and the small 25shot NOS. I plan on going back when the track gets more
rubber.

There was a E55 with ASP pulley and LET software running 12flat, when
I ran 12.930 at best. I plan on going back when I get my cooling issue
fixed. Man this car is a blast to drive!

Nice run! Was that with the 25 shot? My car trapped 109 on a bunch of runs and a best of 110.67 this year but I couldn't best a 13.2 ET...most in the mid 13's with 2.5+ 60fts. I wanted a 12.99999 and now I'm jealous.

What kind of tires did you run and what was the launching method?

I only chimmed in as the couple dynos I ran put down identical whp and a little more torque. A few have questioned that my car makes the power(internet people) and seeing your dyno numbers and track times in a similar four door is cool and a form of confirmation for me. I wish it wasn't snowing here...

Nice work!

If I can get my cooling issue fixed (yes a leaking IC core like you) and a
set of drag radials I feel the car can be in the mid to low 12's like you.
If I can knock down .2 to .3 seconds off the 0-60 feet like you guys I
should be in that time range. I'm almost to the point of buying a new
aftercooler from the dealer.

Maybe I should upgrade to a bigger pulley too

I have a digital boost gauge installed, when I'm at the line I try to keep
the car at boost mode, wether be it at 1psi to 3psi and not at vacuum is
my method. Leaving the transmission to speed shift or at D I've never
seen any difference.

Rey, nice to see that your in the 12's. I can probably get you the drags as they are in my friends house the ones i used. Let me know when your going to the track again, I want to take my truck. I just dyoned the truck at ******* with a small tune and the truck was impressive.

Sorry I didn't answer all your questions, and thanks for the compliments,
I ran and rolled out on the same Nitto 25540ZR17 555's but at the track
I ran it at 15psi of air.

Speaking of the devil! Que vola Rolly? Don't go to the track yet, there isn't
enough rubber laid down enough onthe track yet, I think by Feb should be
good to go.

Is the 185mm pulley still available? I thought they weren't... and if I were
to go with this pulley I can't spray anymore, which I really like I know
the IAT's are dropping like there's no tomorrow...

As far as the digital boost gauge, this is the one I went with:

http://www.dynotunenitrous.com/store...?idproduct=131

And here is some day/night camera pictures. I'm working on betters pics

I'm gonna PM shortly about that 185mm pulley...

Doesn't this pulley does 22-23psi? I gained 3-4psi with my 25shot that'll
land me over 25psi which would send the car to limp mode?

I've seen 22psi on the 178mm pulley on 60's deg and 25shot...

Thanks for link...can you post how you installed it? Also loungn14 uses I believe a 35 shot with his 185mm so if he can so can you...keep in mind prior to NOS just using 185mm and LET tune he put up record number of 12.40s prior to hitting 12.30s after other mods on heavy 19" rims too

AMG Jerry also used a 35 shot with a bigger crank pulley and cams...so I don't see why you can't

Interesting, is loungn14 (Jake?) have stock heads? I know Jerry has
ported and polished his head and he opened up his compression to lower
the boost, hence he was running the biggest pulley on a lower psi but
the same power. Now you got me thinking of 185mm pulley and retain
the small 25shot. I was going to track it again at 50 & 75 shot just to
see what it can do...

I followed the traditional way, install the psi sensor at the y splitter
after the aftercooler, ran the lines to the dashboard like any boost gauge.

Jerry (and now andy as he bought the car) is running a 192 pully with the ported polished heads.

I have the 185 with standard engine build. I can spray a 35 shot with no problems.

where are you spraying? (wheres the jet)

Interesting, did you see any PSI gains with and w/out spraying when you
have the 185mm pulley? You and I are gonna be doing some talking about
this

Be honest who PM'd you? Andrew? Tony? Rolly? It's all good I don't care
who wins but as long as we just meet up and do it in a safe enviroment.

And the only C63 I've seen was at the autoshow and on the TV

yup, doesnt matter who wins and it defintely has to be in a safe zone. I live in the Kendall area. I was thinking of a GTG for a while now but haven't been able to find fellow amg owners in the w204 section which is where I usually gather till I came here and wow, never imagined the c55/32 section was full of M.I.A peeps!!

a H&K tonight at a steal! And the fact my C32 is dirty crusty as hell

Oh my you have no idea, the last time I gathered with these guys,
Andrew gotten a huge meet, the first one was almost a dozen of us and
the 2nd one (I missed) was almost two dozen, minus a guy everyone
who wanted to kick his ***...
