C55 guys, have you modded yet?
Hi guys, it seems as though I see a lot of threads regarding mods for the C32 but very few of the C55's modded. I'm interested in possibly doing an ECU tune, headers and airbox. Also when LET is certified I'm probably going to get a Quaife LSD in Houston.
Let's post what you've done and what improvements that you've seen to your cars.

Hello I have a few mods and the best imop is ecu,headers and crank pulley going n/a. The airbox I dont think it does much. Maybe the money I spent with all those mods I could have gone s/c. But I didn't want to go threw any headaches.

Hey cldriver I did a dyno with just renntech ecu and Airbox and got 314rwhp. When installed kleemann headers i got 330rwhp & 332wtrq. I have not been able to take to the 1/4 track but did take it to 1/8 track with lots of traction problems i was able to run a 8.0 at 87mph. I am running on a 50 shot of nos. Without nos i ran about 8.5. With nos i dynoed right about 390rwhp after tunning it for about 2 hours. I think it can get 400rwhp being with the engine cold. Latest mode was the ams crank pulley and it feels a little better off the launch. I need to dyno again and maybe talk to those guys from Evotech b/c ive seen there ecu programs are good. I think renntech is more concervitive compared to evotech.pm me if any questions I am always willing to help and be helped hahaha. Happy holidays. Roly
