt get the word. I AM GOING to the track. I've signed up already. I'm calling EVOSPORT tommorrow to get final pricing on the Quaife followed by a possible immediate install. Gotta have the traction if I'm going the hairpins. It's in VEGAS and it's free. You're welcome to join but I doubt you'd want to face me on the track.
Edit: I just checked the event thread and I've been bumped! They say their "pretty much booked" CC, Did you have anything to do with this? What happened to our planned face-off?

Let me make some Phone calls, I know I can call Willow Spring and have my manager make some arrangements for our race club to use the track for a couple hrs. to do some testing. I might have to pay $5000 to do it. but I can sell your car for $15000 and make $10000..... hmm
you want me to make arrangements it wont cost you anything but your car?
you have the choice on racing my C32 or my track car S2000

You were supposed to sign up weeks and weeks ago.
They only had 10 spots, and by the time you "found" the thread it was too late to sign up. It seems like the pattern always repeats itself for you.
You talk all about the party, but you're always late to the party.

re-read the thread, you weren't "bumped".

I just called my manager and he told me willow springs will do it for us for $3250.00 for the whole day, any week day closed session for my team mates to practice even if we dont race down south. I was thinking it would be more $ but that works for me.
